Smell
I hate with a passion the smell of sesame seed oil. Now it’s on my face and I can’t escape the smell. Don’t know if it works, but I can’t get past the smell.

Hello, thank you for your honest review! We are very sorry to hear you were not satisfied with the scent of our Africa's Secret Multi-Use Balm. Due to the traditional roasting process of the shea nuts to make our shea butter as well as the use of sesame oil, this can result in a slightly "smoky", nutty aroma that may not be preferred by all consumers. We would be happy to discuss this in further detail and provide future recommendations for products that may work better for your specific preferences. Please do not hesitate to reach out to us at service@alaffia.com and we will be happy to help!

So moisturizing and calming!
I put it on before bed and I wake up without redness or flaky skin. It has helped calm and balance my skin so much. I also use their moisturizer, spray and face wash.
