Key West USDA Organic Raw Shea Butter Product Review

By

I have been compensated in the form of a gift card/money/coupon and/or received the product/service at a reduced price or for free. All opinions expressed are mine and honest in nature.

 This was my first experience with raw shea butter. I wasn't really sure what I was getting myself into. I've used products containing shea butter, but never a container of raw shea butter.


But I was pretty excited to try the Key West USDA Organic Raw Shea Butter. If you are a follower of my blog,  then you know that I'm sensitive to smells. And if this didn't smell pleasant to me then it probably wasn't going any where near my skin. I opened the jar and took a whiff (this is probably why my son smells everything before he touches it ha) But it smelled ok. It really didn't have much of a smell which I liked. 

If you've never used Raw Shea butter before, let me enlighten you and tell you that isn't creamy like lotion. So don't expect it to be a lotion type consistency. But it wasn't difficult to use at all. I applied it directly to my skin and rubbed it around. My body temperature warmed it up, and it melted into my dry rough calloused feet. You could also choose to warm it up in your hands first and then apply it. Being a runner (Will Run For Ice Cream), my feet are in bad shape. And just after one application of the  Key West USDA Organic Raw Shea Butter, they felt softer. With Winter approaching, I know I will also use this on my knees, elbows and hands as they (in addition to my feet) are trouble spots for me. 

The Key West USDA Organic Raw Shea Butter is currently the only shea butter on Amazon that is certified $A organic. (meaning that others can state they are organic but may still contain chemicals). This shea butter is processed by hand resulting in the highest quality grade A shea butter. 

I'm overall pleased with the product. And for all of you DIYers out there, here is the YouTube channel for Key West Health and Beauty with great tutorials on how to use this raw shea butter to make other products. Since I'm not so much DIY, I'll be using it straight from the jar which works great for me. 


I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.

Rejection

By
You'd think as many times as I've been rejected in my life that rejection wouldn't hurt anymore. Really, I can't count the number of times that I've been rejected, or slighted, or been on the receiving end of cruel words. I'm almost 40 for pete's sake. Rejection shouldn't bring tears anymore, but it still does. It just seems like I've been faced with it a lot lately. It started with the Running and has seemed to carry over into other parts of my life. I have spent most of my life on the sidelines watching other people. That's what happened with the marathon.   Once again, I'm on the side as others do things that I want to do. I trained. I had to have an unexpected surgery. I got injured. I couldn't run. It happens. It isn't the end of  the world. But what many don't realize is that there are numerous times in my life that I am on the sidelines, watching, wishing I was the one 'out there' - not the one watching. . But

What Summer Taught Me

By
This Summer has been a big learning experience - for both Lil Man and myself. Who knew that an amusement park could be such a learning experience for both of us. I watched as my little boy, all on his own, climbed stairs among strangers, learned how to wait his turn, slide down a water slide, and do it over and over again. I watched as other kids shoved him out of their way, cut in front of him as he stood patiently 'waiting for his turn'. Groves of bigger kids kept cutting in front of him, and I held back and gave him time to respond. This for me was a learning experience. See, people have to have room or space to grow. So I learned how to let go, let out the leash a little, and give Lil Man some space. The first time the kids pushed him aside, he really didn't know what to do. After a few minutes of this, I did intervene. I told him to get in line. Take his turn, and when it was his turn he was to go. And the next time as other kids pushed past him, it only took a few

Adfilic Bluetooth Stereo Portable Wireless Speaker Review and Giveaway

By
I love music and streaming music through various apps on my iPhone. But with the case that I have on my phone, it sort of blocks the speakers a little. I can hear, but it can be a little muffled. So when I heard about the  Adfilic Bluetooth Stereo Portable Wireless Speaker  I jumped at the chance to try it. I was a little nervous since there really wasn't a lot of instructions on setup. I mean it had the usual pictures of this button does this etc, but there really wasn't a lot of documentation with it. So I was a little apprehensive at first.  But it didn't take me too long to realize that I didn't need a lot of instruction. It was pretty much straight forward. Charge it. After it was charged, turn it on. I went into my connections on my iPhone. It immediately found it, paired, and I was good to go.  I did get a little confused on which button was volume up (and down). But after a little trial and error with that, I've had absolutely zero iss
