I agree candybee, people do not research or care, they think it is easy to sell on Etsy and they will make money, ha!!! Jokes on them it is a lot of hard work with a great product.
I have some that are 2.5 years old, not grainy and still flavored but I don't sell them after they are 2 years old. I kept one from each batch until I settled on my go to recipe..
My unscented buttermilk bastile or castile to wash my hands with whipped shea put on after washing helps my hands a lot, they crack and bleed if I do not take this care of them. I put the shea butter on at night too.
