Pros:

Skin feels so smooth and soft and you feel it has a calming healing effect. I used on a really severe bruise on my waist line(walked into gate post spike) took away the pain and inflamation - no trace of injury 6days later.

Cons:

Only the fact that it's greasy - so adapt how you use it

I have been using for a month now - I love it. I am now confident because I know I am not putting harmful chemicals on my skin - I was horrified to find out what was in the over the counter facial skin care products I had been using (check out skin deep cosmetic safety database) so I searched the internet and found Organic Virgin Shea Butter. Yes it's greasy - but I put it on my face and legs at night, I no longer use soap on my face, the Shea Butter is fabulous instead. In the morning I splash my face with water and take a couple of finger tips of shea and cream it on to my face over eye lids, neck everywhere, add more and more water to cream it in and then rinse. It of course doesn't rinse off but you wipe it off on the towel which it doesn't harm or stain. you are left with a slight film of Shea butter on your skin which leaves skin feeling wonderfully moisturised and protected without a trace of greasiness then you can apply makeup, but a shame to cover up my soft glo

Pros:

I have had acne for years now, but a few months ago, it got really bad. I tried so many products and eventually gave up on them all. Now I'm using black soap, and shae butter mixed with vitamin e during the night time, and it really is helping!

Cons:

Greasy. Sort of hard in the begininning before application, but definitely worth it!

IT WORKS! Try it! Black soap as my soap now. Then shae butter as a moisturizer in the morning, and shae butter mixed with vitamin e in the night, and little tea trea cream afterwards on the trouble areas.

Pros:

Cost effective, alot of product for such a good price. No harsh "market" chemicals, no "acne cure" gimicks.All Natural product.

Cons:

A little greasy, smells a little weird, ( but, so does Benzo peroxide). right???

I got mine from a booth selling nothing but african products. And I saw a lot of women buying this. I saw the way it was shipped and sold, and I must tell you, he hand packed the shea butter like he was packing ice cream. I brought a small tub thinking, well why not, I got home, went on line to see uses for this, and It is used for several uses including acne, blemishes and scarring. I AM NOT saying this is a miracle cure yet... but I have used it for four days now, morning and night. I am tired of wasting money on so called "market acne" products that just either, "LIE" or "DRY'. It is really ridiculous how the FDA allows anyone or anybody to put something on the market and slap ance med on the label. Well this may be a little greasy, but my skin and hair are a lot softer for it. Yep, HAIR and scalp. I love it. I plan to buy some more. next weekend, I hope the same people have their booth open this weekend, I will buy a bigger tub.

Pros:

Softens skin, lightens scars, helps with blemishes and acne, evens skin tone and reduces wrinkles. It also has a very nutty natural smell and is very cost effective.

Cons:

a tad greasy... use only a little under make up.

I have been suffering with spots & blemishes all my life, especially after having my daughter. I am eating healthy but other then that I have tried almost every product on the market for my skin. I discovered shea butter and black african soap a few months back but have been hestitant to use it. I started about two weeks ago, broke out badly but now my skin is settling and my spots are drying up ever so quickly. I smear shea butter on my face as a moisturiser after my shower, before bed and on my days off I just load it on. In one week it is doing unbelievable things to my skin. I am sold, and the week of break outs was well worth it. I sometimes mix it with coconut and jojoba oil as well. I use it under my make up and it helps to settle the make up very nicely on my face.... only use very little though.

Pros:

I have sensitive skin, so I am prone to hives. The butter helps moisturize my extremely dry skin, and leaves the skin to a natural radiance. It fades scars, and smooths the skin's surface. It absorbs really well into the skin.

Cons:

If it is used excessively and in large amounts, it can clog the pores. A little goes a long way. Give it time, your skin may have an initial reaction to it, but that is not uncommon. You have to be consistent in whatever you use for your face.

This product is nature's answer to beautiful and healthy skin. If you want to more pampering, try using UNREFINED soft black soap as a cleanser. That helps the skin at a faster rate. Once you use this, thats all you'll ever want to use.

Pros:

Cheap, natural, organic, moisturises skin and takes away flakiness, heals scars

Cons:

Greasy on application, not much good if you want to apply makeup over the top - I apply and tissue off excess

Buy it. I have adult-onset acne not caused by hormones or oiliness and this has turned my skin around in the space of a week. Admittedly I have a lot of free time right now and am spending a lot of time rubbing large amounts of it on my skin frequently, but it's shifted all my spots, and is doing a fantastic job on my scars. It doesn't cause me to break out, it smells nutty in the same way cocoa butter does, it's a little difficult to apply until it's melted. I am using UNREFINED shea, bought cheaply off ebay, and considering the price and the fact I'm not slathering some weird chemical all over my skin it's doing a fantastic job. Not sure I'd recommend it for oily skin but I certainly think it's worth a try, you can use it as winter handcream or lip balm even if it doesn't fix your skin.

Pros:

Clears Skin, Fades Blemishes, Not sure if it works with acne or not but I would think it should help out.

Cons:

Greasy if used in excess.

Freaking Amazing. I don't have acne per say I get a bump every now and then but I do have blemishes from when I really used to have acne. Ever since I've been using Shea butter the results are really fantastic and I am interested to see the results it has on my body ;)

Pros:

Nothing else worked for me: moisturizes, lightens scars, makes my skin smoother and so soft! Does NOT make me break out even more like people would think of with its consistency. Less break outs, more smoothness!

Cons:

It's thick and makes me shiny so I put a thick layer on my face only at night EVERY night.

This stuff is AMAZING! I've been suffering from acne for 7 years now and I've tried every product and been ripped off by multiple dermatologists. Drying acne products that a lot of people try to use did not work for me and only irritated my skin more. I guess I'm sensitive to a lot of things. Shea butter saved me from going on accutane. I don't put ANY drying acne products on my face anymore and only shea butter at night when I go to sleep to wake up to more beautiful skin each morning. In the morning I wash my face, put some oil-free lotion on under my makeup and that's it. I use shea butter on my face every night. It's very cheap for a tub of this stuff and I feel like it's a miracle. I put it on my body as well to wake up with extra soft baby skin everywhere. You can usually find these products at an african-american store or sometimes people put out little stands selling these around markets or college campuses.

Pros:

I have been dealing with acne for 35 years. Shea butter have assist me in dealing with acne and oily skin. it has soften , even out my complexion and help my scars heal faster.

Cons:

it goes on a bit greasy therefore use a small amount.

It is a good product. I have mix a little of retin-a and shea butter together to use as a night cream. I use an exfoliating soap weekly to take off the dead skin follow by moisturizing with shea butter. Make sure you get 100% unrefined shea butter. I would google websites for raw shea butter.
