Shea Butter?

[smilingface]

I love using black soap and shea butter. I have never used shea butter on my face though. I am afraid it would be too heavy. I get my black soap and shea butter from Nasabb.com.

I sell my Shea Butter Creme to breast cancer patients during their treatments. It is moisture to the MAX!

Try putting it on your lips too!

Shea butter is heaven sent. I get mine from A real african store. And i know its the real stuff cus they sell it in A BIG ziploc bag for just 5 dollars, its has the smokey smell, it has just been expressed and shipped over from Africa, And i have had it for 3 months now, And it is still there.!!! i cant stress how good this is. My scars are fading, my acne has reduced, And when i put it on at night in the morning, my face looks much better. I LOVE SHEA BUTTER

:icon_smil Hi! I know Lush products (you can get them online) makes a black soap but I don't know if it is the same as the black soap they are talking about. I do know where to get pure shea butter that is completely pure and nothing added. You just melt it down a little to use it. It comes in a bag in little bits. It is from a company that supplies herbs and oils and other organic bulk products for people who make their own stuff. they also have their own line of products already made up and it is all pure with no additives. Here is the link:http://www.mountainroseherbs.com. They also sell essential oils and other stuff. I don't know if they service London area but you might give it a try. They are very nice and a good company to deal with. They have information on using different items also. I hope this helps. Nice to meet you!:icon_wink Chermarie

The closest I come to Shea butter is in my body wash! I'm so lazy when it comes to moisturizing. I just make sure my b/w has really high moisturizer content.

Thanx Truthseeker I'll check it out.

Pure unrefined shea butter is great for many things head to toe. I love it, but it is too heavy for my combo/oily facial skin. Here's the link of a great seller on eBay. They have a quality product that must be purchased by the pound.

Shea Butter is wonderful. I only use unrefined shea butter and use it in most all of my products. My most decadent soap is shea butter, cocoa butter and dead sea mud. OMG that is wonderful for your skin.

Use it on your lips for softness. Rub into scars to help fade. Use on a pregnant tummy to reduce the stretch marks. Use on your feet to soften them up. Just made some lotion bars with shea butter. It looks greasy but it isn't and sinks into your skin like nothing else

I got my raw shea butter here. Very affortable!!!

XXXSPAMXXX

Can someone help me! My link to this shea butter website has been edited I believe by Charmaine as Spam. It's a legitimate site that sells raw shea butter. What's the difference between this site and other posted on MuT??

Thanks!

Does this help fade dark scars?

 

[jessica9]

i used it on my skin when it was more acne-prone, and it REALLY made me break out! but as a body moisturizer, i love it. i love the organic shea butter as well as l'occitane's products with shea butter. it's great stuff! :icon_love

 

[LipglossQueen]

Yep that's one of it's properties, it's best to get the unrefined stuff which is purest.

Thank you Charmaine for your quick response!!! I really appreciate it....
