    Smells wonderful mixed with coconut oil! Great for eczema!

    I bought this to make diaper rash cream for my son. It has a wonderful nutty smell. I mixed it with coconut oil, beeswax, zinc, and a little kaolin clay. The cream smells amazing! I'm going to mix some up for a skin cream for his eczema as well. I melted the beeswax and coconut oil then added the shea butter as it was cooling. The cream came out smooth, not grainy.Will purchase again!Edit: I just had to add something. First of all, this butter does have a smell by itself that can be off putting, it's very nutty and very strong. Coconut oil smoothes out the scent nicely. It also does take a moment in the hands to soften, but I also have very cold hands.Second of all... I have been applying this butter (by itself) to my son's (6 month old) eczema for a couple days. I have tried all sorts of stuff one his skin: coconut oil, olive oil, avocado oil, vitamin e oil, Aveeno, Vaseline, Aquaphor, CeraVe (we have also tried probiotics, oatmeal and baking soda baths, really we've done it all short of dipping him in paraffin wax)... and have been losing my mind over it because nothing seemed to work. We started to use this and saw an instant improvement in the middle of a very bad flair. We had used some hydrocortisone the first day and decided not to do it the second (we normally have to use it for several days before his skin starts to improve, so much that we have had to use prescription strength before and have been to the doctor several times about it) because it wasn't dry anymore (still red though). Today we noticed that while the eczema is still spreading over his chest (as it does and is likely because he's teething), the redness even is going down. I am floored! All I can say is that this is AMAZING! He's had severe eczema since he was 2 months old - the kind that cracks and bleeds. His skin is finally recovering and without steroids!I'm pretty sure now that shea butter is magic!Update 12/30/17: I have now tried two different shea butters from Dropy and have noticed a difference (though subtle). I figured I'd note these differences.I have come to the conclusion that this shea butter may have been left in the sun for too long or subjected to heat (perhaps to pack it in the tub)... or perhaps it is just a little older of stock than others.Compared to the other I have tried this butter:- The scent is less sweet. I do not think it smells rancid by any means, but it is certainly more nutty and a little bitter.- It is a little more crumbly (which is why I think it may have been subjected to a little heat... it is smoothed out fine when whipped though- It is more solid / less creamy initially... however (perhaps it was subjected to more air, or as said before is perhaps from older stock)- It actuality melts better when worked in the hands (I'm not sure why)I hope this review is helpful.
