Lovely Shea Butter
It’s wonderful! Such a reasonable price for 100% Shea Butter.
United StatesGreat creme replacement
Great product! It keeps my skin moisturized and no slimy feeling.
United StatesWONDERFUL!!
LOVE this Shea butter!! Goes on nice and smooth. Love knowing it's UNREFINED!!! It has the vitamins etc. that actually helps heal the skin. I needed a good moisturizer. My first Shea from a Walgreens was (me being Shea inexperienced) was REFINED unknown to me at the time. Ordered this and am super happy. As a person with psoriasis for over 54 years i know what a good moisturizer is!! NOBODY would be disappointed in my eyes. THANK YOU!!! So happy with this(delivery was fast too) i ordered some crackers and jerky!! Looking forward to trying them.
United StatesI almost gave 4 stars because of its really hard consistency but this is my first time buying unrefined Shea butter so that may be normal. Other than that, it’s Ah-mazing! So perfect for locking in moisture after a hot shower especially in the winter. Smells good and works great! My skin feels incredible!
