Expensive as ever and not so conveniently housed, but this stuff is just what my hands needed! After using this, along w/ the 20% shea hand lotion, my hands are <em>noticeably</em> softer, and my...

<b>Overall:</b><br>I love this! Moisturizing, yet not slippery at all! MAC lipglass works best with this. Apply this as base then apply lipglass, you'll find lipglass spread so easily and evenly!...

Okay, it's not very cheap, but the large tin lasts a very, very long time. I put this on my elbows and other dry spots and also when grooming my eyebrows. I have tried other brands of 100% shea...

I hate the packaging. It reminds of Cargo's packaging which I find equally difficult to open. Although the shea butter is wonderful. It moisturizes and leaves every dry bit feeling wonderful. I...

Overrated and overly expensive. Pure shea butter is cheap if you buy from a organic items retailer like mountainroseherbs.com, a pound is only 9 dollars. I like L'Occitane products in general......

This really helps with dry lips...but is overpriced, and the container fell apart in my makeup bag. Also--no SPF!

I agree that this is heaven on parched, chapped lips, which is the primary way I use it. It's also a good all-purpose thing to have on hand - after using it on my lips or elsewhere, I sometimes run...

I just enjoy having this product at home. I use it on my lips and over my feet moisturizer. I feel like it holds my moisturizer in.

Hard to get the tin open. Also, this is refined with Hexane (thus the white color) so all of the healing properties of natural shea are extracted out, and then the product is waxy. Boo! Get your...

As a lipbalm -this is the ultimate best. It cured my dry, cracked, bleeding (ouch) lips in an instant and doesn't leave any waxy feeling. Feels absolutely natural to have on, this is the best...

I won't be without this. Yeah, it's not cheap, and the tin can be a pain to open (though I tend to like the style of l'Occitane's packaging in general). But it's good for some really important...

This is simply the best lip balm. The big tin of it is the best deal, but it can be very hard to spread. I like to carry the small tins around in my pocket, and the body heat makes it much easier...

This is a wonderful shea butter. It's so smooth instead of grainy like so many others. While this adds some moisture, I've found that it's best used as a barrier to keep moisture in. The last time...

I hate hate hate the smell. I can't stand it on my lips and it made them worse. I will use this up as a cuticle cream (I really need one right now) but I will not be rebuying.

I have tried both the 100% shea butter lip balm and the 10% one. I prefer the 10% balm. It's glides on smoother and hydrates wonderfully. It's a bit pricey at ten dollars but my lips have never...

I didn't buy this L'occitane Shea Butter. What I have done is tried it in the shop a couple of times and hated it every time. I'd really like to know how greasy lip balms are meant to be...
