Sacred Shea Skincare Organic Lavender Shea Body Butter, Lavender Beauty Butter, 8 oz.

I've been on a mission to find products that are more natural without unnecessary fragrance or chemicals, so I was looking forward to trying this. I gave it three stars because it delivers an all natural product, which is exactly what it advertises. However, it just wasn't for me for reasons explained below.First, the smell was not my cup of tea. It was really off-putting at first, but I did get used to the smell the more I used it. The smell seemed to fade after application, but I couldn't be sure if others were able to smell it too. Second, it was not as moisturizing as I expected. After using it daily for a week or two, I noticed the skin on my legs was actually getting really dry and cracky. I'm usually good with an average body moisturizer so this was surprising. You may need to double up with a different moisturizer if you use this product. Third, this product took effort to apply for full body coverage. I found that applying after a shower worked best as the heat helps to liquify the product and spread more easily. This did cause an emulsion film on the skin, but that eventually would go away. On the plus side, I have sensitive skin and it didn't cause any adverse reactions aside from not moisturizing as well as I expected.I think this is worth a try if you are looking for an all natural product. I stopped using it half way through because wasn't for me and didn't provide the moisture I needed. But it may work for you.

This is a large jar & great value for organic Shea butter. A tiny amount goes a long way, so this jar should last a very long time. It is hard and softens up as your skin warms it, and is refined & smooth- not Gritty like other Shea balms I’ve tried. Even though rose oil is the 2nd ingredient I could not smell any fragrance other than the Shea scent similar to coco butter. I gently heated equal amounts of this Shea butter with coconut oil and my own essential oil and stored it in small jars. Good for all seasons, it’s relieved the discomfort & pain of dryness for hands, lips and nose.I also have their organic lip balm in stick form & love it.

The media could not be loaded.  This stuff is amazing!!! I usually make my own butter but ran out on this trip. The water in LA made my skin itchy, dry, a chey, and ashy. This cream instantly made me feel better. I would go so far as to call it medicinal. When my skin is irritated as it was I can't use anything with fragrance, even essential oils. This was very soohing. It is a nice thick cream as per video. If you're not used to shea butter then fyi you will need to heat the cream by rubbing it between your hands before applying.The package is a quality glass jar with plastic lid, my favourite, and I'll definitely re-use it. Best to do so straight out of the shower as it absorbs best then. It smells of shea butter because it's unscented. If you're used to the smell then it won't phase you but it is a particular scent.My definite go to if I run out again!!!!

Others have commented on this, and it's not a capital offense; however, I'm wondering if the marketing needs to be tweaked a bit to state that Rosemary extract is used as a natural preservative, and therefore it does have a scent. Not sure you can truly state that it's unscented. Personally speaking, since I don't mind the smell of rosemary (it's slightly medicinal) am therefore not bothered by the scent, but can it truly be called "unscented"? Probably not.But, what I can state, is that this a heavenly moisturizer, and looks like it will be fabulous for dry winter skin. I've never purchased this brand before, and will likely be back for more. I suspect it will help my skin not fall apart as it normally does during winter.

I've just ordered my 3rd jar of the stuff. I actually didn't love the first bottle because I couldn't smell the rose and the shea scent was too strong. The smell wasn't bad, just not pleasant, as I had hoped it would be. Nonetheless I finished the jar and ordered a replacement because it worked wonders and was a good price point. Well the second jar was perfect. I couldn't detect the shea scent at all and the rose was present without being too strong. I'm hoping that this third jar and the subsequent ones that I'm sure I'll order are as good as the second. But if not, I'll accept the variance as part of purchasing chemically free scented product.

Love this Shea Butter! I think a lot of people do not understand what RAW means (mostly under the review section for this same product but with Rose added) — Yes, you need to scoop it out and rub it into your hands to warm it up so you can smooth it into your skin. No, it’s not free of a scent. There’s no added scent but you can smell the raw Shea butter. Wasn’t sure I’d love the smell at first but now I do. Yes, it’s greasy. But after about 15-20 mins it’s absorbed into the skin and no longer greasy. Give it time to do it’s job. And yes, it’s incredibly moisturizing!! It makes my skin more soft than any body butter/lotion/cream I’ve ever tried. The softness lasts for days! Who doesn’t love the softest ta-ta’s ever!!!!!! It also keeps my tattoos looking brand new!! This lasts a long time, and have had it for awhile with no rancid or potency issues. If you’re expecting easy lotion full of chemicals and alcohol additives that disappears into your skin quickly, this isn’t it. Going raw/natural takes an adjustment and some new knowledge... dive in!

You should know that it is not liquid or creamy but rather oily, and it is normal because of the ingredients it has. If you want something to use all over your body, that may not be very easy to spread. I love it because it is exactly what I was looking for to use on my feet and hands. I love the soft scent of lavender and a very soft smell of shea butter! It works perfect for hands, feet, elbows and knees. I will surely buy again.

the item seems to have kept too long and hardened that it cannot be applied easily on the skin. will not re-visit this item.
