A member asked:
Can we use natural, unrefined shea butter (raw) as a moisturizer for our skin?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: As long as it works for you. Some people feel that asians may respond better to shea butter. The important thing is to apply it immediately after you get out of a bath.
