Naturise African Shea Butter Raw Organic - Unrefined Ivory 100% Pure - Natural Moisturizer for Hand, Hair, Skin and Body - Base For Homemade Body Butter, Lotion and Soap - 1 Lb Bar,

I have been getting into making my own beauty products because I am tired of the scents and chemicals in the ones on the market and shea butter is a very common product in many of them. I chose this brand for many reasons but mostly because of the organic, unrefined, fair trade and pureness of the product itself. Upon receiving the butter I opened it and noticed that it is packaged inside the bag and that is wonderful because it is a soft product and that extra protection is appreciated. The butter is a soft cream, almost white color and soft to the touch (see photo, I keep it in that plastic container so it is not included). The scent is very subtle and wonderful on its own but it also takes essential oils very nicely and evenly. I added a few ingredients to make lotion bars (see other photo) and it melted, blended, formed and solidified beautifully. I know that this one pound package will last for quite as while as it is high quality to you do not need much to get results. It is 100% pure African Shea butter, vegan, gluten free, non GMO, organic and is unrefined. It has a melting point of 80 degrees F so store it accordingly and in a dark place. I have had no issues with this product at all. There are so many uses it is crazy! LOL. I love using this right out of the shower or bath on my warm skin because it melts and works its way into my skin keeping it softer and moisturized (and I have dry skin). I don't think I can get a better product this this and am very happy with everything about it. I thin the price is nice as well and though it might be higher then other products the quality is worth it. I would recommend this product/brand to all.

Very "greasy". Eventually, it penetrates the skin. The smell is weird. And the texture is hard. I'm not sure if I should mix it with something such as aloe vera to make it more creamy therefore easier to take and apply.

great quality, smells lovely. good container.

Love it! Stays soft enough to use when I need it. Great quality. No complaints

So I enjoy putting this on my face ten minutes before I shower. After washing it off I've noticed my tone has evened out, I break out less, my skin is so soft and luxurious, any wrinkles seem to disapear. I also found putting this on mosquito bites quite seriously reduces redness swelling and itching near instantly! I'm type O+ and so I'm a skeeter buffet. This also seems to deter the little suckers. I've put it in a smaller container and stored the rest in a cool dark area in its' original bag. I also have a small recycled jar that I travel with. It's safe for chapped lips as well. A quick warm up and it easily spreads into and onto skin. The scent is not offensive but not the most fragrant.
