I just ordered some organic raw West African shea butter to use as a natural moisturizer. I am sure this is a silly question, but is it safe to use a raw beauty product from Africa? I guess I am paranoid because I have a family member who contracted a strange, serious illness in West Africa and I simply wondered if it's safe to use products from that region.
I understand that many people live there safely, and all the Amazon reviews for this product were very positive. Just wondering if there is any known danger in using such a product.
