Thicc Cream

L'Occitane Shea Butter Ultra Rich Body Cream

This cream is undeniably luxurious, with its 25% shea butter formula delivering intense hydration and nourishment to even the driest skin. The texture is rich but absorbs surprisingly well, leaving a velvety finish without feeling greasy. I love the soothing scent of jasmine and ylang-ylang—it's subtle, fresh, and perfect for unwinding after a long day.

That said, at $66, this cream feels more like a splurge than a necessity. While it’s a treat for the skin, I’ve found other creams with a similar concentration of shea butter at a much lower price. If you’re looking for indulgence and a spa-like experience, this is a fantastic option. But if budget is a concern, there are more affordable alternatives that deliver comparable hydration and results.

Would recommend for gifting or occasional use, but not as a go-to daily moisturizer for the price.

On the fence

I wanted to LOVE L’Occitane Body Cream but can only give it a like. It works great, two thumbs up for efficacy. Helps to nourish and moisturize parched, dry skin. Love that it’s vegan. Refillable. So many pluses. But I didn’t enjoy the scent. At all. Very grandmother- ish. I also found washing my hands afterward was necessary as it didn’t absorb into palms and fingertips and left a greasy feeling. Great for legs, arms, body though. Mixed feelings on this one. I received this product #free in exchange for my honest review. Thank you @thisisbutterly and @loccitane for the opportunity. #bodymoisturizer #vegan #dryskin

Strong smell but nice

This thick moisturizing cream has a lovely feeling... it doesnt irritate my skin which is great but the smell is a bit overwhelming.. i would of liked it better if it had no smell or had a lighter smell...

Nice product, just not for my skin type

I recently had the opportunity to try L'Occitane Ultra Rich Body Cream. This product certainly has a lot of potential, especially for those with specific skin needs. The packaging is sleek and practical, offering a luxurious feel while being easy to use. The cream seems like it would be good for individuals with very dry skin or those dealing with eczema, as it provides deep moisture and nourishment.

That being said, this cream wasn't a perfect match for my skin. I found that the formula felt too heavy and greasy for my preference, leaving a residue that didn’t fully absorb. Additionally, the scent didn’t appeal to me. It’s a bit too strong and not quite what I was hoping for.

While I think this cream would be a great choice for those dealing with extremely dry skin, it wasn't the right fit for me. If you have oily skin or prefer lighter, more absorbent textures, you might want to explore other options. However, for anyone needing intense hydration, L'Occitane's Ultra Rich Body Cream could be a solid option to consider.
