Raw Shea Butter - 100% Pure African Shea Butter for Hair and Body | with Natural Smoky Scent | Unrefined Moisturizer for Dry Skin, DIY Lip Balm, Body Butter and Soap 1lb Bar

Absolutely fantastic quality. Im not breaking out from it. Very natural raw smell which is indicative of its natural raw nature. So pure that I even used it on my face. The smoky smell from this product is normal. The shea butter was fresh.

Prior to purchasing this, I had only ever used the yellow shea butter by a different company. While waiting for this one to arrive I bought a tiny jar of the white butter at Whole Foods because I was completely out. While I like the other brand, I absolutely LOVE Better Shea Butter's brand; it is not whipped (the Whole Foods brand was) and was soft, pliable, easy to apply to my skin. Sometimes I get excited when I get a new product and tend to use too much, so I took it easier with this and it paid off. I only use a small amount for skin moisturization and it does moisturize superbly. I will admit to a rather complicated skin care routine as I am a product junkie, but here is what I do to keep my body smooth and soft: argan oil goes on my skin first thing after a shower, then shea butter, then Kiehl's body lotion. I have experimented with various butters and oils; coconut oil (too greasy and does not absorb well), avocado butter (good, but greasier than shea), cocoa butter (very greasy but does the job), sesame oil (terrible, does not absorb at all and leaves skin strangely dry beneath the oil), olive oil (will do in a pinch when I am out of argan oil). But shea butter is my all-time favorite because it has a bit of sun protection in it - my fair skin does not burn but turns a nice golden color. All that said, I didn't know what I was missing by using the yellow butter rather than the white! The texture is smoother and does not harden even in my air-conditioned house. It absorbs into the skin even better than the yellow and this brand better than the other white butter I bought (AAA brand). It is a massive amount that I am sure will take me through the summer. And even though temperatures here in the South are in the upper 80s right mow, this chunk-o-butter arrived only soft, not melted though it had been on a carrier vehicle all day. It would have even been okay with me if it were melted but nice that it wasn't. I had some pesky dry skin flaking off my legs (why is it that legs dry out more than arms even when less exposed to the elements? One of life's mysteries...). Even with exfoliation and my meticulous skin care routine the condition persisted. However, this shea butter has significantly reduced the problem with just two applications and I fully expect it to be "cured" with several more uses. This is real shea butter, folks - the best I've used. The price is actually a steal too. I can't comment on use for hair or face. My hair is too fine to withstand heavy oils and butters but I bet that someone with thicker or more coarse hair would benefit greatly from it. My skin is pretty oily right now so I can only see myself using it there in the wintertime when skin is drier. I am greatly impressed with this company's customer service. Isabella has been right on top of things with personal emails thanking me for my order and information on downloading recipes. That she has taken time to do this with each and every person who places an order speaks volumes about her business ethic. I had pored over the reviews for this shea butter as well as other brands and was satisfied that all the reviews were genuine. She also responded to the few negative reviews with grace. This is a company who believes in its product and cares about its customers, and I am happy to recommend this outstanding product.

The shipping was fast and the shea butter arrived well-packaged and in fine condition. The shea butter is very good quality. I saw some reviews that "it stinks". I don't think it stinks and neither does my boyfriend. It has a nutty smell. You do have to get used to it but it's not unpleasant to me, however I suppose that can be a personal preference. I have found this shea butter heals the skin. I LOVE it as a facial moisturizer, because it doesn't clog my pores. Coconut oil always made me break out. And I've had skin that could easily break out with most moisturizers, including jojoba oil. Apparently shea butter is a ZERO on the comedogenic scale of 0 to 5 (coconut oil is a 4 which explains to me why it clogged my pores and broke me out every time I tried to use it). I was a bit wary to use it on my face, but I can now say after use for a couple of weeks that I had no breakout at all, and my skin is looking wonderful - I especially love using it as an eye cream. It really improves the skin around the eye area and doesn't irritate my eyes, unlike the many expensive eye creams I've used, which did jack s*** for my eye area. This makes my skin healthy. It heals cuts and wounds. It is great for hands, feet, everything, and ALL natural. I don't like the recipes to add it to coconut oil because for me, coconut oil just cheapens the wonderful rich shea quality. I mixed it with lavender essential oil and use it as my face and eye cream. Totally will buy this again. The free ebook comes as soon as you enter the confirmation code from your order, so it was prompt. While I didn't use all the recipes, it's nice to have some guides on how to mix it up. I will use it with many essential oils for various uses. Great product, great service. I do wish it was a little less expensive, but other than that, 5 stars! UPDATE JULY 30, 2015 I'm pregnant with our first baby (30 weeks - over 7 months) and used this as a pure moisturizer throughout, it has worked nicely, still never causes any breakouts either. I use it on my belly, and any areas where women get stretch marks, after every shower. So far, my skin is supple and never has itched (I hear many pregnant women get itchy skin on their bellies because the skin is stretching). I make sure to drink lots of water and use my shea butter on my skin, and have felt quite comfortable, so I like this a lot. I've already ordered a couple of times, and will certainly order again. Good value, great product, and has many uses! A favorite for me (

I got this product last April and immediately requested a refund. It is not pure Shea butter; it looks greenish, and has some chunky pieces, which give me the feeling that it is mixed with something that has a different melting temperature
