- "Thanks for your excellent shea butter. I
was very anxious to get it and start working with it for my skincare
product. I think the quality and consistency is superb. I am looking
forward to placing my next order." - "I bought your unrefined shea butter from
one of your UK distributors. It is excellent. God bless you and
may your business flourish to 10 fold." - "The shea butter and black soap are excellent!
I don't have to look any further. I will only get my shea butter
and black soap from this site." I loved the excellent service and the quality of
the shea butter. I have recommended you to all my friends interested
in purchasing shea butter. - "Rec'd the African black soap and mixed it with
other natural shampoos and LOVE IT!! A real great clean feeling
and spells natural. Have to use a conditioner though afterwards.
It is the greatest." - "What a great company and products! Just received
the shea butter I ordered and it is fantastic-- especially the integrity
and ethics behind it. Thanks!" - "I just wanted to let you know how much I
love your products! I purchased your shea butter, coconut oil, cocoa
butter and black soap. They are ALL so amazing! The shea is hands-down
the best I have ever used. I am so proud that the
ingredients in my products come from you. It makes my heart fill
with joy to know that the wonderful, hard-working members of your
group are receiving a fair and living wage (the way it should be!).
I am grateful that when I get to do what I love, I am also supporting
such a responsible and ethical organization. Thank you for helping
me make beautiful products I can feel good about. " - This my first time ordering from Agbanga Karite
and ordering in bulk. I LOVE African Black Soap; I use it everyday.
Their African Black Soap is exactly what I needed and expected (real).
Also, it was at a great price. At first, I was worried that my order
would not arrive before my nickel-sized amount of Black Soap ran
out. What a surprise, I was impressed!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH for the
availability, the prompt delivery process, well packaging, and realness!!!" - Shea butter and virgin coconut oil are exceptional.
I have tried other shea butters and coconut oil and yours are the
best. Keep up the good job. - I can not express my gratitude for such product.
I received my Shea Butter and Black soap and I am very satisfied
with my products. I am so happy to give back to the people who work
to produce this for us. I will always support Agbanga Karite as
long as it continues to support the producers in Africa and promote
fair trade. Thank you. - Love your black soap and shea butter. Excellent
price and quality!!!!. Will order from you again and again. - I love your shea butter. I have tried shea from
two other companies, and yours is the best by far. Great stuff! -Thank you so much for my shea butter. I received
it quick and I simply love it. - Company policy - Excellent...Customer/Service Excellent...I
have just started using the black soap which I ordered, it came
very well packaged. I will certainly order from Agbanga Karite again. -... i just wanted to thank you for you surburb quality
of shea butter i get nothing but praise for the cream that i am
making with your product. i will be back for more very soon. thanks
- I want To Thank You. I received couple months ago
15 pound of Soap and Shea Butter and can not stop to use it. The
soap is so beautiful and the smell is delicious and natural. Now,
I use only this Soap and Shea Butter for my children and newborn
baby, I think it is more safe then drugstore product. My skin change
a lot and my husband use this soap for shaving. I trough out all
synthetic creams and shampoo and still can not realize how I could
use this stuff before in my skin and with my children. All our family
have very sensitive skin and your product really help us. Everything
that You write about "Your" Shea and Soap it is true.
Just Thank You and Thank You again.I have such a good feeling that
part of my many go back to Africa. You doing good job in this corrupted
world, but you will get your reward, because you are doing right
things.Thank You from my family. -I am obsessed with this website!!! I check it almost
everyday to see if anything new pops up or if there are any sales!
I just love looking and reading about the products!! They are fab-u-lous!...I
really liked the unrefined shea. It's not grainy like the ones I've
tried before. The descriptions on the website are fairly accurate,
too! The palm kernel oil really does have a caramel scent. And the
cocoa butter has a nice fresh scent of natural chocolate. I have
to say the 30 lbs. of black soap I bought seemed to be of better
quality than the sample that I purchased. So, I'm very pleased with
that. My personal experience with black soap has been great! I have
sensitive/dry skin with occasional breakouts. I was looking for
a product that would moisturize but get rid of my occasional pimples.
I tried using Clinique, and after a couple weeks I started breaking
out more. I kept using it for another two weeks and it got worse.
I even tried spot treatments from Clearasil and Oxyclean, but only
to find my skin inflammed, red, and "burned." So, I stopped
my current regime and I bought black soap after running into this
website. It was wonderful. After one week of use, I saw dramatic
results. And after about 3-4 weeks, my face was clear of all blemishes
and my scars were fading. The soap was a bit drying for my sensitive
dry skin, but I used the unrefined shea butter after washing and
it solved the dryness. I'm sure if you have an oily complexion,
this will be perfect for you. I am also very happy with the customer
service. The representative that I had spoken with over the phone
is knowledgeable, courteous, professional, and personable. Shipping
took only a few days and you can track it, which is great because
that lets me know exactly when it'll arrive. I hope this company
will stay around forever and that it will keep its integrity of
products, service, price, and purpose. I also hope that there will
be more discounts and sales as I anticipate that I will be purchasing
more products. And I hope to see new products on your website. Thank
you!!! -I am joyous for ever finding your site. As there
are many sites claiming to be selling the original stuff. However,
I am so pleased with my order of Shea Butter and Virgin Cocunut
Oil, it is all I use in my everyday regimen. I love the pictures
of the children with the books and uniforms. I am glad to know that
my proceeds go to a worthy cause. Keep Your Head Up my African Sisters!! -First I'd like to say a bit about the customer service
here at Agbanga ~ dead on perfect! I've been around the shea butter
block a time or ten and I have to say I've never been disappointed
in ordering from your company. I get what I order within days, not
weeks or months, like some of the other shea companies. Second,
the shea butter ~ ahhh! Absolutely the most beautiful shea butter
I've used. Smooth, creamy and delectible! Not a bit of graininess
or any kind of off smell ~ the scent is nutty and fresh, as it should
be. In fact, our best selling butter is the plain unscented, and
that's saying something about the quality of your shea. You have
my complete loyalty and devotion ~ and that's saying a lot, too. -i am so happy that i came across Fair Trade and
their products. as soon as i got my shea butter and black soap,
i called them the same night to thanked them. they got a happy customer
on their hands. i am a college student so money doesn't come easily
to me meaning i don't have any money to waste on horrible products.
i'm happy to say that my money was well spent. i have to admit the
scent caught me off guard, but it doesn't linger. it goes away after
a few hours and it doesn't leave me with a greasy feeling not even
on my face that tends to get oily. i can't keep this secret to myself.
i have to let my friends and family know about Fair Trade and their
products. again Thank you. -Your black soap is the best I've used. There's no
comparison to others. Your Kpangnan (Golden Shea B.) is wonderful.
So glad you offer such a superior product. I use your shea butter
on my face and my skin is smooth and never greasy. Please continue
offering such superiors products. And, your customer service is
probably the best I've encountered. Keep up the good work! -"I just received my order of 50 lbs of shea
butter. It is the best. The smell is sweet and I''ll be ordering
more soon. Thanks much." -"The batch of shea butter I bought recently
to add to salve was the best I've seen yet--far superior to the
hard bleached stuff I've been able to find on the shelves. I've
used it on its own as well as in salve and been extremely happy
with the results. I'll be ordering more soon, and trying other products
as well." -"I am the very proud owner of Reele-Izz Skin
Care. Our entire skin care line is made with the purest, freshest
and most exotic raw ingredients available...which includes your
Superior Shea Butter. I am very happy to have finally found a reliable
and responsible supplier of what I believe to be the best Therapeutic
Shea Butter available. Thanks!!!" -"Best black soap coming or going...LOVE IT!!!!" -"I am extremely pleased that I found the Agbanga
Karite Website. The African Black Soap and Shea Butter that I purchased
are the best I have ever used. The Website content, layout, and
design leave nothing to be desired; a superb job was done in making
information on Agbanga Karite and its products available to the
public. Finally, I received excellent customer service when phoning
the 1-866 number to make a correction in my order, and my order
arrived expediently. Thank you so much for being." -"After just getting off the phone with another
supplier who has NOT sent my order after 3 months, I find your fast
service and excellent products heaven sent. THANK YOU!!!" -"phenomenal. absolutely phenomenal. i ordered
the unrefined shea butter and black soap. my skin is so sensitive
that i cannot even use lightening products that contain hydroquinone
or kojic acids in the gentlest formulations. otherwise, my dark
spots actually get darker as my skin reacts. but with the shea butter,
which i lather and massage in religiously every night for one week
so far, has made my skin brighter, more resilient and most of my
spots have faded. i can almost say that for the first time in 12
years (since i was 14), i can almost go outside without powder or
make up on because of the even toned skin i now have. i think in
another week or so, i will be able to definitely step outside without
make up. thank you so much for your gentle products and your pure,
ethically and environmentally sound ingredients. there is a great
article at www.naturactiva.net/articles/african_wonder.doc which
i suggest everyone to read...it has a few clinical trials on shea
butter. very interesting and good to know how this stuff works,
why it works etc. once again, i am not only impressed with your
products, but i am impressed with the fact that you work by fair
trade regulations, using traditional methods of production with
much going back to the original communities of producers. keep up
this kind of compassionate production...it can only be a win-win
situation." - "I just wanted to let you know how much I
LOVE the shea butter we recently purchased from you. It is amazing
stuff. I have been using it in all my soaps and shea butters. I
recently tried the virgin palm oil sample and along with the shea
and the soap turned out fantastic. I had to get used to the smokey
smell of the shea at first, now I simply use essential oils for
scenting my shea butter creams and lotions and no more smokey smell!
Thanks again and we will be placing another order in the near future." -"I've been jumping here setting up my new factory
and haven't had a chance to write and tell you how much I'm enjoying
the 165lbs of Shea I got from you in March. The quality is superior
to any I've used and it formulates beautifully. Customers are loving
it straight or in cremes and lotions. I'm a very satisfied customer."
-"Thank you so much for your excellent products.
I am thrilled to find coconut oil, palm and shea that are processed
the way you do. The importance of using non plantation and organic
production methods cannot be understated. The plus is the excellent
quality of the products. I feel grateful everyday that when I do
my work I am helping to support a business that gives so much to
its community and sets itself to be a mentor for the world at large.
Would that we all supported our own communities at this level. I
look forward to a long relationship with Agbanga Karite. Thank you
for helping me bring a better product to my community." -"I made an order for Shea butter and black
soap about a month ago. Your professionalism and customer service
was great! You promptly returned my calls and answered all my questions.
My package arrived in a timely fashion and on the stated day. I
am very pleased with your products and I feel fortunate to have
found Agbanga Karite. Our customers love the Shea butter and the
black soap. Keep up the good work! :-)" -"I recently purchased 50 #'s your unrefined
shea butter and must say it's the nicest shea I've ever received.
It's creamy texture & natural light scent will be incorporated
into many of my all natural products. You will definitely be receiving
more orders from me! It's been a pleasure doing business with you!" -"It's a pleasure doing business with you. I
am very particular as to the quality of my oils--shea butter, unrefined
palm oil, etc. I seek out those people who really care about this
planet, and a maintain high ethical standard as I do. I am pleased
with your responsiveness and your high quality. If we all contribute,
even a little by what we do, perhaps we could shift the dynamics
in a positive direction. Thank you," -"I just love your Shea Butter! Its the freshest
I have ever used and love the nutty smell of it. I have upped it
in my soaps and find them to be so much creamier..." -"I was a bit taken aback at the "naturalness"
of the shea butter and it's color. However, after feeling it and
rubbing it on my skin, it's fantastic!! Creamy smooth and butter
like! I cannot wait to use it in my products." -"I love the Shea Butter it does great in my
CP soap and other bath products. It is very good & creamy. I
got 50lbs it was easy to break down into small containers. I will
certainly purchase more in the future." -"I recently purchased your unrefined shea butter.
It is great! Very creamy, nice color. It feels great on my skin
all by itself. I would buy from your company again. Sincerely," -"Ok, now I can give a fair assessment of the
shea butter ; ) And, it passes with A+ for extra excellence. The
shea is soft, and really melts in to the skin... it sinks right
in after a few minutes, without leaving a greasey feeling at all
; ) I use it straight up every evening before bed time. Love the
light nutty scent. No doubt about it. The shea is quality shea,
and very fresh. Products??? Ok, used the shea in regular CP soap,
in HP soap, and in a thick emulsified body butter, as well as Whipped
Shea ala Anna. Worked great in all products. Again, this shea is
not as greasy as some sheas appear to be. I love it!!!!! The whipped
shea and body butter are absolutely fantastic. No need for IPM or
nutrasorb. I want this shea to work its magic. So far customers
using both the body butter and the whipped shea, have paid high
regards: ) The Black African soap has been a favored staple of mine
for a while. Many times the soap can be somewhat caustic. Not so
in regard to the ABS you have. Very nice straight up, my eczema
does not flare up. I also have the Virgin Palm Oil. This is wonderful,
not only for the benefits, but also as a natural colorant. I used
VPO in Cream soap in the past and just love the golden rich buttery
yellow I can achieve with only a 1/4 tsp. I am very very pleased,
and will definitely order more soon." -"Just a week after whipping some of this up
and sending some plain my Dads cracked hands and feet from his chemo
are better! This is truly amazing and makes me feel so good! I received
my shea and it is to die for. Nice and creamy and not too dark or
smoky smelling. This is really good stuff!" -"...the shea butter is to die for...I have
added it in my melt & pour, lip balm, soap and body butter and
the creaminess is wonderful. Thanks" -"Thank you. Exact English cannot be done. Please
allow for my English. I am making djembe drum. If this karité
is applied to a body, wooden textures will increase. The air dries
very much in winter of Japan, causing severe conditions for a drummer.
However, the hand which got dry is moistened with nature when this
karité was applied to the hand. A high quality product --
good !!" -"I really enjoy using your shea butter because
it is a pure product free from chemical contamination, unlike the
bleached variety on offer here in the UK. I'm also very impressed
with your ethics & your commitment to the producers in Togo.
We particularly chose your shea butter over other suppliers because
your policies & fair-trade ethics mirror our own. Similarly,
our customers have been pleased to source such a product in the
UK. Its very easy to work with & the my products are wonderfully
rich & creamy. Thank you!" -"I really love your products and your outstanding
attitude. I also appreciate the philosphy of your organization.
It must be a great feeling to work for Agbanga Karite. I would love
to work for a company like this. Thank you." We truly appreciate your comments. Your feedback helps us improve our service and products. Please call us toll free at 1-800-664-8005 (Canada and USA). |
