Avon Skin So Soft Original Bath Oil by Avon, Bath Salt, Oil, Fizzies + Bubbles Review

6.5

This super-moisturizing oil is almost more notorious for its reported multi-purpose features: insect repellent, candle wax, gum remover ... what's not to love? It's basically just mineral oil with fragrance, but it contains BHT, which watchdogs warn has carcinogenic properties, and carrot seed oil, which can irritate sensitive skin. It can also create a dangerous, filmy oil slick in your bathtub. The awkward bottle gets slippery with use, too.

This is a great moisturizer, a little goes a long way. It's also a great price. i'm not very fond of the smell though. — 9 months, 2 weeks ago

Uhhh - Strange Oil
leo1999 (543 reviews)

The scent of this oil was odd but I helped out an Avon distributor by buying it. I see why it's supposedly an insect repellent and it really does smell, look, and feel like something from the sixties. I used it after shaving to moisturize my legs and it worked satisfactorily but after reading the ingredients, I'm dismayed. I won't purchase it again. — 2 years, 10 months ago
