Warm Weather & Heat Cautions
All solid butter products from ButterBath.com can soften or melt in warm temperatures. Shipping may also expose products to unpredictable temperature changes.
Opening Shipped Products
Please use caution when opening butter products during warmer months. Contents may have softened or liquefied. If you are concerned, place the product in the freezer for 30-60 minutes before opening.
Preventing Spills & Stains
Softened or liquefied butters can spill when opened, which may result in stained clothing or slippery surfaces. These cautions are meant to help you enjoy your products fully and safely.
Avoiding Heat Exposure
We recommend keeping solid butter products out of hot cars or other warm environments. Car interiors can easily exceed the melting point of natural butters. If melting occurs, simply place the product in the freezer for 30-60 minutes to re-solidify. This usually restores the smooth, original texture.
Shea Butter Crystallization
If you notice a grainy texture in products containing shea butter, please visit our Butter Crystallization Page. Shea is sensitive to even subtle temperature changes. Crystallization does not affect the product quality — only the feel.
Why This Happens
Because we only use the very best 100% natural ingredients — without preservatives or synthetic stabilizers — our butters behave exactly as nature intended. Your skin is your body's largest organ and the first line of defense, and we want you to have the very best ingredients always.
Need Help?
If you experience any heat-related issues that cannot be resolved, please let us know. We always want you to be completely happy with your ButterBath.com products.
