Great for dry sensitive skin and especially those winter months. I love the smell of it!

Though I found the shea butter to be somewhat effective on my winter weather battered legs, I have to say it tended to be a little greasier than I would've expected. It didn't seem to fully absorb into my moisture thirsty thighs and therefore I felt like it was doing more to the inside of my pant legs than to my skin.
I have to admit that I usually like Body Shop products so am wondering if this particular container was just a one-time experience. However, with the cost of this item as compared to other available ones, I'm not sure I want to spend the money again if it is going to have the same effect.

I'm always on the lookout for good moisturizing creams and body butters. This is definitely one of the 'good' ones. It has a pleasant smell, moisturizes without being overly thick. I'd definitely recommend this to my friends.

Love this stuff - the fragrance is a bit strong and you have to wait for it to soak in for a while, but everything is so soft and smooth afterwards it's totally worth it. Even works on my feet after a day walking around in sandals!

as far as quality and effectiveness goes I really liked this product. I love body butters and how they make me feel. This one made me feel silky and smoothe I like that. I do not care for the scent!!! it doesnt smell like what I want to smelll like all day uh uh.
So no I will not buy this one again

I love love love this body butter. It makes my skin sooooo soft. I put it on when I get out of the shower and I can't stop feeling how smooth i am!

I tried the Body Shop's Shea Body Butter and I thought it was a good product. I enjoyed the smell of it, as it was not too overpowering, and it really did help my dry legs. I did, however, find the product to be quite greasy, which is something I don't like in a body lotion, but the product did last a long time.

The product retails for approximately $20 at The Body Shop, and personally I think that this price is in line with other Body Shop products, but is too much for this product itself. I wouldn't buy this product for myself in the future, as the benefits of the product do not add up to enough to warrant the price. I would however recommend the product to others who prefer Body Shop products.

I received this as a part of the product review club and loved it. I have used other body shop products before, but never this one.

This cream has a very rich texture which is perfect for dry spots such as elbows, knees and hands during the cold and dry winter months. It is not too greasy either which is always a plus. The fragrance is gentle so it won't clash with any other perfumes or products. I noticed a difference in my chapped hands after about 5 days of using this at night.

Overall I would recommend this product. It's a great gift for a friend , or for yourself!

I received Body Shop's Shea Body Butter through the product review club. I had never used it before but a few of my friends had and were very jealous when it showed up on my doorstep. I've used it a couple times and was quite impressed. The scent was nice and stayed on my skin throughout the day. It absorbed well, no goopy residue left behind on my skin. I would definately recommend it to people with extremely dry skin as it really did do wonders to reduce the nasty ichy feeling my skin gets at this time of year.

I haven't been to the body shop for a few years but this may sway me back out of the drug store and into the speciality shop once again. Thanks product review club!

Thanks to winter, my skin has become dry and flakey, but not just on my legs and hands, but also my abdomen. When I heard that the review club was looking for reviewers for The Body Shop Shea Butter I got pretty excited. Well here's what I have concluded:

What I liked: The smell is warm and yummy, and it moisturizes fairly well, especially if you apply right after shaving your legs. It temporarily gives a smooth, soft feeling to the skin, but this brings me to what I didn't like.

What I didn't like: This shea butter isn't a very good long-term effects product. I'm sure if I applied it several times a day for a few weeks my skin would improve, but honestly, I barely have time to apply it once or twice a few times a week.

Other than that, I did enjoy this product. Sure, this body butter really did feel like butter or frozen cream, but it worked fairly well, and that's all that matter right? I would recommend this to anyone looking for a quick fix for dry skin.
