Excellent quality product however the packaging isn't ideal for hot Durban summers or travel.
04/09/2023, By Julie
This is a rich, buttery shea butter. It does leave a little oiliness, but not excessive. It is deeply nourishing. I would recommend it. As all Soil products, it is high quality and good value for money.
15/08/2022, By Gauri
Have used this product for years. Suits my sensitive skin.
19/12/2021, By Cindy
The smell is strange. I am not a fan of the bold smell. The texture is okay and the product absorbs well into the skin. It didn't cause my mom's sensitive ecema to flare up. Although everyone's skin is different and yours might react differently.
16/09/2021, By Kgomotso
The best buy for me. It helped me a lot with my sun burnt skin. Its rich and keeps my skin super soft. Will definitely keep buyung it.
12/07/2021, By Julia
Bought this product many times. Great moisturiser!
15/04/2021, By Elizabeth
It worked really well in baby bum wash for us. I have bought many of these tubs.
28/02/2021, By Faaria
My go to Shea butter - not only organic and unrefined, but at a great price too!
29/11/2020, By Gwen
Moisturizing and pure , I’ve been a fan for over a year now. Applies easily without ‘grainy’ bits sometimes found in Shea butters
16/10/2020, By FRANCIS
good
12/10/2020, By Jacqueline
Use it on excema, great for rubbing into cuticles and
a small amount is a super heat protectant when using
hot hair tools.
27/08/2020, By Healthy Bean
Love this shea butter and the smell is not quite as harsh as other organic butters.
20/08/2020, By Lauren
Smells amazing
31/07/2020, By Robyn

04/07/2020, By Busi

Great product, good value!
15/06/2020, By EssentialYoli
Super impressed with this one! made a body butter for my sons eczema prone skin and hes skin loooooves it!
11/06/2020, By Tracy
This product is thick like a body butter but contains particles in it like a scrub. Disappointed.
02/06/2020, By Tshegofatso
Great product
24/05/2020, By First born
Nice to leave for few hours then wash off
30/04/2020, By Claudia
This works great on your face, feet, body, hair and hands. It is a great moisturizer.
12/12/2019, By Maureen
Heavy duty butter that I use at bedtime on my overworked hands. Use sparingly :).
01/12/2019, By Celina
My feet love love love this cream and would recommend for dry cracked heels.
03/08/2019, By Ingrid
Will definitely recommend this to anyone
17/07/2019, By Jaxs
I bought this for my feet as nothing else was working for my dry heels. A bit too heavy for the body but perfect for my feet and hair
05/07/2019, By Tina
If there's one product I love in the bundle I bought it is this one! It is my first time making lip balms and creams. I made cannabis infused products with this and had no issue. It does not smell. Love the packaging as it can be reused for creams and other DIY's.
13/03/2019, By Chanel
Excellent product. Long-lasting and moisturizes well. I especially love that it does not leave skin feeling oily. Would recommend.
10/03/2019, By Kirsten
Nourishing and rich. Bought this when I thought my daughter had excema (turned out it was something else), it relieved her dry skin and stopped inflammation. Will definitely keep using during dry conditions.
26/11/2018, By Lee
I use this in winter as a face "cream", it absorbs well and leaves your skim smooth and silky.
11/11/2018, By Robyn
Lovely organic product, good quality. Perfect for dry skin, especially with no fragrance.
01/11/2018, By Mile
I personally have a dry skin, so I decided to try this butter, it is doing wonders to my skin. I don't regret buying it
11/10/2018, By Stephanie
Excellent moisturizer - It takes a while to sink into the skin, but is especially great for leave-on/ overnight treatment and during pregnancy to prevent stretch marks.
11/10/2018, By ragani
Received it has a sample and thereafter purchased the full size. Very moisturizing and smells amazing
23/08/2018, By nthati
My first shea butter and well lucky me I got the real thing. Love everything about it. Using it on my face and body. To think I have combination skin I feared it would leave me greasy and shiny but nope. ITS ALL GOOD!!!!
09/07/2018, By Simone
I first tried this Shea butter when I received a free sample with one of my orders. I immediately ordered the full size because the butter is wonderful. Just a small amount leaves my skin feeling soft and glowing. And there is no oily residue.
06/06/2018, By Kylie
Got this as a tester and I love it! It’s so soft and moisturizing. I have been battling with rosacea on my face due to exam stress and I apply a bit of this butter on the dry spots every night. Definitely helps with inflammation
29/05/2018, By Zaan
I received a sample of this product and I love it. I am not a oil lover so at first when I applied it to my hand I was freaked out by the oily-ness, but after a few seconds it was absorbed. Lovely for winter time I have very dry hands in winter this product will be perfect for myself and my husband.
05/05/2018, By RED
My sister has very dry and sensitive skin and this product has done wonders for her . She has been using it for a while now and her skin looks amazing.
14/01/2018, By Monique
My favourite shea butter. And it somehow doesn't have an overpowering natural scent like some other brand i tried before. Will definitely get this again. I use it as a hand and face moisturizer.
31/12/2017, By Jane
So rich and nourishing
29/11/2017, By Guinevere
Great product, stays smooth consistency and lasts for ever!
26/09/2017, By Mowow
This product is not easily absorped into my skin and the texture is not the best. Smell is a bit funny, but not offensive.
Haven't really seen a big difference in my skin.
11/09/2017, By Meagan
I swim frequently and do a lot of sports, so my skin becomes really dry. I also have sensitive skin. This butter is the perfect protection against chaffing from sports wear, and it restores and seals in moisture after a swim (the chlorine and sea water dry out my skin). I have been using raw shea butter for about 4 years now and particularly love this brand.
23/06/2017, By Pamela
This is the best Shea butter I've used. It's smooth and smells lovely...none of those weird little balls in it. It's also thick enough to provide long-lasting moisture
21/06/2017, By Chantal
Great product! Very good moisturizer.
21/06/2017, By Chantal
It moisturisers very well, very happy with this product.
16/06/2017, By KS
Love this - truly simply great.
01/04/2017, By Leon
Ive used the product before and will use it again. However, some people complain about grainy texture, some people say it has a great texture. Ive experienced both. When its grainy, it is a bit rough. I believe the difference in texture is due to the fact that it is a natural, organic product with no added chemicals that can ensure constant, repeatable texture.
20/12/2016, By SG
This product is really moisturizing however i find the smell to be stale and the texture is a little too grainy.

Its fine to use in the evenings but it takes a while to soak in and i can sit on any furniture as the oil transfers.

I don think ill be purchasing this again.
21/11/2016, By Saskia
I initially didn think much of this butter until I tried it out.
I have a stress related dermatitis on my hands, which recently was very flared up. Just for fun I tried the shea butter on my skin and amazingly within a few hours it helped calm down my skin and take away the redness.
Im now also using it as daily face moisturizer.
Really great product with no additives, just shea butter. Love it!
10/10/2016, By Karla-Lilienne
I mix this with Jojoba oil for a bode lotion that leaves you feeling silky. It does take time to draw into your skin though...
24/09/2016, By Karin
The whole family loves this!
29/06/2016, By Christelle
This is a lovely product - requires some heating in your hands to get rid of the grainy texture, but does an excellent job at keeping skin supple and soft
18/03/2016, By Christine
Wonderful for post steambath/sauna
Absorbs quick
Visable effect
A little goes a long way
Very impressed although seemed expensive at first, by far cost effective, love this version of shea butter#128526;
12/02/2016, By Rouve
This packs a wallop in moisturising my skin, but I have to take the time to warm it between my hands for it to melt completely. It is great for treating split end too!
02/02/2016, By Genevieve
This is not an every day, hop out the shower, apply and go butter. You should have a softer/thinner texture cream for quick morning routines.

I use this before I get into bed or if Ive used my weekly exfoliating body scrub. The texture sticks true the definition of ody butters and softens once warmed between the hands. It needs to be lovingly massaged into the skin. The results are amazing and youll notice a difference!
09/01/2016, By Susanne
Not my favourite. The texture of this product is rather firm and when applying a bit grainy at first. It moisturises well but is not absorbed into my very dry skin for a long time. The smell I find rather unpleasant reminding me of sesame oil treatments in Ayurveda. All in all not too happy but this may only be my personal preference.
30/11/2015, By Terry
I bought this for my wife and although she thought it was okay, the texture was grainy and extremely hard to spread. The granules didn seem to melt which made it more uncomfortable to spread. Otherwise she said it moisturized well.
26/11/2015, By Gugulethu
Love love love this. I also love the granular texture.
Buy it!!!
14/11/2015, By Jaco
I use this on my head after shaving and it works great, my skin is really soft and theres no irritation. Its a bit grainy but rubbing your hands together for a few seconds makes it melt completely.
05/10/2015, By Lebo
This product is a great moisturizer for kinky/coily hair. Id recommend it to anyone growing an afro the healthy, chemical free way.
28/08/2015, By Viana
Moisturizes well and a softer/smoother than the othe shea butter brands Ive tried.
18/08/2015, By Tammy
I adore this product. I use it all over my Body, every day. It has a great texture and smell. I would highly recommend this, and it doesn aggravate my Eczema at all
05/07/2015, By Lauren
Ive suffered from dry body skin and excema, and have kept my legs covered for years. Have been using this Shea butter on dry spots and my skin is healed, smooth and silky such that I can wear dresses again. I also use it on my lips. This is one product I will not be without.
14/05/2015, By Mariam
Effective product. Only used it a few times so far but my skin looks much smoother and hydrated. Will definitely buy it again.
08/05/2015, By esther
I absolutely love this shea butter. i use it for my face, hair and body and it feels great.
28/02/2015, By Maria
What an amazing product! Ive been using it nightly on my pregnant belly, my skin feels baby soft, and I haven had a single itch or stretch mark! Absolutely hands-down the best moisturiser Ive ever used.
20/01/2015, By Hanri
I really love this shea butter. I have always used body butter on my skin but this is my first go at the organic stuff. It takes a bit more effort to apply (you have to heat the product in your hands before applying it) but I use way less body butter than before and my skin looks more radiant. As such, this is really good value for money. I suspect it will probably work out cheaper than the conventional body butter I used to use.
12/11/2014, By Siamisang
I cant imagine having to do without this product. I use it day (under sunscreen) and night. Leaves my skin incredibly soft, bright and clear. Incredible butter @ a reasonable price. LOVE IT!
21/08/2014, By BRIDGET
I love this Shea Butter - Been using it for over two years now. I use it for everything! Especially in the winter months. Its great as a hair mask which I leave on for a few hours and it shampoos out easily. Combine it with Avocado and honey for an extra hair mask treat! I use it on my feet every day for baby soft heels... Its a great hand and elbow moisturizer! Can do without it now!
09/07/2014, By Hlengiwe
Id been meaning to try a shea butter product and glad Im glad I chose this one. Its become a staple for my natural hair care Ive mixed it with my other essential oils to create butter for my hair and it works wonderfully. My hair is healthy and soft.
03/04/2014, By Sam
This is an amazing butter for hair face and body. After one use on my hair, I was really surprised at how soft and healthy it was. Even my mom noticed. For the face and body, it is deeply nourishing and leaves skin beautifully soft and supple. My firm favorite now.
06/03/2014, By Sam, Durban
Wow, how soon it arrived. Thank you so much for your gift, the himalayan salts. Needless to say, I began trying out all my stuff (I have been so excited, waiting in anticipation). I immediately tried the soil shea butter. Its a marvelous product so soft and moisturising.
12/01/2014, By kay
Whats great about Shea butter is it is a great natural moisturiser which doesn encourage my skin to burn when in the sun - like olive oil or coconut oil does. What annoys about Shea butter is it is quite thick and needs to be heated in the hands before being applied.
As far as Shea butters go this one is a very good quality.
23/10/2013, By Bronwin
5 star product! use on entire family skin and hair and the results are incredible. worth every penny.
10/08/2013, By Ilona
I never thaught, that I will find a Treatment like that. Even my husband is using it.
We use it now since one week and will by it definitley again.
17/11/2011, By Janice
I am in love with this butter!
It is easily absorbed and leaves the skin very soft and glowing.
I even used it on my 5 year old son’s chapped lips and it worked wonders after just one application!
12/09/2011, By Gugu Vala
I'm loving th Natraloe regenarating aloe gel and my Soil Kenyan sheabutter,too beautiful.
25/07/2011, By Michelle
What an awesome product! I have decided that this is the perfect gift for birthdays. It is easily absorbed and leaves my skin feeling much softer.
08/07/2011, By Kaye
Love this butter! Bought it for my baby and toddler who both have sensitive skin, but I keep stealing it from their rooms to use on myself.
04/04/2011, By Moliehi
I have been using the shea butter now for 2 weeks and I love it! I use it everywhere. Hair, skin, moisturize my lips ... you name it. I have struggled with harshly dry and brittle skin for a long time and have now decided to seek relief in natural products. I have also changed the cleaning products around our home to ensure that my hands are not exposed to the harsh ingredients in them. I have been very happy with the results. My skin is moisturised without being too oily and my nails have just sokaed it up and are looking healthier than I have ever seen.
