Help!!! I Abandoned My Lotion For Shea Butter And This Happened by jennyswt(f): 11:11am On Mar 17, 2016 |
Good day all. I've always read good stories about the wonders of shea butter especially in fading stretch marks. So I decided to try it out on my thighs n butt. (NB:I only have a few lines of stretch marks on my thighs. I guess I just wanted it to b flawless). So I researched about it n only found positive tales and testimonies from people. I didn't see no side effect or allergy o. In fact, I wouldn't have believed if someone tells me it can have side effect cos of the way people praised it. So I abandoned my cream and commenced using shea butter last yr Dec. After about 3wks,i broke out in hives. Very itchy. I ran to the hospital immediately cos I don't joke with my health and the doctor initially thought it was an infection. After the test he found out it was an allergy. He prescribed loratadine. I still have the hives after taking it. I now bought benadryl ( an OTC drug). I can't deny the fact that there were some positive changes anyway but I can still see those ugly scars from the hive and it itches too. I don't know if anyone have experienced a similar allergic reaction due to shea butter, pls should tel me how you cured yours completely because I'm really uncomfortable with the itches and it's very embarrassing. |

Sorry bout ur itches. Sometimes,it isn't all too advisable to use purely unrefined products directly on the skin. I was using 100% virgin coconut oil and it was making me dark. Had to discontinue usage immediately and went back to my lotion. |

Baby girl calm down Incase you thought I was calling you an ode, it wasn't you. It was the fella above me And this thread should have been opened in the health section. You'll get more matured and useful replies there. Not romance. jennyswt: 1 Like |

If what you are using is steroid based, it will help with the darkening of the affected area too. |

you need a steroid cream for the itches .. as for the spots you can use eucerin cream.. dont know if its availaible in Nigeria... it happened to me all over my body cos i used it all over.... but within 3 weeks people were admiring my skin.. try this and dont worry.. withz time those dark spots will peel off |

Shea butter is overrated and it doesn't cure stretchmarks. There is no cure for stretchmarks, don't let anyone lie to you. |

lepasharon: Really? I have always held it( shea butter) in high esteem. I was applied it to an infected area on my body because I did not have access to any antifungal cream and it worked fine. Is there a possibility that the one she got is adulterated? |
