Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I wasn't sure that I would like this product, but thought I'd give it try with winter coming up and the fact that my skin suffers from the often dry weather and hard well water that we have already, even on a normal basis. I also really liked the Lemon Cuticle Cream, so I thought I'd give some other products a shot. In the end, I absolute love it!
Most lotions and creams don't work well on my skin to help alleviate the dryness, much less touch the dermatitis issues that sometimes crop up. What has worked only lasts for a short while before I have to reapply it again. In all honesty, between being lazy and getting fed up with not seeing results, I started to slack on moisturizing as I should've been and my skin paid the price.
However, this body butter is fabulous! I have only had it for a little over a week, but noticed that my skin feels extremely soft and moisturized - not to mention looks healthy again. What's even better is the fact that I only have to apply it once a day, despite everything that I have to compete against. That's right - once a day. Party!
It took a little getting used to how it felt somewhat sticky/waxy within the first half hour of applying it, but I hardly notice it now. I did start applying it directly after I get out of the shower and quickly towel off though, which may have something to do with it. The waxy or sticky feeling is short-lived either way, and I love how it locks in moisture throughout the day. The smell is very subtle and not bad at all, which I'm pretty picky about. I think those who enjoy this, smell and otherwise, will probably appreciate the lotion as well to some degree, which is similar and not so perfumey.
I also use it during the day on my poor, thoroughly-abused feet, which are starting to see drastic improvements already due to this product and a few treatments of the Burt's Coconut Foot Cream that I also have fallen in love with. A few nights out of the week, before I go to bed and after I've showered or soaked my feet, I put the foot cream on first, followed by the body butter, which is more to get rid of the dry, sticking feeling of the foot cream and tends to cool my feet off. I slap on a pair of socks, go to bed and wake up with dry yet moisturized, baby-soft feet that smell delicious. Love it! My feet stay moisturized all day long, no flakes or needing to reapply anything.
I've also had this dry, dark and scaly patch of skin on my forearm, which I think was from a soap I was allergic to at my mother's house. Though the initial reaction went away, I couldn't get rid of the dark spot. With the help of my Clarisonic and this body butter, the patch is already gone and has been staying away so far. I can hardly see anything left and I couldn't be more thrilled. It also works extremely well on dry elbows, too.
Really recommend this product, regardless if you have skin issues or not. It applies very easily, has a cooling effect and works great in general. Although I can see the jar lasting for quite some time, I just recently ordered a new one today, just so that I know I won't run out any time soon. Frankly, I think this blows CeraVu and Eucerin out of the water, which kind of worked but certainly not this well.
Look forward to trying other Burt products!
Update: It's now April of the following year and I ordered yet another jar of this due to our cold, dry weather again. I still love this stuff! I did order a separate Burt's to use on my hands, since I type all day and need something that absorbs quickly and is easier to travel with. I found and use Burt's Bees Body Lotion, Cocoa And Cupuacu Butters, 6-Ounce (Pack of 2), which is light, absorbs fast and is cheap. I think it'll make a great lotion for hot summers, but this body butter will be at the top of my arsenal list otherwise.
