let me just say brazilian shea butter messed up my skin. I was breaking up like a mofo, men i had to quit that shit. I guess if u have dry skin or something it would do wonders for u , someone like me i have moderate to oily skin ...it was a big NO NO

mayne ....shea butter is the joint
i mix it with a strong oil base parfum and it takes care of the smell
many uses:
1)mix melted shea butter into my favorite shower gel....great
2)mix melted shea butter with cholesterol conditioner and pantene natural hair conditionor(this stuff makes a great deep conditiner for natural hair)
3) mix it with a lil kemi hair oil...it's a great mostrizer for natural hair.(better than dax...it doesnt have petroleoum).
4) mix a lil into my facial scrubs and mud masks...tis wonderful....
5) i use pure shea butter as a daily creme...it gives me smooth skin.
6) I pack it into a roob

container...great lip balm.....
.....man i am an addict...
i refuse to use it on my face tho',.,,,,it's too thick and it will prolly make me break out.....
