I am a cook and I'm constantly washing my hands as well as dishes. I needed something to moisturize and soothe that was all natural, since I can get eczema with some hand lotions. I had used pure Shea butter in the past and I knew that it worked well, so I looked for one that was fair trade. This one fits the bill. My dry, cracked hands were healed within 48 hours. It is also good for my lips. To the person who said the burnt smell was overwhelming, you are ignorant about how shea butter is processed. Pure Shea butter comes from the nuts of a tree, which are roasted over a wood fire during processing, and that's where the smoky smell comes from! This is a natural, artisanal, hand-made product. Watch a video and educate yourself. If you don't like the smell, buy some whipped Shea butter that has a scent like lavender or something.
I've been using Alaffia shea butter for 6 years and have always loved it for my dry hands, locking in my skincare routine, and healing super dry skin in the winter. But this is different than the last jar I bought. I'm not sure if it's how they process the shea butter or what but this is extremely grainy. I read the return policy and I'd have to spend about as much as I paid for this jar just to return it. Bummed that the quality has gone down and will be looking for a different brand going forward.
We're sorry to hear this jar is not what you expected. We feel it's important to share our shea butter is made using traditional processing methods which can produce a variation in odor, color, and texture depending on the climate and season of harvest. Please keep an eye on your email as we will be reaching out directly to talk more with you!

I LOVE THIS!!! I will try to never be without it for the future. I use it on itchy spots, as a moisturizer, on my face, on dry skin. I tell everyone about it.

I have purchased this product many times from Bed Bath and Beyond. In the past rated it 5 stars. When I recently ordered it, the top was not sealed, and it looked like someone put their fingernail in it. This is not sanitary and gross. So, returned it and reordered it. Problems happen. Second order also was not a sealed container. Product looked clumped and grainy at the top. In the past, it was smooth and not grainy. Returned this order also. Gave up. Will look for it somewhere else or choose another product. Previously, this was my favorite brand thru Bed Bath and Beyond. Disappointed that the quality and customer care has gone down. It is no longer carried in the store. Had to order on-line. Felt I got 2 containers that were returned items.
Love it! Skin was damaged, but now it's soft and free!

I've had issues the past couple of years with the shea butter. I love the regular shea butter because it lasts a while and is very moisturizing. I don't get the same affect from even the shea butter lotion in the pump container. But this has been grainy and literally rock solid. I would have to stab a butter knife in it to get it out. I believe it happens when the shea butter has heated up and liquified and them solidifies again because it used to happen when I'd get this exact stuffed shipped overseas in the summer. Once it cooled down and things weren't liquifying, it would stop happening. My last few shipments have been ones that have liquified, I guess because they've been unusable. The whipped shea butter just doesn't last long enough to be economical to buy just that, but even then, when that liquifies and solidifies again, you have this container that just has about a 1/3 of weirdly textured shea butter in it. Please fix the shipping and storage! I love this company and the product, but I can't be buying tubs on shea butter that I can't use because it's way too hard.

Excellent moisturizer. My skin is crazy-sensitive but this works wonders.

I like this shea butter after bath. No chemicals and natural. Hard when applying, but then melts.
I love my Alaffia unscented shea butter! I feel it is high quality. Some reviewers dislike the "smoke" scent that is naturally present from roasting the shea nuts during processing. I notice the scent when I open the jar, but it isn't unpleasant. I also haven't noticed it once I've applied it. It smooths well and finishes nicely. It leaves my skin feeling moisturized and smooth, and never greasy. I only wish that Alaffia included a spatula to get it out of the jar (thank goodness I still had one from my previous brand). I dislike having to use my fingernail to scrape out the small amount I need.

Entering into my mid 40s, I found that my horomones and body are changing. I recently began experiencing vaginal dryness and intense buring from the friction. The unrefined shea butter has really helped. No more chafing from being Lubricated and healing the raw skin.
