What Our Customers SayDear Brittany,
I'm just sending you this email to let you know how well your Shea Butter for Perioral Dermatitis is working. I have had problems with perioral dermatitis for several years and finally I have found a product that makes it go away. When I first started using your shea butter I put it on several times a day, but after the rash disappeared, I have just been using it once a day - and it hasn't come back for over 2 months now.
Thank you so much for your great product.
Amelia W., New York, NY 1/11/2005 Dear Karite Gold
I have began using your lip balm with shea butter and it is excellent your service is excellent as well my wife and I will be ordering more products from your site as shea butter products are impossible to buy in Australia for some unknown resion very happy with product and service,
Thanks
Angelo M., Melbourne, Australia 1/5/2005 Hi Nicole,
I have used your product before and at that time I was fighting dry skin on the bottom of my feet and hands. Since that time I have discovered that I have psoarasis on the soles of my feet and the palms of my hands.
I have tried some medications and I need to keep my hands and feet moisturized, and have used the shea butter on them, It has helped a lot and also takes some of the pain away when moisturizing.
If you have any other suggestions, let me know,
Thanks
Elizabeth B., Warren, MI 1/4/2005 Hello,
You asked for a testimonial from your customers and I am willing to offer one up! After years of trying lip balms, chapsticks, vaseline, and other ointments and creams to clear up my dry, cracked lips I came across your site. I was very hesitant to pay for a chapstick (plus shipping) over the web, but decided to give it a try.
Much to my surprise, my order was handled professionally with emails and shipped in a timely manner. As for the product itself (Karite Gold Shea Butter Lip Balm- Natural Mint) I LOVE it!
It actually works. My lips have not been this smooth or soft in a long time. I love the mint taste too!
Thank you for developing a superior product.
PS. I had to take Accutane a year or so ago. It dries you out completely. I am so happy to have found your product.
Lynn V., Coatesville, PA 1/4/2005 Hi Nichole,
It has been about a month and a half since I began using Karite Gold's tube
of natural shea butter lip balm. My lips are far better than they used to
be. Before, my lips were severely dry and chapped. I would use other lip
products several times a day to relieve the discomfort. I would apply a
very thick coat too. They only made the problem worse. If I failed to
reapply before going to bed, my lips would crack and bleed all over in the
morning. The corners were the worst. I couldn'tmy mouth much to eat,
laugh, smile, or talk properly should the corners bleed again. As you can
imagine, it was terrible.
When I began using your product, I had to reapply it several times in the
beginning because my lips were in such bad shape. However, I soon began to
notice a gradual, overall improvement. I needed to use it less and less as
the days went by. Now, my lips are pretty much back to normal, and I use
your lip balm once a day applying only one very thin coat. Winter just
began here so I figure by spring my lips will be totally fine.
Thank you so much.
Nadia J., Oyster Bay, NY 12/21/2004 Hi Nicole,
I just thought I would let you know how wrapped I am with the Shea Butter. I have had perioral dermatitis for over two years now and I have tried many lotions and potions switching make-up and visiting a number of dermatologists. I was just about to go on a course of antibiotics (which I detest) when your Shea butter arrived and I thought I would hold off and try the butter out for a couple of weeks. After one week , I noticed a considerable change the bumps on my face were not as red and inflamed and also the bumps were getting smaller and less noticeable, even my daughters were commenting (Ages 5 & 9). Week Two, the bumps are getting smaller again and less also, it is so great to be able to wash and dry my face without it hurting or bleeding. I am now into my third week ant the dermatitis is still improving every day. Now I am hoping it will all clear up with the Shea butter, and I won't have to take the antibiotics which I am sure it will at this rate, and I will be a long-time customer and will be recommending you product to everyone.
Thanks again
Rosemary F., Melbourne, Australia 12/20/2004 I'm delighted to write back and let you know not only what I think of the product, but also the experience of "shopping" through your website. I found the website friendly and easy to use, the "personalized" follow-up e-mails a delightful change of pace from the typical electronic response, and the product arrival amazingly quick. Now that I've used the product for a few days, I can guarantee I'll be ordering from your site again. The entire experience has been a rare pleasure.
P.S. Another "flavor" I'd love to see sometime--Gingerbread or Pumpkin Pie!
Thanks!
Teresa T., Minden, NV 12/17/2004 Dear Nichole,
I've been using the Sandalwood and Lavender Shea Butter for a while, and I
am so in love with it. I am very, very happy you added olive oil. I know how
beneficial olive oil is to skin. The eczema on my right hand is much more
tolerable since I have been using your shea butter. My skin all over is
smooth, soft and moist, which is great for the winter months. The Sandalwood
and Lavender smells wonderful, too.
Do you take requests for scent mixes? I'd love to see a blend of Sandalwood,
Myrrh, Ylang Ylang, and Bergamot.
Joanna C., Washington, DC 12/16/2004 Just a note back to let you know we received our order very quickly. I gave one stick to each of my daughters who were used to petroleum based lip balms and we all agreed your product is just great. I have no more flakey or peeling lips! Thanks so much. I put you in my "favorites"!
Nan G., Agawam, MA 12/13/2004 Nichole:
Wow! This is great customer service. I am very impressed. Thanks so much for your prompt and friendly reply. I am loving my newly discovered flavors of Karite Gold! Proper lip care is a must here in Wisconsin!
Thanks again!
Dannell V., Milwaukee, WI 12/4/2004 Hello,
I have been using you natural shea butter and it is great. I am 57 years old and I was having proplems with my skin being dry etc. which is expected for my age. I look like I am 40 but my skin was very dry. I buy it in the bigger pots and am on my 5th pot. I also bought the black soap and I am pleased. At this rate my skin will make me look like a new born baby! Ha Ha.
Thank you for your product.
Beth W., Deerbrook, WI 12/3/2004 I received my Karite Gold lip products and have begun using them. So far, I’m thrilled that my lips are getting some relief from the very dry and cracking I usually have. I have a long way to go to get soft lips but with the Karite Gold I feel I have some instant relief. I bought four tubes so I can always have one at hand. My lips will never be far from a glide of Karite Gold. Thanks for what appears at this point to be a great product.
Patty B., Spring, TX 11/28/2004 I received my order on Saturday, however I was out of town and was unable to reply until now. Before I started using your product, I suffered with dry, chapped and splitting lips for months. Your product is the only thing that worked. I thought you would like to know.
Thanks
Josie, A., North Richland Hills, TX 11/9/2004 Thanks so much! Karite Gold shea butter and soap products help me tremendously in battling shaving bumps and ingrown hairs. As an African American male serving as a commissioned officer in the Armed Forces, I have to maintain a clean shaved image. That's hard to do if my face is beat up from shaving. But thanks to Karite Gold, I can manage the problem and it's basically the only thing that works on my skin. I've tried bump patrol, bump fighter, PFB Vanish, and a host of razors, blades, depilatories, etc. Just one inexpensive jar of Karite gold shea butter and some gold soap does the trick.
Thanks again for having my order shippped out so fast as well.
Sincerely,
Dwayne F., Vandenberg AFB, CA 11/2/2004 Hi Brittany,
I have done a lot of buying over the internet the past few years and I have never come across a company that is as PROMPT as yours.
Thanks for being a such a responsible organization. Word of mouth advertising is priceless and be sure I will point my constituents in your direction.
Keep up the good work.
John P., St Louis, MO 10/13/2004 HELLO, I HAVE ORDERED YOUR PRODUCTS SEVERAL TIMES NOW AND INTEND TO BE A CUSTOMER FOR LIFE. AFTER HAVING TRIED EVERYTHING JUST SHORT OF LASER SURGERY, YOUR BLACK SOAP AND SHEA BUTTER HAVE DRAMATICALLY HEALED MY ROSACEA AND I USE IT ON A DAILY BASIS.
I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHICH FORMULA WOULD BE MOST EFFECTIVE AT MINIMIZING THE APPEARANCE OF VARICOSE VEINS? PLEASE LET ME KNOW SO THAT I CAN ORDER THE APPROPRIATE ONE. THANKS SO MUCH FOR YOUR HELP AND YOUR AMAZING PRODUCTS.
SINCERELY,
VIVIAN V., Northridge, CA 10/7/2004 Dear Brittany:
I received the lip balm yesterday......I love it ! Thank you for handling my order in such an efficient way,
RoseAnn, T. San Diego, CA 9/29/2004 Dear Karite Gold,
I have been using your products for over 2 years and they work great. I am now a super fan of shea butter. I used to have very dry skin and occassionally had eczema, but since I started using your shea butter, my skin looks really good and I haven't had any eczema at all.
I'm a really happy customer.
Jane M., Madison, WI 9/18/2004 Hi Nichole,
I have been using the black soap on my face for a few weeks now. I can get a
very close shave even with a well-used disposable razor with that soap. I have
been washing especially on my nose which can get red on occasion. That seems
to be diminishing as well. I have recommending the product to friends and family.
I just order some pure shea butter from you as well.
The one thing I have noticed about several shea butter sites is that they all seem to
claim that their shea butter is better than somebody else's. It reminds me of the
Bush-Kerry race for president. I would not emphasize to people that refined
shea butter won't do anything for a person. I would emphasize what your product,
which is great, will do for somebody.
I do have a question, though. If shea butter comes out white and buttery in the
process why is the soap black?
Thanks again.
Daniel C., Seattle, WA 9/14/2004 The lip balm is excellent. I ordered my first tube a few weeks ago. I have tried so many balms for chapped lips - THIS WORKS!!!!!
Andrea E., Baltimore, MD 8/31/2004 Dear Nichole,
I purchased your product for Athlete's feet for my husband. He has used it now for about 1 ½ weeks. We can tell a major improvement in his feet. One foot would itch so bad and would aggravate him something horrible. His foot has cleared up and it doesn't itch like it used to. This product is amazing!!
Thank you,
Kim D., Lexington, KY 8/30/2004 Hello. I e-mailed a testimonial in regards to the lip balm I ordered. But there were two reasons why I ordered the cream. I have rosacea. We just went to Ocean City New Jersey and I failed to put sunscreen on my face. The only moisturizing product I had was getting soaked up on my face so fast it wasn't even working. So I used my Karite Gold lip balm on my nose and cheeks. Well, not only did it soothe my sunburn but it prevented it from pealing. And, my rosacea seems lighter. I am still using the lip balm on my face until my cream gets here. I'll send another testimonial after I use it for a while.
Thank you,
Lisa S., Shiremanstown, PA 8/23/2004 Hi. I cannot thank you enough for the wonderful lip balm I received. Having never used it before I was apprehensive about ordering 4 tubes to get a discount. But I did it and boy am I glad. I have one in my truck, one on my night stand, one in my office and I put my husband's initial on one for him too. I have had severe chapped lips for almost a year now. After waking up at 4 in the morning with a massively swollen bottom lip from being so chapped I decided to search the net for something to cure this. That's when I learned from your website how the regular petroleum based stick I was using could be causing more harm than good. I took a leap of faith (I'm used to doing that with God so I figured I'd give it a try with your company) and just like with God, your company came through for me too. My lips healed literally in 24 hours and with only a couple of applications a day it is staying away. I know I will use more in the winter so I plan on stocking up. Thank you so much for helping me. I will recommend this product to everyone with chapped or dry lips.
Thank you,
Lisa S., Shiremanstown, PA 8/17/2004 Hi, Nicole!
I have received my Karite Gold Shea Butter with Lavender and Myrrh and the Cherry Lip Balm. I decided to try it because of what I think is perioral dermatitis on my face. The Shea Butter feels so good (and after two days benefits are apparent) that I have decided I want to slather it from head to toe every day! The fragrance is overwhelming when I do that and my husband complains - ha! So I need to try either an unscented one or maybe one with just the Lavender oil.
Thanks,
Laurie S., Tullahoma, TN 8/7/2004 Dear Nichole
What can I say? I have been looking for a product like yours for months. I live in Australia and cannot find Shea Butter based products like yours anywhere here (so far).
I have extremely sensitive skin that breaks out in a rash when I use almost anything other than plant based products. I was so impressed to see that your ingredients are only plant based!
Admittedly, I have only been using the lip balms for a week or so (and sometimes it takes about that long to develop a real rash), but they feel good, and that's enough to convince me.
Aside from the lip balm and soaps, do you have any other skin care products available to Australian residents?
Thank you so much for helping me find such a wonderful product! I will be back again.
Regards
Ellen B., Dubbo, NSW, Australia 8/5/2004 Dear Nichole,
I'm totally satisfied with your customer care and most of all, the product your company provides … pure shea butter is the only way to go when managing corse beard hair (razor bumps, ingrown hairs, infection, etc). The shea butter is smooth and calming and most of all, I like the fact that it lasts for so long. This is the third or fourth time I've ordered from you guys and I appreciate the quality and timely order response.
Dwayne F., Vandenberg Air Force Base, CA 8/3/2004 I like your product a lot: my hands and feet felt softer after just one use. The scents (jasmine and lavender) are delicate and very pleasant. I will order again.
"Happy in Mill Creek"
Yolanta S., Mill Creek, WA 7/19/2004 Dear Karite Gold,
I love Your Shea Butter, I am especially in love with the Lavendar, Vanilla, Grapefruit mix. I have very sensitive/dry skin, but I have had wonderful results with your product. My skin is nice and soft and my facial blemishes are fading. I have also noticed that my nails/cuticles are healthier. I have also tried the black soap and have wonderful result with that as well.
Even my Husband has taken to your Bergamont with Patchouli variety, and never fails to remind me when the next order is soon needed.
Thank you.
Danielle Q., District Heights, MD 7/15/2004 My family loves your products! A model friend discovered your products while working in Italy. I commented on how beautiful her complexion was hooked on your products after that. For years I have been using Sisley Skin Care that I purchase at Neiman Marcus. I have saved so much money in the past six months. All I need is my Karite Gold. My face and neck is no longer dry. I have a second jar of Karite Gold that I use on my body and feet. My 23 yr. old son can now shave without any pain because of the black soap.
Thank you so very much,
Connie H., Dallas, Texas 7/14/2004 I just wanted to let you know I received my package yesterday and am very happy with it! I love that it's all natural and it really makes my lips nice and soft!
Thank you!!!
Marcy D., Fitchburg, WI 7/13/2004 Hello,
This is my 2nd order & I love the shea butter it is great after shaving the sensitive areas. I no longer have the razer burns afterwards. Also like how a little goes a long way.
Love it & will be back again
Kimberly M., Ft Worth, TX 6/21/2004 I got my order. I love the products. I have had them for only about a week. BUT I have a place on my finger that I have not been able to get well in over a year. It is now almost well.
However, I got the products for my husbands feet. They looked terrible!!!!!!!!!! We have been doing the foot bath and rubbing them each evening and their almost normal. He doesn't believe it and I am really pleased.
Thanks
Jo Ann S., Tuscumbia, AL 6/16/2004 Hi Nicole,
I received my Karite gold lip balm today. I have been using it for about 6 hours and already my lips feel better. Thank you for a wonderful product and I will recommend it to my friends many of whom are in their 50's like me with drying skin and lips. Where did all that moisture go?
Ruth Ann M., East Liverpool, Ohio 6/13/2004 I received my order of Karite Gold today. Thanks for the speedy delivery. As in the testimonials, I've used other more refined brands and liked them but the texture of your product is especially smooth. I like having the pure unrefined bulk butter so that I can add my own essential oils or use it as is. I have heated other shea butters to reduce it to oil consistency for better blending and transfering to other containers. I want to avoid compromising it's healing qualities, though. Is it heat sterilized? Will the newsletter have some recipies for skin care?
Thanks,
Jane L., Kansas City, MO 6/10/2004 Nicole,
I just wanted you to know that I received your products earlier this week. Just in the short time frame of use, I've noticed a BIG difference with my feet. I'm not sure of all the uses, but have decided to try it on my face as well. I thought if it could heal the cracks in my feet, it might help reduce lines in my face. It it's not for facial use, please let me know. Otherwise, I'm going to continue to use it in that manner and hope that it works.
I was also wondering what it takes to possibly be a rep for your product. When something is a winner, I'd like to promote it.
Thanks for your immediate response regarding my lost shipment. I was counting the days until it came to my front door. Now that I have it, I'm excited to share it with my family and friends.
Sincerely,
Dawn G., Conroe, TX 6/4/2004 Hi Nichole,
I have been using your products for a few years now (that’s why I keep coming back)! I started out with the Original Karite gold, and found it gritty compared to the scented (more blended) versions. The texture makes these glide on my skin much, much easier and they also seem to soften quicker for ease of application. I adore the scents and was wondering if in the future you would try a simple bergamot scent or a ginger (two of my personal favorites) . I love the smoothness of the lip balms and have also tried the black soap.
Keep up the good work
Love your products
Char G., Phoenix, AZ 6/4/2004 I met Sharon Moore at her house (a friend was interested in buying some
African drums) in Rogue River, OR a few years ago and we commented on her
beautiful skin and complexion. She showed us a sample of Karite Gold, we
both bought some and I have used nothing else on my face since. I have my
kids put it on their scrapes and cuts and recently had some abrasions myself
so I used it on those, too. I have tried other Shea Butters but none have
the smoothness and texture of Karite Gold.
thanks
Anna D., Jacksonville, OR 5/29/2004 I did receive the lip balm that I ordered and have used it the last few days and it seems to be working when other products that I have tried did not. Thank you.
Vivian H., Commerce Township, MI 5/17/2004 Just wanted to let you know what great service you have and how pleased I am with the lip balms. I've suffered from chapped lips for years. After only a few days of using your lip balms my lips have improved tremedously -- hardly any flaking. They are so smooth, and I love the flavors! I'll definitely be ordering more and will probably order some as stocking goodies for relatives this Christmas!
Thank you so much!
Hayley B., Knoxville, TN 5/17/2004 I have the Shea Butter for feet and I love it. It's the only product I have found that stops my feet from itching. This is a wonderful product and I'll definitely buy more!
Gina. K., City Island, NY 5/13/2004 Hello Nicole,
I really like the consistency and texture of Karite Gold. I ordered the original Karite Gold and found the scent of Myrrh a bit powerful (can't smell any Lavender) and masculine for my liking. I gave it to my husband!
I'm giving the Jasmine-infused Karite Gold a try. Since I don't see Lavender infused Karite Gold, I'm going to add some to the plain butter.
Thanks!
Chris T., Albuquerque, NM 5/12/2004 hello,
this is my 3rd or 4th jar of natural shea butter. I keep buying it because it's the only thing I've found that keeps my feet soft. Before finding you, I did try a more processed blend of shea butter from another company, but didn't see that it did much good. I first heard of shea butter when I attended a continuing education workshop on aromatherapy (I'm a registered massage therapist). The workshop facilitator recommended shea butter as a vehicle for essential oils. She said that unlike grapeseed or other oils which are typically used in aromatherapy, shea butter wouldn't stain sheets. I am still experimenting with blending the natural shea butter with other oils or lotions to make it "spreadable" enough for use in massage - or for that matter, on my face - but for my feet, I'm sold. I found your company by sifting through lots of web sites that advertised shea butter. I liked your site best because it was the most informative & personal, and because it referenced the magic of natural healing. And then, of course, once I tried your unrefined version, I was hooked. I'm going to send my mom a jar for Mother's Day.
Thanks for what you're doing, and for asking whether I was pleased with your product & service. True customer service is rare these days.
stephanie s, san antonio, texas 4/30/2004
Hi there Nichole,
As promised, I am writing to let you know, how I got on with your wonderful
lip balm. Firstly, I must congratulate you on the speed with which your
package was delivered. Having received your e-mail on the Monday, informing
me that you had despatched the package via priority mail, it arrived on my
door-step the following Friday morning! Considering it came all the way
from the USA, I think the delivery time was absolutely first class! Please
believe me when I say this country has got a lot of catching up to do to
compete with the service you provide!
As soon as I took delivery, the package wasd and the lip balm used
immediately. I could feel the soothing relief on my poor chapped lips
straight away and by the end of that day, my lips were feeling so much more
moisturised and comfortable. One week later and they are totally back to
normal and I only need apply the balm morning and evening to keep them soft
and smooth. Aaah, what a relief! My daughter frequently suffers from
dryness and soreness in the corners of her mouth, so she grabbed a stick of
lip balm and I haven't seen it since! She loves it too! Her mouth has
completely healed. I have also passed one on to my Mother who also suffers
from very dry lips and it is a standing joke in the family that she is the
Lip Salve Queen! Every time one of us sees her reaching for her handbag
someone will comment, "Uh oh, here comes a lippy moment!!" Since using her
Karite Lip Balm, those lippy moments have all but stopped!
You must, by now, have gathered that I am highly delighted with your Karite
Lip Balm and no doubt, once all six sticks have been used, I will be sending
for more! Having read the information you provide, about the "damage" that
petroleum jelly based lip salves can do, I shall never use an "ordinary" lip
balm again!
Thank you for sorting out this family's chapped lip problems!
With very best wishes,
Jan N., Potters Bar, Hertfordshire, UK 4/24/2004 I received my order yesterday. I love your products and super-fast
shipping! Thanks a lot!
Rebecca A., Bloomfield Hills, MI 3/14/2004 This is my second order and I cannot tell you how amazed I was at the way that your acne soap works. I have been having a bad and serious acne condition for two years, and I have tried so many things. I was just hoping that this would be the last thing that I would try and all I can say is that it has been wonderful, the effects began as early as a week later. Thank you so much, I have told my friends about you and I just hope that you stay around forever.
Tiffany M., Inglewood, CA 3/9/2004 Thanks for your concern…
I had ordered the shea butter for my son--he has a very heavy beard and has a problem with ingrown hairs on his face and neck..I had heard somewhere that the shea butter made the beard so supple that it would be shaved right off--no chaffing etc.. He says he tried it and didn't notice too much of a change, but I sure notice he is shaving closer, more often..so I would say it was a success.
Thanks again,
Joyce M., Gilbert, AZ 3/8/2004 I LOVE your product. I have given gifts of your lavender-myrrh (my favorite). Would like to know if you have small trial shea with other good smells?
Clay L., Sonora, CA 3/2/2004 HI.
I would like for you to come out with liquid shea butter body wash and scrub. Also African black soap in liquid so I can just order from you guys. The shea butter is the best gives my skin a nice glow. I bought the lavender & myrrh for my niece who has excema and it does wonders. Thanks,
Pam W., Stilwell, OK 2/21/2004 Dear Karite Gold,
Your acne soap is amazing. My daughter has very oily skin, so I got a bar for her. It has really helped her a lot.
Thanks very much. Things are a lot better around the house when she's happy.
Pat G., Wilmer, MN 2/13/2004 You guys sure have a great product. I never tried shea butter before but since my skin is always dry I decided to try it. It works like a charm. I'll be ordering another jar very soon.
Thanks,
Josephine L., Monterey, CA 2/8/2004 Your shea butter lip balm is super. Until I read your explanation I never realized why regular lip balm (petroleum based) doesn't work very well. My lips get very dry, so I have to use something, but I was never happy with the other lip balms I tried. Your shea butter lip balm is so much better. I use less and my lips never get dry now.
Thanks for solving my dry lips problem.
Andrea S., Concord, MA 1/28/2004 Dear Karite Gold,
I love your new lip balm. I have been a customer for years and use a lot of shea butter because my skin is so dry without it. I never thought of using your shea butter on my lips, but then I tried your lip balm and it is so much better than chapstick. I'll be ordering more very soon.
Tiffany K., Denver, CO 1/27/2004 Dear Nichole,
This is the first time I tried shea butter. My wife has been after me to try it since she uses it and loves it. I get very bad cracking in the bottoms of my feet. She said shea butter would fix the problem, and if I had listened to her, I would have gotten rid of the problem a long time ago. I purchased your Shea Butter for Foot Care about a month ago, and the cracks started to go away almost immediately. Now they are gone completely.
Thanks for making such a good product.
Don D., Jacksonville, FL 1/8/2004 I have been meaning to write you for some time to tell you how well your shea butter is working for me. I had eczema something terrible and tried several things but they didn't help. In October I got your Shea Butter with Bergamot and Patchouli and it cleared up my eczema completely in a matter of weeks. I've been using it every day since then and the eczema hasn't come back. I'm keeping my fingers crossed.
Thanks so much!
Laura W., Austin, TX 1/4/2004 Dear Karite Gold,
I want to thank you for making my skin problem go away. For years places on my skin got very dry and rough. I tried all kinds of different creams and none of them helped. I heard that shea butter might help, so I tried that and it's amazing. I know you hear this all the time, but I just wanted to tell you because it's such a relief to have found something that works!
Thank you so much!!
Ella R., Buffalo, NY 12/8/2003 Hi Nichole
I got my shipment of soap Monday. I have started using it.
I stumbled on this product about two weeks ago. In the winter, my fingers get terrible splits and bleed. I have tried everything. All I could get was 100% Shea Butter and started using that. My fingers have completely healed up and my hands have not felt this good in years. I live in the mid-west and my fingers have done the splits for the last 10 years, getting progressively worse. I have suffered with acne off and on since the age of 11. Nothing works on that either.
Your soap seems to have a very cleansing effect. I've been using it at night as directed. I let you know in a week or so how my skin is reacting.
Lanoix D., St Louis, MO 11/19/2003 I love your shea butter. I have been using shea butter for several years because I have dry skin, but I just recently got yours for the first time. I never purchased shea butter with essential oils before. I got the shea butter with lavender and myrrh and the shea butter with Sandalwood and Patchouli and not only are both scents really nice, but the shea butter with essential oils is the best moisturizer I have ever used.
Mary M., El Paso, TX 11/13/2003 Dear Nicole,
My skin was starting to make me look old, so I decided to try shea butter. I had heard good things about it, but wasn't expecting miracles. Well I'd say I pretty much got a miracle. I started using your shea butter about 2 months ago and almost immediately I could see and feel the difference. Now my skin looks like it did 10 years ago.
Thanks so much for making such a wonderful product.
Sarah D, Austin, TX 10/27/2003 Hello,
I received my order today and put a little of the shea butter on my hand and it was WONDERFUL!!!
I can't wait to try it on the rest of my body and to use the black soap. :-)
Thank you and I look forward to using the product more and getting back with you again.
Pamela D., N. Las Vegas, NV 10/24/2003 I have been using your Shea Butter for Foot Care for several weeks and it is fantastic. I can't describe how big a change it has made to my heels. They were totally hard and rough and now they're totally soft and smooth. And the irritation I used to have is completely gone. You have made a friend for life.
Thanks,
John W., Portland, OR 10/7/2003 Dear Karite Gold -
I love the fragrances of your products. I've used shea butter for many years, but until I bought yours, I had always used plain shea butter. I tried your original formula first, and then your shea butter with Jasmine, and then the Vanilla, Grapefruit, and Myrrh. They all do wonders for my skin, and they also seem to make me feel more upbeat.
Charlene R., Atlanta, GA 10/2/2003 Thank you for the quick response. You are right about the mail, sometimes it amazes me how fast some things get to their destination and then sometimes it seems to take forever. My wife has been using your shea butter to treat her roseashia, after all the chemicals her doctors have given her in the last 7 months the Shea butter has almost cleared her condition in less then one week.
Thank you again,
Louis M., St Augustine, Fl 9/25/2003 I love this product. I have Rosacea and this is the first product that really controls the burning. Also after only 4 days the veins on my face are barely noticeable. I even think that I look younger (of course since my birthday is Friday). I feel sure this will be a good product for our winter weather in the mid-West.
I ordered this for my daughter (Deserae) who is expecting. I am sure this product will prevent stretch marks.
Ruth M., Kansas City, MO 9/23/2003 When I saw you had a product especially for dry, cracked feet, I decided to buy it. I'm really glad I did. It works way better than anything else I've ever tried - and I've tried a lot of things. Please never stop offering your foot care product.
Bill S., Redwood City, CA 9/15/2003 Dear Nichole,
I was so upset when I got perioral dermatitis because it is so noticeable. My best friend told me that she read that shea butter works really well for it, so I tried your shea butter with Lavender and Myrrh. It's wonderful. Not only does it make my perioral dermatitis go away, but it makes my skin so soft.
Thanks so much for making such a great product.
Sally L., Princeton, NJ 9/6/2003 Dear Karite Gold
I read a lot of the letters you got from your customers and that convinced me to try your product for my dry skin. (I got your product with the jasmine essential oil.) I just want to say that it works just as well as everybody said. When my skin is dry it just doesn't feel right and it doesn't look very good. Now my skin feels great and it looks as good as it did when I was younger. I'm very happy I bought your product. Thank you very much.
Gloria G., Bryn Mawr, PA 8/27/2003 I was skeptical that shea butter would help my stretch marks, but everyone said it would, so I decided to give it a try. It's unbelievable how well it works. I understand from your web site that shea butter increases the skin's elasticity. That must be what happens because my stretch marks are much less noticeable. I have told all my friends how well your product works. Thanks ever so much.
Tiffany W., Lincoln, NE 8/24/2003 Excellent product! I used the first batch, now my wife wants some…
Kyle L., Pine, CO 8/4/2003 Dear Nichole,
I bought your shea butter with bergamot and patchouli and it has done wonders for my eczema. I wish I had heard about shea butter before. But at least I have now finally found something that works.
Thanks ever so much!
Elaine G., Santa Fe, NM 7/26/2003 Dear Karite Gold,
I just want to tell you how much I appreciate your sending me a replacement package for the one the Post Office smashed up. There are a lot of companies that would have told me that it wasn't their problem.
Also, I love all your different scents. I'm really glad you suggested that I get the retailer sampler package even though I'm not a retailer.
Thank you and you will be hearing from me again soon.
Mary A., Columbia, SC 7/19/2003 Hi,
I want to thank you for your great product. I have had serious problems with my feet for years. Right around the edges of the soles of my feet the skin was always badly cracked. I tried a lot of things to fix the problem but nothing worked. I got your Shea Butter with Sandalwood and Patchouli about two weeks ago and within just a couple of days, the problem got a lot better. Today the cracks are gone.
Thanks very much.
Bill D., Jacksonville, FL 7/10/2003 Hi Nicole!
Thanks for confirmation. I have had so much trouble with my skin over the years. My skin was
gorgeous until I turned 27. I am 48 now. I was given a dose of birth control pills that were too strong for me. My skin went wacko and has never been the same. I have cystic acne and brown splotches all the time. After many chemical peels and harsh lightening products, I give up! This is my last resort.
I have heard many good things about your product. Hope it works for me.
Thanks again, Linda
Linda B., Baldwin, MD 7/9/2003 Hi,
I'm a repeat user and a happy user. I recently had an abdominal hysterectomy and not happy with the incision across my belly so I'm using the shea butter so the scarring will be minimal and so far it's looking good. I've also been using the shea butter on my face, neck & chest for some time now and happy with how my skin looks, I've been happily surprised with the shrinkage in some skin tags on my neck. I'm almost out of my first container so please rush me my two containers. Thank you so much…….
B. R., Salida, CA 6/27/2003 Dear Nicole,
Thanks so much for explaining everything so clearly to me. I have been using your product for about 3 weeks now and my eczema is much much better. Like I told you when I called to ask you my questions about shea butter, I had almost given up hope of finding something that would work. I don't know how much it's the shea butter and how much it's the Bergamot and Patchouli, but whatever it is, it's working.
Thanks ever so much!
Christine R., Tucson, AZ 6/24/2003 Dear Nicole,
At my tanning salon they told me to use shea butter to keep my skin moist and to heal any burning. I bought some of your shea butter with lavender and myrrh like your site suggests and I'm ecstatic! My skin has never looked better and never felt better!
Thanks so much for your wonderful product!
Elyse N., New York, NY 6/12/2003 Dear Nichole
I read that shea butter makes your skin look younger. Since my skin was beginning to look a little old, I decided to try it. I don't know if all shea butter works as well as yours does, but I can't believe the difference it has made to my skin.
The reason for my big order recently is that I decided to give your shea butter to my sisters and to some of my friends.
You have a customer for life! Thanks,
Sarah J., St Paul, MN 6/11/2003 Dear Karite Gold,
If I don't use shea butter, my skin gets terribly dry. I have been a loyal customer for over 2 years. And I didn't think I would ever switch from your Original Formula. But I read that jasmine is really good for dry and sensitive skin, so I tried your shea butter with jasmine. It moisturizes just as well, and I love the scent. Thanks so much!
Alisha M., Colorado Springs, CO 6/1/2003 I bought your original formula before and it worked so good on my feet that I came back for more - even though it smells kind of fem. I was happy to see that you have more products now. This time I bought the Shea Butter with Bergamot and Patchouli. It maybe works even better and the smell is great.
Jim R., Atlanta, GA 5/23/2003 Dear Nichole,
A friend told me about your website, but she didn't tell me that you have so many fragrances. Just kind of on the spur of the moment, I bought your Original Formula and your Shea Butter with Ylang-ylang, Vanilla and Patchouli and your Shea Butter with Sandalwood and Lavender. I love them all. I can hardly wait to run out so I can try some others!
Tiffany L., Houston, TX 5/22/2003 Dear Karitegold,
I just found your website last week and received my Karitegold a few days later. I suffer from Perioral Dermitits and have used every treatment under the sun without success. Well I have found my success finally and it was with Karitegold. I have only used it for 3 days and cannot believe how my face has improved. People have already commented on how much better my skin looks. I am usually sceptic (do to bad experiences with other products) and Karitegold was my last resort. I guess that why they say, save the best for last.
Thank you so much!
Chamaine B., Millbury, MA 5/19/2003 I just want to thank you so much for answering all of my questions when I called. I like the Shea Butter with Jasmine a lot, but I just love the Ylang-Ylang and Myrrh. Thanks again for being so helpful.
Tammy M., Washington, DC 5/16/2003 Dear Whom It May Concern
I'm interested in buying a small order of bulk shea butter (ten pounds). I have a few questions about this butter--is it the same butter as is contained in your small four ounce shea containers? What container is the bulk order held in? What is the cost of shipping? Also, what is the price of your shea soap?
Thanks so much for your help! I'm so pleased with your product!
Cordially,
Julie I., Northampton, MA 5/4/2003 I have been getting a rash off and on for many years. I tried all kinds of things to get rid of it. I've seen 3 different doctors. A friend of mine suggested that I try shea butter and so I bought some of yours a couple of months ago. I am amazed by how well it has worked. Not only does it make the rash go away, but it seems like the rash doesn't come back as soon either.
Thanks very much!
Ellen Y., San Jose, CA 5/1/2003 Dear Karite Gold,
Thanks for sending me the second jar. I liked your Pure Shea Butter, but the Shea Butter with essential oils seems to work even better. Thanks again,
Susan R., Nashville, TN 4/27/2003 Dear Nichole,
My hands have always been very dry. Other moisturizers I tried only work for a little while - I feel like I'm always putting them on all day long. Karite Gold is much better. I put it on more the first week, but now I only have to put it on once a day. My hands have never felt better. Thanks so much.
Marie J., San Antonio, TX 4/26/2003 Your Shea Butter is the first thing I've tried that both keeps my hands soft and doesn't make my acrylic nails come off. I use it every day now and I would like to know if you are going to offer it in a bigger size?
Mary Ellen W., Glenwood, MN 4/19/2003 Dear Nicole,
As I told you when I called, I have suffered from Rosacea since my twenties. I have tried a lot of things, but I want you to know that your shea butter with essential oils has helped me more than anything else I have ever tried. And I want you to know how much I appreciate the time you spent telling me about shea butter and the essential oils you use. I never had that kind of treatment before from a web company.
Thanks so much.
Al B., Lincoln, NE 4/12/2003 I have been purchasing Karite Gold for two years. Originally I bought it following a series of chemotherapy treatments which left my skin like fish scales! After two months of use, people were asking me what my secret was to such dewy and youthful looking skin -- at the age of 54.
I have introduced Karite Gold to all the women in my family and while they may not all be as diligent as I am about using it, they all sing its praises.
Juanita L-H., Greensboro, NC 4/2/2003 Nicole,
I didn't used to have a problem with dry skin, but as I've gotten older, I have been noticing that my skin is getting a lot more dry. I tried some different lotions, but they didn't really help very much. They helped for a few hours, but then my skin was just as dry as before. Then a friend told me about your shea butter. I've only been using it for about 3 weeks now, but already there is a very big difference. My skin is now just like it was when I was younger.
Margaret B., Austin, TX 3/16/2003 Dear Nicole,
I wish someone had told me about your product long ago. I have had eczema off and on for many years. But over the past 3 or 4 years it has gotten a lot worse and I have been trying everything - with no luck. Your shea butter is the first thing I've found that fixes my problem. Thank you so much.
Bill S., Jacksonville, FL 3/12/2003 Dear Nicole,
I purchased shea butter a while ago from someone else and wasn't very impressed. But then when I told that to a friend, she gave me some of yours to try and WOW! The stuff I bought before must not have been the real thing. I'm so glad she told me about your website.
Sandra K., Cambridge, MA 3/2/2003 Because of the medications I take, my skin gets very dry. Your shea butter fixes the problem better than anything else I have ever tried. Thanks,
Mary S., Palo Alto, CA 2/28/2003 I recently ordered the Shea butter with the essential oils, and it is GREAT!!! Thanks so much for your wonderful products!
Suzanne K., Palos Verdes Estates, CA 2/22/2003 I received my first jar of your shea butter a week ago and I started using it twice a day. After only two days, I noticed a big difference. I'm so happy.
Thank you very much!
Margaret C., New Brunswick, NJ 2/21/2003 Dear Nicole,
Thank you so much for sending me the second jar. The day after I called you, the postman delivered the first jar. I love the way you treat your customers. You now have a customer for life.
Amy F., Jacksonville, FL 2/15/2003 Nicole,
I had very bad cracks and calouses on the bottom of my feet that nothing helped with. I tried your product two weeks ago and it's like a miracle.
Please put this email on your testimonials page if you want.
Chuck R., Kansas City, MO 2/12/2003 Nicole, This is the third jar of Shea Butter I've gotten from you. I love it and I love the scent. But I was wondering if you are going to offer other scents?
Andrea M., Huntsville, AL 2/4/2003 Dear Nicole,
Your shea butter is fantastic! I have tried several other different shea butter products and yours works the best for me.
Sara W., Austin TX 1/28/2003 Dear Karite Gold,
I bought your product because I have very dry hands and arms due to my work. It's not a really bad problem, so I figured since your product helped people with bad problems, it might work for me. It sure does. Since I started using your product, no more dryness. Thanks,
George K., Denver, CO 1/24/2003 Hi Nichole just wanted to let you know that I received my karite gold friday morning. It really makes my hands so soft and smooth feeling. Next time I will try your shea butter with oils. It is really better than other butters I have tried. Thanks
Barbara M., Pleasant Valley, MO 1/10/2003 Hello again Deni,
I received your Karite Gold package that I ordered, and I must say that I really love it, and am happy that I have finally found a cream that is perfect for my skin--not an easy thing! I have given my sister some of the sample one you sent me since she has an eczema-like rash around her nose area, and I hope she will enjoy it too.
Kind regards,
Karen G., Mississauga, Ontario 1/9/2003 We are buying this to use on our dog's elbows per our vet's suggestion. He says it works great on softing their pads. We'll let you know.
Carol D., Huntington Beach, CA 11/27/2002 Good Morning!
I was pleasantly surprised to find my package when I got home last night. You guys are really fast! For some reason, I thought the shea butter would be more lotion-like than it was. I warmed it up with my fingers before applying. Felt good but will keep using & write to tell you the difference it has made.
Thanks for the prompt delivery!
Ginny W., Ellicott City, MD 11/19/2002 The Karite Gold is the only product that I have used after shaving sensitive areas on of my legs that works! It is also healing after having electrolysis. It not only heals those red and bumpy skin irritations, but also makes my skin softer than it's ever been. I love the fragrance, too! I would like to wear it on other parts of my body, but I am not allowed to wear frangrances to work. Let me know if there is a non fragranced version as well. Thank you
Carolyn S., Allendale, NJ 11/15/2002 I just got my Karite Gold today, and my rough elbows are already improving. I didn't get this kind of results after using the fancy medicated lotions from the drugstore for weeks. I should have tried this stuff sooner.
Bridget F., Ponchatoula, LA 11/7/2002 Thanks...I had never used shea butter before trying yours and after purchasing the first order and using it..i wasn't sure it was the product for me...so my next shea butter purchase was from a well known commercial vendor and (i did make sure the product contained shea butter) after using it only a week...with disappointing results... i have returned to Karite Gold the results are far superior...now i can't wait to get back to the superior product...Thanks!
Gale G., Bryan, TX 10/30/2002 I received my Karite Gold almost 2 weeks ago, and from the VERY first time I used it, I knew it was not like facial products I have used in the past. I had these flaky places around my hairline, and have had red, scaly places around my mouth and on my chin that I had to put liquid makeup on in an attempt to hide them. Since I have been using the Karite Gold, the scaly places are virtually gone, and I have not had to put makeup on anything . I wish it could be bought by the 55 gallon drum, so that I never run out. The smell is wonderful, too.
Thank you,
Carolyn P., Springfield, TN 10/17/2002 After using Karite Gold for a week my hands are noticeably softer and smoother. It even softened my dry elephant-skin-like elbows! I also like to use it to soothe my feet. Plus it's gentle enough to use as a moisturizer on my face. The subtle "brown sugar" sweet fragrance is also pleasant!
A satisfied and pleased customer,
Emily Z., Omaha, Nebraska 10/4/2002 Hello,
Are you going to be offering other natural products in the future, like shea butter soaps and lotions? Also, will you be offering those alabaster pots again?
You have a wonderful product!!
Linda B., Sebastopol, CA 9/22/2002 Dear Deni,
I am thrilled with my Karite Gold. I am big into skin care and I could just feel my skin drinking it all up. Do you have any pamphlets on your products or a magazine? Would love to get one with my next order...And there will be....THANK YOU...And after you reply to me about the breaking out matter I will really rave on in a testimonial for you.
Sincerely,
Tracy K., Elmira, OR 9/17/2002 Dear Deni:
I did receive the Karite Gold - all my staff told me that it sure smelled good in my office!! As I had told you, I have been using shea butter for about a year now. But your product is so fragrant and it leaves my skin so soft and smooth!! I appreciate the timeliness of the order, as I was all out. I also appreciate the excellent service I received when I called asking alot of questions.
Thats for the "cool clips" -- you know we ride bikes! This is just a suggestion -- but you should set up a booth at the various bikes shows around the country and market this to the biker chics! It can protect them from the sun and keep their skin supple. Of course, the guys will benefit from using this product as well -- no sunburn. The next bike rally I am aware of is the one in Las Vegas around the 15th of September. If you do this let me know how it works out! Thanks again -- I will be calling to reorder for sure!
Best regards,
Anna M., Peoria, AZ 8/24/2002 Hi,
I hope this note finds you well ! Just wanted to let you know that I recieved my order. I was very pleased with the Karite Gold. It really smooths my skin. I also use it often on my hair and scalp. It really keeps my hair and skin from being dry. Thanks for a wonderful product and a speedy response.
PS Thanks for sending me a bar of Sheaba Soap. It is great!!!!!!
Sincerely,
Pamela G., Charleston, SC 8/12/2002 hello Deni
this is Margie I got my sheabutter and it sure is different my skin fees so soft after using it the kind i was using was a tan color i have been using it for a year I would like to know how it get its yellow color.
Margie C., Hazard, KY 8/10/2002 Deni,
The shea butter is really doing a number on my skin, it hasn't felt this young in a long time! I am so glad I found your web site! Thank you
Starla T., Heyburn, ID 7/30/2002 Hi Deni,
Wanted to let you know that my order arrived. Thanks so much for great service. I've only used Karite Gold now for a day and a half and so far I like it very much.
Thanks again....
Peg M., Catlett, VA 7/14/2002 Hi Deni,
I have been watching and enjoying the changes in my skin since receiving my first order…. I have several health problems that have effected and aged my skin so much. My hands are coming back to life .. the rest of me is softer than I can ever remember being! I'm very grateful to have found Karite Gold!
Thank you so much,
Deborah M., Costa Mesa, CA 7/2/2002 Dear Deni,
Thank you for the very nice reply to my email, what a pleasure! I use a different brand of shea butter product now, but this seemed to be a better product by far when reading your information. This is a very well put together web site, and that along with your product information really sold me. I am looking forward to doing business with you!
Sincerely
Janene R., Nortonville, KY 7/2/2002 Thank you for the order. I have rec'vd it and I have been using it on myself and my son. We both have excema and it seems to be working pretty good so far as to keeping our skin moisturized. I love the fragrance and the texture of it.
Sincerely,
Teresa P., Palmdale, CA 6/11/2002 Hello,
I received my Karite Gold and have been using it now for a couple of weeks with amazing results. It's a miracle in a jar!! I have been using it on some dry, itchy, eczema-like patches on my back and shoulder that developed over the winter. They're almost compelety gone!! This product is so great. Thank you.
Thanks!
Lorraine R., Toronto, Ontario 6/9/2002 Dear Chilhowee-Gold,
Thank you for your advice of my forthcoming shipment. I am already a happy user of your Karite Gold. A friend of mine gave me a bottle and I am now one of your loyal users. I am using it as a moisturiser for my face and also for those dry parts of my body, ie knees, elbows and feet. Needless to say in a matter of weeks my face is glowing and no harsh scaly areas on my knees elbows and feet. I no longer am using those expensive cosmetic creams that I keep changing and trying. I have recommended your product to my daughter who lives in England, and to a very good friend of mine here. I have purchased two bottles, one for each of them to introduce them to it thus the reason for your shipment.
I will be ordering a bottle of the 6oz with essential oils again for myself in the next month, so you will be hearing from me again soon. Thank you for your wonderfull product, and please do not ever go out of business.
Thanks!
Phillippa G., Miami, FL 6/5/2002 Hi Deni!
Thank you for keeping me up to date on the status of my order! (Now thats what I call good customer service!) I received my package on yesterday. I am enjoying this large quantity of African Shea Butter. My mother and I use it and we both love this stuff! A muslim friend of mine turned me on to the shea butter. I was telling him that I have the bumps and discoloration on my forehead. So he gave some Shea butter and it really does smooth out your skin. I will wash my face in black soap and afterwards put on some Shea butter as a moisturizer and people think I have on foundation.
I have been looking for African Shea Butter for awhile on the net. I haven't been able to find a decent price or quantity. But now I found what I had been looking for.
Thanks.
Sha-nniece J., Richmond, VA 6/4/2002 Hi Deni,
I received your gift of Karite Gold and I want to say thanks again. I love the way it feels on my skin and can't wait until it takes 20 years off my face! :-) Would you please send me any info you might have so my partner and I can consider Karite Gold as a skin care product for resale in my salon?
Thanks!
Molly F., Frederick, MD 5/17/2002 Thanks for the "personal touch" message. I am a confirmed user of Karite Gold, even though I have access to "pure" or rather unpurified shea butter from a local African Market. Sometimes I buy that for my feet, but only Karite Gold touches my face, shoulders, etc. I am a medical miracle -- a six year liver transplant survivor. The anti-rejection drugs that I have to take keep me alive and going strong, but they make my skin dry and patchy. Karite Gold smoothes it right back out. That is why when I first discovered the product, I told all my women friends -- and a few men, too. Everyone loves it.
And I was DELIGHTED at the lower price! Your product is fantastic!
Juanita L., Greensboro, NC 5/1/2002 Deni,
Just want to let you know that the final package arrived today. Well, let me say that this really is a superior shea butter - better than all I have tried and worth the price! It works great for me without the essential oils - so creamy and luxurious on the skin. The "natural" odor is very mild. I put it on all day yesterday with no problems - despite my skin sensitivity. It is definitely a "keeper"! Do you think you will ever offer the unscented as an option on your website? Thanks again for all your kind assistance and great customer service!
Sincerely,
Jean R., Colorado Springs, CO 4/12/2002 Thanks for your quick response to my question and for making me feel important. I just sent a PayPal order to you, and am excited to use your special formula on my husband’s cracked, dry feet!!
Betty A., Olympia, WA 4/4/2002 Although I ordered your shea butter product for my dry hands, I’ve been using it on some dark spots I have on my neck for a couple of weeks. To my surprise, they are fading!!! Just thought I’d share my satisfaction with you.
Marge R., Salem, OR 4/2/2002 Dear Karite Gold,
I have to say how impressed I am with your service. Before I even purchased, Deni quickly answered my emails to give me possible solutions to my stretch mark problem. I was even more impressed when your company followed up to make sure I received my order. There aren’t many companies that do that. The best part is that after using your formula for only three weeks, I’m seeing the scarring soften and fade, so I’m already happy I purchased.
Warmest regards!
Tanya S., Fort Lauderdale, FL 3/25/2002 Deni,
As soon as I started using your shea butter on my baby’s diaper rash, it was gone. Now I use it on her everyday (that’s why you keep getting orders from me) and she hasn’t had the rash since. I’m totally convinced the shea butter is the best product I’ve used. Thanks for your great suggestion!
Dalia P., Los Angeles, CA 3/18/2002 Dear Sirs,
I just wanted to email you a quick thanks for making a product that really works for razor bumps. I have battled with that since I began shaving as a late teen and nothing has worked despite the many claims. After only a few days, I’m shaving and there are NO BUMPS!! You have a customer for life!
Samuel N., Detroit, MI 3/17/2002 Just received my package today. Thanks for the great service and quick delivery of my order. By the way, the fragrance is just wonderful!
Thanks again.
Janelle O., Seattle, WA 3/6/2002 Deni,
At your suggestion, I used Karite Gold on my teenage son’s face for his acne (he’d be mad if he knew I was telling anyone!). I felt so bad for him because some of the other kids were making fun of him at school. After using your product daily (actually at night) for 30 days, the difference is remarkable!! 75% of his blemishes are gone!! At first I had a hard time getting him to use it because he thought it was a woman’s product, but now I have to go to his room to find it most of the time! I’ll be placing my 3rd order this weekend.
Thanks again!
Victoria Y., Little Rock, AR 2/27/2002 Just wanted to let you know I already received my order - that was fast!! I’ll be sure to let you know how it works on my psoriasis. My sister in Miami swears by it, so I’m sure it will be great.
Candice P., Groton, CT 2/18/2002 Deni,
Thanks for the personal attention - it's not something I'm used to nowadays... will be sure to advertise your product for you by word of mouth... still the best way to sell products... have you considered making a shea butter sugar scrub? I'd certainly be interested...once again, your attention to personal detail goes a long way.
Thanks.
Morissa L., Augusta, GA 2/13/2002 Friends,
Don’t be surprised if you get a few more orders from San Antonio. After bringing my jar of your formula into work and letting the girls in the office have a sample (a small one!), they just had to know where I got it. Thanks for making a great product at a reasonable price!
Alicia M., San Antonio, TX 2/10/2002 Dear Karite Gold,
I think I’ve used nearly every product on the market to keep me from breaking out when I use the tanning bed, but nothing has worked. After reading that your product was effective for that purpose, I decided to try it - why not??! To my delight, I began using it immediately following my tanning sessions for about a month now and haven’t broken out once!! Also, my skin isn’t all dried out and scaly like it used to be after tanning. Thanks for a great product! Now I can show off my beautiful tan!
Jennifer R., Denver, CO. 2/3/2002 Karite Gold,
Wow! I read the testimonials about how great your customer service was, but I was a little skeptical. This is fantastic though. Don't ever change the way you do business, good customer service is a rare commodity these days! Thank you, and I'll be sure to let you know what I think of the Karite Gold.
Again, thanks.
Naomi S., St Louis, MO 1/29/2002 Deni,
Talk about great customer service!!! I wish there were more companies that take care of the customer like you!! Thanks so much! I’ll let you know how your shea butter works on my dark spots.
Shelly M., Chico, CA 1/22/2002 Dear Karite Gold,
I don't usually write testimonials, but had to e-mail you with my recent experience. During a battle with my wood stove, I burned myself good on the underside of my forearm. I usually let burns and cuts go, but my wife brought in her Karite Gold and said, "Honey, let me put this on your burn". I was resistant at first because I didn't want to smell like no woman, but I let her go ahead. I was amazed in the morning when the swelling was gone and the area was barely sensitive to the touch. Probably the most amazing thing is that there was no scarring when it healed. I'd definitely use your product on my hands and feet at least, but won't until you come out with something that says "for men" so I don't have to smell like a woman.
Tim L., Grants Pass, OR 1/17/2002 Dear sirs,
Just a quick e-mail to let you know how surprised we were that Karite Gold instantly stopped the pain and itching from my poison ivy. Will try it all over now as I see how soft my skin is.
Thank you.
Kelli G., Eagle Point, OR 12/11/2001 Dear Sirs,
I found out about Karite Gold from my sister-in-law who just raved about it. Knowing that I am very conservative, she knew that the only way to get me started on your products benefits was to send me one. In just a few days, I was completely sold as I watched in amazement at how much my skin condition improved! Our dry climate takes a serious toll on skin and all the lotions I've tried only provided temporary relief. Thanks for making Karite Gold available.
Marlena M., Palmdale, CA 11/16/2001 Dear Karite Gold,
Best of everything I've ever used on my dry skin! I started using it on my dry, cracked feet, putting cotton socks over the Karite application. Four days later, the old skin simply sloughed off. I now have a younger version of my feet. Now I use it everywhere.
Ben R., Phoenix, AZ 10/2/2001 Dear Karite Gold,
After spending a fortune on prescription drugs that my doctor prescribed for scaly, and bleeding skin, I finally found amazingly quick relief with Karite Gold. Even my doctor was astonished. My face is much smoother, too; those fine lines have disappeared.
Elaine J., Medford, OR 9/27/2001 Dear KG,
my makeup goes on much smoother now that lines and wrinkles have smoothed out. I love your product because it is affordable and all natural - unlike other anti-wrinkle products on the market.
Margaret L., Palm Desert, CA 9/19/2001 Dear Sharon, I've been using your product since you first started and I love it just as much as ever. This year I plan to give your product as Christmas presents to all those I care for.
Dezi C., Rogue River, OR 9/6/2001 Your Karite Gold is very popular in our family. You already have some of my in-laws as customers. I use it on our three-month-old daughter and have had great results with diaper rash. I've also rubbed it on her after her bath and it seems to soothe her - maybe it's aromatherapy!
Marietta G., Mobile, AL 9/4/2001 Dear Karite Gold,
After suffering for over 15 years with adult onset acne, I took a chance and tried my sisters Karite Gold. I had great results in only a week, and now after a month, I just had to tell you how grateful I am and need to order my own jar.
Bless you and thank you.
Rae D., Akron, OH 8/7/2001 Dear sirs,
Thanks for sending my order so quickly. My age spots are almost gone on my hands and my skin hasn't been this soft for a very long time. I am 74 and am no longer embarrassed t go out to lunch with the girls. I am sure you'll be hearing from them, as well. By the way, I love the fragrance.
Myrtle S., Dallas, TX 6/21/2001 To Whom It May Concern,
My friends have been asking what I am doing to look so rested and youthful. I am only 42, but years of smoking had taken their toll on my skin and hair. After I started using Karite Gold, I noticed a smoothing of the lines on my face within just a few days. My skin even looks translucent. I am a customer for life; please don't go out of business.
Janice R., Tucson, AZ 6/6/2001 Dear Sharon,
Just wanted to let you know how happy I am with Karite Gold! After a week, it cleaned up my raggedy cuticles and cracked dry hands. My brother had given me some of his wife's to try. I work outdoors in all climates and have just started using it as a protectant on my face. Please e-mail me when my order ships.
