Editor Review

Rated a 9.5

Oh, those clever Brits. Even your flakiest, driest spots are no match for this moisturizing salve from the U.K. It works everywhere -- lips, elbows, heels. It doesn't leave skin wet or sticky, and it smells absolutely delicious -- sweet and almond-y. The point deduction comes because the pot is unnecessarily clunky and heavy. In our dreams, it would come in a lightweight, flat tin that slips into the pockets of our jeans.

    Boots Mediterranean Olive Sage Almond Wonderbalm

    by grannyhoff (26 reviews)
    I am a diabetic and had very rough heels. My foot doctor prescribed this acid for me to use. I couldn't stand the throught of using it. It was just too much touble. After I discovered this product and used it on my feet, they are softer and smoother than I could every imagine. No more snagged stockings or rough looking... heels when I wear sandals. I really do like this product. The price makes it very affordable. Although I don't ususally like fragrances, this has a very light sage odor. June 1, 2008, 11:12 am

    Mmm... yummy

    by cherrypie (128 reviews)
    Top 100 ReviewerTrusted Review
    Okay, so the description sounds like this stuff would smell like a caesar salad, but not so. Somehow it smells deliciously fresh, rich, and comforting. It is a dream; it moisturizes dry skin (cuticles, knees, heels, elbows, everything!) beautifully and is never heavy or greasy. One gripe? Why the tub? It's kinda gross havin...g to stick your fingers in there to get the product out and it's a bit difficult to spread over larger areas. Overall, A! June 12, 2008, 4:42 pm

    Heavenly

    This is heavensent in the cold, dry winter months. It instantly makes your skin softer and smoother. It absorbs quickly so that your skin doesn't feel greasy. Because only a small amount is necessary, it is quite a bargain. February 18, 2008, 1:18 pm

    Product Review of Boots Mediterranean Olive Sage Almond Wonderbalm

    by girlwomanbeautybrainsblog (233 reviews)
    Top 100 ReviewerTotal Beauty BloggerTrusted Review
    Ironically, I clicked on Total Beauty today to discover the product of the day was Boots Wonderbalm because last night, after applying Retin-A and Olay Regenerist, I applied Wonderbalm to my hands and face. I woke up this morning to a much more hydrated face. I know its not meant specifically for your face, but this produ...ct is pure wonderment. I bought Wonderbalm for my lips, but lo and behold, it's a multi-purpose beauty product. March 12, 2008, 2:33 pm

    Great Moisture for Dry Spots

    by roselady (16 reviews)
    This is a nice moisturizer for those dry spots on your body, such as elbows, knees and hands. I recommend it for after gardening or in fall/winter when skin gets more chapped. It has a nice smell. The texture is a little like vaseline, only stiffer. A little goes a long way. It is small enough to fit in my purse. May 16, 2009, 3:59 pm

    Boots Salve

    by _xXmimiXx_ (10 reviews)
    The product does live up to its claims. Dry spots will be no more, and your skin feels so soft after using it that you may want to run your finger tips all over your super soft elbows. When I lived in Pennsylvania, this product was great for winter dryness, however, in Florida, it's a bit heavy for daily wear. I have to ...use it at night and then wash off in the shower in the morning or I feel really gooey. October 27, 2008, 10:50 am

    A different type of moisturizer

    by teshie (336 reviews)
    Top 100 ReviewerTrusted Review
    When I apply this product to my chronically dry, itchy hands, it goes on greasy but provides instant releif. And after a few minutes it's fully absorbed and it keeps my hands moist for hours. I also use it on places that need a little extra love, like my elbows and knees. It's also great on lips, providing a glossy veneer f...or matte lipsticks while hydrating. Detractors will point out that this is basically just overpriced Vaseline, and I agree. But it smells so good and feels so right that it's worth the extra few bucks. September 26, 2008, 11:27 pm

    A Must For Elbows

    by vhfvhf (142 reviews)
    Top 100 Reviewer
    For some reason, my elbows get so thick skinned, dark and rough. No more now that I have this product. It's not instant but it is returning my elbow skin to normal. And the scent is wonderful! June 22, 2008, 7:19 pm
