    I have used this when I was pregnant and it did an OK job. I don't think I would buy this again since there are much better product out there than this one.

    I love the smell of this product, as its not too overpowering and doesnt interfere with my perfume I wear! I find that this body butter is very moisturizing though I wish that it would absorb a little quicker. I also find that the body butters are a little pricey for the size of the jar you get.

    I usually like The Body Shop. They have some good scents and products and most of everything is fairly cute. This body butter is extremely moisturizing and doesn't have much a scent (which freaked me out because The Body Shop is a super smelly place!). It feels good on the skin but it's made with a lot of chemicals and I only like to sacrifice myself to chemicals if the product is effing AMAZING or smells fabulous. I just don't get that umph from this product. Sorry Body Shop-- would not purchase this it's too expensive and messy! (got it as a gift awhile ago).

    This is great during the winter; a little rich in the hotter months. When I can remember to carry it around, it's the best go-to for the hands after all that washing we have to do these days. The best part for me is the lack of scent, in fact. Mmmm, butter....

    I have not stepped foot into a Body Shop in the last 5 years, despite working across from one - it just didn't really appeal to me from the outside, but I think now I have to change my mind.
    I was pleasantly surprised to see that I was chosen to be a reviewer (Thanks!) for the Product Review Club especially since it's the time of year when my skin is in its worst shape.

    First off, the smell was pleasant - kind of hard to describe but definitely not overpowering and it dissipated after it was absorbed into the skin which I like alot. I also found that it was not greasy at all, which I assumed it would be considering its called a body 'butter'. Fast absorbing, it wins points for convenience in application and its pretty big so its not too convenient for travel - although I think it might come in a smaller size?
    Personally I have extremely dry skin that easily gets exacerbated by the weather, so although I think this would be great for normal skin, it wasn't quite as moisturizing as I had hoped for. It helped to keep my skin moisturized in areas that weren't overly dry and my skin was not sticky after application. I might use this more in the summer, but for Canadian winters, I'm still going to need something a little more moisturizing.

    Thank you to the body shop for sending me this product.

    I would like to say that while I would not use this product in the future, it is more because of the form it comes in than the product itself.

    I have extremely dry skin, and I did find that it made my body feel very silky. It's odour is not unpleasant at all either. However, I much. much prefer a pump bottle than a container that I have to use my fingers to get it out. I just find it much easier with a squeeze or a pump.

    So, as I said while I wouldn't personally buy it again, I would recommend it to others that were looking to try something new

    I have used this product many times. It works very well and not very greasy. However, it is WAY over priced and obviously not very affordable. The smell is also mediocre and it is a calming smell. I had a small container of it but not sure if I would buy it again. The body butters at the Body Shop last FOREVER as you only use a little at a time. So on second thought, maybe it is worth the $20 as the container will last you a year or more in my case. The men in my family use it too.
