A gentle moment of comfort, just for you. AHOMKA pairs the soft floral notes of lavender with the fresh, lightly citrusy aroma of lemongrass in a rich shea body butter that helps moisturize and soften your skin. Made with unrefined Ghanaian shea butter produced by the women of Sabruka Shea Village, each 6 oz. (170 g) size brings heritage and everyday care together.
Inspired by the Ghanaian expression of comfort and well-being, Ahomka (Comfort) invites you to slow down and enjoy life’s quieter moments.
Soft lavender and fresh lemongrass come together in a delicate fragrance that feels both comforting and refreshing. Whether you are easing into your morning or setting aside time at the end of the day, Ahomka is a small invitation to care for yourself.
Choose a reusable coconut shell or a glass jar using the container selector before adding your body butter to the cart.
Our coconut shell containers are handcrafted in Ghana by our artisan partner, Akooshi, giving discarded coconut shells a new purpose. If you choose this option, the container can remain part of your home long after the last scoop, holding small keepsakes or finding another everyday use.
AHOTƆ (pronounced Ah-ho-toh), meaning peace, comfort, and ease in Twi, celebrates Ghanaian heritage, traditional skincare, and intentional self-care.
Rooted in the art of rest and renewal, each blend is made with rich, unrefined shea butter produced by the women of Sabruka Shea Village in Northern Ghana. Lightly scented and thoughtfully crafted, AHOTƆ brings a little everyday luxury to your routine while honoring the women and traditions behind it.
Rub a small amount between your palms to soften, then gently massage into your skin. Enjoy the light lavender-and-lemongrass scent and give yourself a moment to pause. A little goes a long way.
Caution: For external use only. Patch test before use. Discontinue use if irritation occurs.
Ayebea’s Sankofa Marketplace buys directly from Sabruka Shea Village Foundation. Choosing a product made with our Sabruka-sourced shea butter helps sustain that direct purchasing relationship.
