Questions

Is it greasy?
For a minute or two. It's an oil-and-butter balm, not a water-based lotion, so it sits on the skin before it soaks in. Use less if it feels heavy.
How long does a tin last?
With daily use on hands and elbows, around two months. Use it within 12 months of opening.
Does it melt in shipping?
In summer it can soften in transit. Pop it in the fridge for 20 minutes and stir; the texture comes back.
Is the Unscented one really unscented?
Nothing is added. Shea and cocoa butter have a faint smell of their own.
