I always melt it a little to soften it, then store it in an air tight glass jar & store it in my refrigerator. It lasts a alot longer.

I store mine in the original plastic container it was shipped in. It keeps just fine at room temperature and has not separated or anything like that. Hope this helps! :)

If you plan to use it, I store ours on the counter top in an area out of the way.If you're talking long term storage without use, I would really clean it and then place in a cabinet out of the way.

It says on it to store as regular butter. If u put it in the fridge it will become very hard. So i usually store it in room temp, sometime in fridge but if I know I will use it today I take it out in the morning and leave it on the counter to soften.

On average Shea Butter is usually good for about 2 years. Just keep it in a cool place, and make sure that you never leave the lid off. If you happen to experience extreme warm temps you may want to pop it into the fridge or wine chiller if you have one. When Shea Butter turns rancid, you'll be able to smell it, that's for sure! The smell resembles (to me) spoiled milk & feta cheese. Gross! Plus the consistency will also change. I'm speaking from experiences with other brands I've tried. Not this one in particular. Hope this helps.

I prepare my Shea butter by scooping out chunks into a glass bowl, and using a dedicated blender to make smooth. Then I would add any additional oils, i.e. olive or grapeseed that I like and essential oil of choice. Blend again until all combined and the consistency is smooth. I store or in a glass container.

Best to store them in zip lock or in container with good fitting lid. Store in cool, dry place.

I store my Pau D Arco in a resealable bag in the refrigerator. I was told that was the best way to keep it fresh and potent. It seems to stay a little moist. Good luck if your treating for Candida. Keep your sugar and starch intake down and it will help you even more.

It's stiff but if you want to soften, do it gently in a double boiler. Heat will break down the properties of the shea butter if you aren't careful.

Add a spoonful to hot clean bath water in the tub, after you bathe or shower, a natural bath oil...still messy , but for me better that trying to rub it on to every inch of my body, and I do want it on every inch!

I'm pretty a texture like yogurt should be fine. I have never tried it but I would not hesitate to store it in the container.

I store mine in a plastic container, otherwise known as a dough bucket which has a tight seal when closed, and keep it in the pantry. No refrigeration is necessary.

I put the box in a ziploc bag. If I will be storing for a longer period of time I would put it in a Mason jar. Hope this helps ;)

Use only on well cleansed skin and Vit C after. Protect your roller. I pour alcohol over it and let it dry without touching counter etc. Then store in its plastic case. RN

There was an expiration date on the one I purchased. I am not sure if refrigeration will prolong it. Sorry I can't help much. The vendor was very good at sending emails regarding shea butter and it's use. I can't remember if the email explained how to store it.

Best way to store it is in a plastic tote so as to not compress it. Keeping it compressed over extended periods does indeed harm this insulation. Keep it dry and expanded, and stuff it for travel.

I would suggest getting glass jars. I got large ones on amazon (not sure if I'm allowed to write brand name) that have an easy to lift off lid that also seals. They have three different sizes, including a shorter rounder one with a wide opening that would work much better for your use of these jars. I think the acrylic would scratch. I bought these for my daughter to store hair bands, hair ties and q-tips.

Keep it out of sunlight and store it in a cool, dry, and dark place. It doesn't matter where really, I use my pantry.
