I had this years ago and really loved it. My friend bought it for me a few months ago, and all I can say is it is definitely not the same formulation.
First and foremost, they have added bucketloads of perfume to this. It always had such a light, natural shea butter scent, and now it has tons of added fragrance. I thought maybe I could get away with just putting this on my feet, but the scent lingered on my hands even after washing them TWICE. It made me feel physically ill.
Secondly, the actual consistency of their body butters has changed. They are just not as thick as they used to be. They have more of a moussey consistency now, rather than being super duper thick like they always were. I used to use them as a foot mask for my dry feet, but the way that they're made now, it's just nowhere near as hydrating.
I really hope they go back to their old formulation. I would definitely use them if they did, but presently I can't recommend them.
Love all Body Shop products. Takes a little while to absorb into the skin, but once it does it feels hydrated and not greasy at all. Scent is more of an earthy, masculine smell, which I like.
Th body shop is a awesome store for great smelling products. the shea butter smells really good, almost a natural smell. It is not to over powering. Not greasy either
love the smell, not too strong. very rich texture but keep my skin moisturized, especially good for winter. a bit pricey but I usually wait for the sale to stock up. good buy
I used this body butter my whole pregnancy, I have very minimal stretch marks! I use it all over my body, I love it. It makes your skin soft without the oily feeling after wards. It smells amazing, last forever. I also use the shower scrub, using the two together makes such a difference in your skin its unreal. Its the only body butter I use on my skin, its amazing. I often use this as gifts! You also can not get a better price!!! The body shop rocks!!!
I just got this as a gift and have only used it once but decided to review it anyways. i actually love this and it's the only Body Shop item I have. It feels good when I put it on and I will use it sparingly till I can go and buy some more.
I'm on my first tub, not yet a long time user but I like it. It goes on very smooth and blends well with my skin. I don't experience the greasy residue that others have commented on, but I mainly use it on my legs. I wouldn't purchase at full price since The Body Shop regularly has deals on this product. My main complaint is that it seems like it'll be easy to go through a tub.
I usually really enjoy body shop products but this body butter left me feeling less than impressed. The smell is lovely but as soon as I applied it I knew it would never fully blend in to my skin. No matter how much I attempted to rub it in, my skin stayed feeling incredibly greasy.
I can't say I am a fan of this. It leaves you so greasy you don't want to put clothes on and when you do it soaks into the clothes instead of our skin. It is an odd scent as well, a friend that used it asked if it had gone rancid, but I was brand new. I received it as a gift and will not be purchasing it for myself in the future.
I love the consistency of the cream, but it is a little bit on the costly side. I love the diversity of the scents that are offered and my personal favourite is the strawberry one.
