The Body Shop Shea Body Butter |
I haven’t tried a great deal of products from The Body Shop yet but I have to say that I’ve loved everything I have tried so far. And this Shea Body Butter is no exception!
This Shea Butter Body Butter has a gorgeous nutty scent that really comes alive when applied to the skin. I actually didn’t know how good Shea Butter smells until I tried this! The consistency is a thick, rich and buttery cream but it’s suprisingly non-greasy. In fact, this absorbs into the skin very well indeed without leaving an oily residue. I love the way that it practically melts into my skin and instantly relieves any dryness.
A little bit of this does go a long way but since I only have the 50 ml size and not the 200 ml tub, I’m rationing this out and only using it where I need it most. It’s great for all the typical really dry places such as knees, elbows and feet but recently I’ve been experiencing a very dry neck (I know, random!) and this body butter has been working a treat at sorting out that awful itchy, flaky dryness.
I’ve also been enjoying using this as a nourishing hand cream and it works extremely well and is small enough to carry around with me in my handbag. This product is said to provide 24 hr moisturisation and I have to say that it’s one of the few products I’ve ever tried that lives up to a claim like that! I’m really impressed with this little beauty and I’m eager to try more of the Body Shop Body Butters in the near future.

I’m super pleased with this little beauty and I would definitely repurchase this again at the right price.
I was always a HUGE fan of Body Shop body butters but over the last 12 months or so whenever I use one I breakout in this awful rash over my stomach! I don't know if they've changed the formula or my skin is just having a moment but it's so frustrating! Body Shop body butters are so thick and lovely, I miss them!

I love the body butters from The Body Shop – I haven't tried this one but the raspberry and coconut ones are both amazing!
