The Body Shop Body Butter

I love the Brazil Nut Body Butter! I really do, so Im glad youve asked for my review! It absorbs quickly and aids in dry skin healing immediately. I like to layer it a few times over the course of an hour or so. I just cant live without it actually. I had tried with failure, alot of different moisturizers on the market over the years, wasting a ton of money on what I would say is basically false advertising of products that are mostly water and wax based, and was given this butter a few years ago by a friend and have been ordering it ever since. It pays for itself with the first use, and is not only excellent for dry hands but legs and well, just about anywhere you want healed, soft real skin again. I use it on my cuticles after manicures and have instant results there too! I totally recommend it to anyone who just cant get their dry skin to heal and be truly soft. Its not to heavy for summer use either, its just perfect.

My husband swears by The Body Shop's line of hemp products to help keep his super super super dry skin under control. This Hemp Body Butter isn't always part of his daily routine, but particularly during the winter months it often is. Like many body butters, this one contains both cocoa and shea butters (which is all Fair Trade). It also has Babassu oil, which I can't claim to know much about, but is supposed to be a good, light, non-pore-clogging moisturizer. The hemp seed oil in this product is what really sets it apart. Like another reviewer noted, the hemp seed oil is really good for helping skin repair itself (either for disease-based problems like psoriasis or environmentally caused damage, like from dry air) and absorb moisture more effectively thanks to its incredibly high concentration of fatty acids.

The only drawback about this product is a subjective one: its scent. Many people don't mind the scent of these hemp creams, but some do. I'm not a huge fan of the smell, which is sort of grassy and herbal but does sometimes have that yeasty smell of stale beer. The good thing is that the strength of the fragrance diminishes rapidly with time. If you're the one using the product, you'll still be able to smell it on yourself, but it's not overpowering for someone sitting next to you. It's a very unisex fragrance regardless, and if you normally use cologne or perfume it would cover the smell of the Body Butter easily.

Overall, I do recommend this product. It's a thick, uber-moisturizer that can help your skin "help itself" if you use it regularly. It would be best for those with dry skin, since oily or normal skin types would probably find it to be too much unless used very infrequently. It is probably one of the better body butters out there for real skin therapy and improvement, going on creamily and soaking in to leave non-greasy, satisfied skin in its wake.

I tired this in the store, and it left my hands feeling silky smooth and smelling nice hours later!! The floral scent is light, not too sweet or overpowering.

I bought this on a whim a year ago and it's still one of my all-time favorite products. I use it daily, and a little goes a long way I'm not even halfway done with the container. Unlike other body butters, this one absorbs fast, and isn't greasy it's just smooth, and has a subtle, fantastic smell. It doesn't smell like olives per se just something faintly perfect.

I love that this body butter is silky light and smooths on easily. I never feel like I'm covered in grease, but just have a nice moisturized feeling. The smell is also pleasant... there is a hint of Olive in it, but it's just a hint... mostly, it's a nice middle of the road fragrance, a bit citrus, a bit floral? I'm not quite sure how to describe it, but I enjoy it and find it relaxing.
