    Ma'am I just what to say "batana" oil can be white or black. There are two kinds. I am from Cameroon and Morocco particularly from the north and we have a palm kernels tree . We have been making and using since before I was born so I know. Matter of fact, my mom just sent me some, some Shea, and black seed from Morocco sent to arrive Monday after a long long struggle and journey 😅😆🥳The real unrefined one the smell may not the pleasant but works. Also for use as moisturizer on babies and adults especially if they have skin issues etc etc.

    Karen I can't say thanks enough. My hair is thriving. Took your advice and you are definitely a good hair care professional. My natural hair I had no experience with it. I was putting the shampoo on it instead of my scalp. I was used to going to the salon and now I don't go. And, I wanted to learn how to do it.
    When I started putting the shampoo on my scalp. Wow, apparently I had build up or closed pours from product usage. Now, it is a whole new ballgame. The amount of growth I've gotten in just a few months is incredible. The texture, my main concern, consistency, is there. It used to change with whatever products I put on it and I've got a regiment now. Thank You!!!!!!

      It is not always solid. Watch the video again. In warmer temperatures the Batana Oil is liquid. In cooler temperatures the Batana Oil is solid. Similar to how coconut oil becomes liquid and solid at different temperatures! That’s why she microwaved it to show you that in warmer temperatures the REAL Batana oil melted and became a liquid 💗

    I have been using Batana oil for over a decade directly from Honduras. It used to be so difficult to get it here in the States. Now everyone is trying to sell it and it’s not even real. I’ve seen the creams and the green ones. Real Batana oil has a burnt or roasted coffee smell. The fake Batana oils smell sickeningly sweet of coffee and is not a real scent. Some are selling palm kernel oil as Batana oil as well.

    Got mine today. There is only one ingredient batana oil(Elaeis Oleifera kernel Oil) and county of origin: Honduras. It did pass melting test, skin test , color is tan, not green but the only thing I'm confused about is smell, for me it smells exactly as raw coconut oil not coffee at all. So i'm confused its real or not. So I decided i'll buy my next one from this website only 😄

    • @KarenofCurlHouse
      @KarenofCurlHouse  2 місяці тому

      Here there! There are 2 main smells to real batana oil. Strong coffee vs a Burnt smell. The burnt smell is from the extraction process. Remember Batana oil is extracted from the nut and the kernels that are left are in the batana. So if its smell like raw coconut - it may or may not as the scent is kinda subjective.

      I just got mine today from them and then found this video. It is brown, it does absorb in the skin, it does smell coffee-ish,(I said coffee-ish because I'm a coffee drinker so it seems only faintly coffee smelling to me) I don't know 🤷🏿‍♀️ it does feel buttery... the only ingredient listed is Batana oil. It's supposed to be from Honduras. The issue I had, though, was they misspelled miracle on the packaging. Maybe I'm just being particular, but that definitely caught my attention. I also caught it, says organic and natural ingredients. Now, because they misspelled "miracle," I thought "OK that could mean they just aren't good with grammar" so are they saying they're using more than one ingredient or are they saying the ingredient we're using is both natural and organic? I dunno but I guess we'll see. 🤷🏿‍♀️

      I got mine today from Azure as well.
      It did pass all the test, but I did notice the writing also.
      Glad I was not the only one to notice since it states that the packaging is from China, but the batana oil is made in the Honduras.
      So I'm almost 100% sure that there is a spelling/ grammar issue.
      I also checked the website to make sure, and if you look at the other products, they do make it clear if there are ingrediants added.
      And so yes, they also state what the ingredients are on the website as well as the packaging.

    When I ordered one, I regret it immediately and sent them a message (not her above here) to try to get money back. I did so before they sent it to me. But they did not listen, and now I got it in my mail today.
    I felt it was fake because it was sent from china, but I did this test on this video on it just to see.
    It absorbs, but not at first.
    It melts when I took it in the microwave, but not as well as on your video I feel. It became liquid.
    The box only says Batana oil, and No other ingredients.
    It has a coffee sent, but I think it can easily be added a sent as well.
    The texture is creamy and not like butterish.
    Color is green.
    So I feel it is fake, but I dont know. Will order the real thing when I can.

      Hey there! No, palm oil and batana oil are NOT that same. In a nutshell, palm oil is derived from the fruit of the palm tree found in Asia, Africa and South Africa; and batana oil is derived from the nuts of the American palm tree in regions like Honduras. For haircare, batana oil is primarily used in hair and skin care products. Palm oil is used primarily in cooking and for cosmetic reasons in well. There benefits differ significantly. I suggest this batana oil which is authentic: batanababe.com/?ref=KARENFLOWERS

      @jenniferanimi5040 You are very welcome! I think that's a good age to apply the oil to the hair. Many times the scalp doesn't need oil as it naturally produces sebum, and applying too much oil can disrupt the natural scalp microbiome or ph. So stick to the hair.
