    The Body shop Shea butter has a very pleasant fragrance. It also smooths very nicely on the skin. Even if you use a bit of the product you can feel the difference. It made my skin feel softer after using it after taking a shower, hence I would recommend for after shower or bath applications, as well as throughout the day when you feel your skin is getting uncomfortable. The box is moderately appealing but the brand Body shop itself speaks for its quality, and I would buy this product again.

    I have always loved the products from this store but I have never tried the body butter. I am so SO glad that I got the chance. This is a wonderful product that I will continue to use for as long as they make it. The smell is wonderful. Soft and feminine, but not overpowering like a lot of "pretty smelling" lotions tend to be. It works great on my rough skin. I use it all of the time. I have reallly enjoyed using it a lot! I tell everyone who will listen to give it a try as well.

    I've always been a fan of The Body Shop but I'd never tried their body butters before. I wasn't dissapointed - I love it! It has a very rich texture that's great for my dry skin, especially rough areas like knees and elbows. It left my skin feeling so silky and moisturized. I know others have mentioned they didn't like the smell and found it masculine, but i didn't find that at all. I really liked the scent; it was a little musky but pleasant. Also, a little goes a long way, so while it may seem pricey at first glance, it will last for a very long time.

    I'd definitely recommend this to anyone and will be buying it again!

    I was really excited to try this product for a couple reasons: I love Body Shop products, and I love shea butter! I often use pure shea butter on my hair and skin, so I wanted to see how a more "manufactured" shea body butter would work.

    I was pleasantly surprised!

    The smell is delicious (to me anyways), and I really liked the consistency of the butter. In the winter, my skin gets extremely dry, so the richness of the shea body butter was perfect. I can even use a small amount mixed with some aloe vera gel on my face as a moisturizer. It made my skin feel VERY soft and smooth, and left me with a nice sheen. Rough areas like my knees, elbows, and heels are baby soft after using this right out of the shower. My skin seemed to drink it up, and I find that the moisture lasts all day.

    The packaging and look of the product were great - very clean and "natural", without a lot of muss and fuss to it. I would hopefully purchase it again as long as it was in my budget - but I think during the winter months, I'd be pretty inclined to purchase it because it works so well.

    All in all, I'm very satisfied with the Shea Body Butter, and I've already been recommending it to family and friends.

    I really enjoyed receiving this product. It comes in a nice packaging much different than the typical jar or bottle. Instead it comes in a cardboard circle. I felt this is worth mentioning b/c packaging has a major effect on whether consumers buy the product. This one is definitely eye catching. With that being said, the actual product is great. It smells great and really moisturizes your skin. The consistency of the product is just right, not watered down yet not too thick. It does not have that oily feel in your skin either. It leaves you feeling refreshed and clean. Great for the winter when your skin is dry. Shea butter really helps.

    I looove all of the Body Shop's Body Butters, but Shea is the first one I ever tried.

    My skin gets very dry all year round so I love how rich the body butter is. Love the scent. I do find that it takes a bit of rubbing for the product to absorb into my skin, so usually I'll put it on my legs right after my shower and just let it sit for a bit. I stopped using this on my arms as I find it too rich, but its great for the dry skin on my legs.

    My only real complaint with the Body Butter is the price. $20 seems a bit steep. I usually only buy body butter when the Body Shop has some sort of promotion going or I ask for some as a gift.

    I have not tried the Shea Body Butter from the Body Shop but I am a huge fan of the body butter in general. I am one who struggles with dry skin and I love how soft and smooth my skin is after I use body butter. I am a huge fan of the Coconut or Mango during the summer months and am currently using the cranberry one for more of the winter. I also have a small papaya body butter container at work for just my hands, I am not the hugest fan of that scent but it does soften up my hands!

    I received this product as a part of the review club (thank you!!). I love the quality of the body butter. It is so thick and luxurious, it moisturizes so well, especially in the winter. I am pregnant right now and my skin has been so itchy, the shea body butter really helps relieve the itch. I find it keeps my skin hydrated all day long. I don't love the scent of this product. I find it quite masculine, but the benefits of it outweigh my dislike for the scent. I will most likely buy another body butter from the Body Shop, but in a different scent.

    I received the Body Shop Body Shea Body Butter from Chick Advisor (thanks!). I first noticed the smell and how good it was! I like the fact that the smell stays for a while - not just fade. I dont particularly like the consistency of the body butter as it is very thick, however, when you apply the body butter it rubs in quite nicely and a little goes a long way. I like how this is not overly greasy and leaves your skin feeling so silky! I find that you can apply this every other day as it really gives your skin moisture that it holds on to. After using this product for a week I notice a huge difference in the way my skin feels - and I dont have anymore dry skin!

    I would absolutely recommend this product to someone who suffers from dry skin and I will definately be buying more once I run out.

    Thanks again, Chick Advisor!
