100% Pure African Shea Butter from Ghana - Unrefined and Raw - 8oz

Kim Schmeits: This stuff is amazing! I am trying to move away from the really hard chemicals on my skin and moving to alternative moisturizing options. I make a moisturizer from this with coconut, jojoba, and a couple of drops of essential oil, and it is amazing. Makes your skin glow and really nourishes it. Since it is raw it does smell like shea butter and that is not the most appetizing scent but mix a drop or two of your favorite essential oil in and you are good to go! I am very happy that it is unscented because that means less chemicals. I hope this butter is ethically sourced because I really love it and will be ordering more.

emily: Great product. I use it on my T zone on my face during the winter when I get dry skin. The only down side is the weird smell. It does go away after you rub it in well. I have used this same product a couple of years ago but I don’t remember the strong smell with it.

JBear: I was skeptical when ordering this butter, but was pleasantly surprised when I used it upon arrival. Earthy, pleasant scent that feels smooth and silky upon application anywhere you need moisturizing (I use on face, arms, legs, and on split ends of my hair). Not heavily greasy/oily. It comes solid packed in container; just rub in a circular motion until you get desired amount (I repeat, depending on moisturizing need). The only issue I had was the container rim was slightly cracked upon receipt and breaking away as I pulled the lid off (I had a similar sized container to place the butter in). I'm glad I purchased this product!

Mal: This is amazing. I wasn’t expecting it to be so useful. I use it on my face and body and my skin glows. I had a really dry patch on my leg that I have been throwing lotion on 24/7 and within a couple of uses there was dramatic improvement. It’s also cheaper than any of the million lotions I have used. I will say that at first I wasn’t sure about the scent. It’s very earthy. But after a few uses it has really grown on me. I used it in my hair overnight and then washed it out and my hair has never felt so clean and soft. This is going to be a staple in my skincare from now on. I am very fair skinned and genetically have a high risk for melanoma so I am excited that it also acts as a sunscreen. I am really good about using sunscreen on my face everyday but only use it on my arms/shoulders/etc when I am swimming or going to be outdoors for an extended period of time. This is mainly laziness, but I moisturize everyday so the fact I can be protected without an extra step in my routine is fantastic. I’ll still apply sunblock when I’ll be in the sun for a while, but having that little bit of protection day to day is something I am really happy with. The price, the quality, and...

Fisherman: Absolute garbage, badly processed, full of chunks of Shea seeds. You can buy a better product for a fraction of the cost. Returned for refund.

kim s.kim s.: I appreciate the fact that this is pure, 100% shea butter. It is hands down the absolute best way to heal scratches, burns, and any other skin damage that might occur. When skin has been compromised, the sooner you apply the shea butter, the better. I like to apply it several times a day when I have emergency situations. For example, my dog scratched my face once. She was playing, and it happened unintentionally, but it still happened. I almost cried! But raw shea butter came to the rescue. I cleaned the scratch with soap, water, and tea tree oil. I then applied the raw shea butter six or seven times that day, and I continued applying it frequently on a daily basis for the rest of the week. To make a long story short, in two weeks time, the scratch was completely gone! No marks or scars were left behind at all. I must state that I also applied tumeric powder to the scratch for the first few days as well; that might’ve helped things, too. But the bottom line is that I have no scars on my face from that scratch—and it was a long one, about three or four inches.

Another time I was on the telephone and was checking on some food that was in the oven. I was so distracted that...
