While other companies may throw away their less-than-perfect finished products, we prefer ours to go to loving homes!
Slightly Dented
Sometimes stock gets damaged in transit to us from the factory or if we're butter-fingered when getting orders packed, and so we are selling our slightly dented products off a little cheaper than normal.
'Bobbly'
Some Shade™ stock has come out a little 'bobbly'. This isn't a great skin feel as it's usually beautifully smooth to apply, but with a little TLC a loving home can make it quickly and easily gorgeous again - we just don't have the time to do this for you.
Shea butter is made up of many fatty acids, each with their own melting and solidifying pace. When manufacturing it is not always possible to quickly cool the batches in the same way as could be achieved when making the formula in small batches by hand, and when packed and then stacked, the cooling process can take a while, increasing the risk of the shea forming 'grains' (or as we affectionately call "Bobbles"). This is an interesting article which explains this phenomenon in more depth.
We're selling these at a discounted price because there's a little effort required on your part to get them back to silky smooth before you start using them again.
Please check out our dedicated Bobbly Sunscreen page for step by step instructions on how to make it perfect again at home.
