Divine Scent
LittleBunny (393 reviews)
The coconut products made by the Body Shop are my absolute favorite. I love coconut, but theirs isn't too sweet, and really just smells like pure coconut. I always wait until Summer is on the way to start using their coconut products, and it always gets me ready for warmer weather. My only complaint is that the body butter is a little greasy, and I wish it absorbed better. — 1 year, 3 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 3 of 3 people said helpful

Not good.
LipglossandSpandex (487 reviews)
I received my 1 .7 oz Strawberry Body Butter as part of a GWP. Labelled as being for NORMAL skin. PROS: Cute container. Okay for normal skin. CONS: Fake strawberry candy smell (a con, IMO, but might be something you love!). Leaves a slightly sticky residue on your hands even after it 'sinks in'! :( The texture also weirds me out a little bit -- the first time I tried to stick my fingers in to try it out, they just slid across the product, leaving a dent but not scooping up any butter! Doesn't seem to moisturize as much as sit on my skin... I was REALLY excited to receive this product FREE, and was sure I was going to love it... but overall, this is not something that I will not be repurchasing and will probably even struggle to use it all (b/c I won't be using it on my hands!) — 2 years, 3 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 7 of 8 people said helpful

Not the best body butter out there.
LipglossandSpandex (487 reviews)
The smell is pleasantly like REAL, fresh blueberries, so it's a more delicate scent (rather than a strong, artificial blueberry smell), and the fragrance does fade in the package if you've had it for awhile. The product does leave a slightly sticky residue feeling after you rub it in, which isn't great (for a butter, I would expect a greasier and less sticky feel). The big tub is really more than I need since I tend to buy/use a lot of different lotions and butters. I don't regret buying it at the time (I think it was on sale or something), and did enjoy using it, but I'm ready to move on to a new product. — 2 years, 3 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 1 of 3 people said helpful

Just OK...
powerwoman033 (509 reviews)
What do I love about The Body Shop Body Butters? The scents. The Body Shop offers the most variety and the scents are usually spot on. What do I not like about them? The jar for one. I find lotions in a tub or jar are messy, hold on to bacteria, and lose some of its potency. The body butters are very moisturizing but do leave a greasy feeling behind, that I did not like. I would stick to body butter tubes. They are not messy, sanitary, and hold their efficacy. Overall, it is OK. — 2 months, 2 weeks agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

YAY!
aly7 (385 reviews)
This is my first body shop purchase, and I am pleasnatly surprised! I must go back for more! The scent is really intoxicating, and it really lasts on your skin! For me, the coconaut scents lingers almost all day Really good and moisturizing, great deal at only $5! I unfortunetly do not have a The Body Shop around me. Their is one in a mall about 45 minutes away, but that's just a little too far. I wish I lived near that mall though! It has a huge Sephora, a MAC counter, a Bare Minerals counter, The Body Shop, a Crabtree and Evelyn, and a Bath and Body Works all under one roof! I also do not have a large Sephora near me- I do have a small one inside my JC Penney. The Sephora's inside JC Penney do not carry all of the brands, and are much smaller. So, my Sephora does not carry the Body Shop products. I was extremely surprised to see this- for only $5! I grabbed it so fast:) The scent is indenetical to a real coconut. It is not the fake coconuty smell of sun tan lotion or anything like that. It smells nice and fresh, and just like an authentic coconut. I actually really like the smell of suntan lotion- but only when I want to smell like suntan lotion. For an everyday, day-to-day scent I don't want to smell like suntan lotion- I want to smell like a real coconut. The feel is nice an buttery smooth- it has an amazing texture! It is not too thick but not really thin either(like a regular run-of-the-mill body lotion). I would still definetly classify it as a body butter, even though it is not the thickest body butter that I've ever used. I think it is the perfect consistensy. When you apply this body butter, it absorbs fast and does NOT leave a greasy, icky feel on your skin. After applying, my skin instantly felt softer and smoother. Plus, it did not leave any kind of greasy residue on my skin in the slightest. The scent actually lasts pretty long and lingers on my skin for most of the day. If you are someon that does not like lingering scents- this is definetly not for you because the scent really leaves your skin smelling like coconut. When the scent starts to die down a bit and you think it is gone, just sniff your skin a little closer and the scent will still be there! The coconut fragrance does fade throughout the day- but at the end of the day it is still lightly there! — 9 months, 1 week agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 2 of 2 people said helpful

Fabulous!
TheLacqueredLady (588 reviews)
These products are fabulous if you can find the right level of moisturizer and the right scent for your skin. They are not too oily and moisturize very well. I recommend trying on a few different scents and walking around for a while before purchasing as the scents can turn or disappear on different people. I personally love the mango and almond body butter. Be aware that the vanilla holiday body butter tastes awful (no, I don't eat the product but I moisturized and then ended up rubbing my lips by accident and the results were horrifying). You get alot of product for your money. I recommend putting unused product in the fridge as it will extend its shelf life. — 10 months, 2 weeks agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

I love the Vit E line!
TBjunkie (678 reviews)
The vitamin E line at the body shop is wonderful. This body butter is incredibly moisturizing, like all their others. But it has a bonus of vitamin E to nourish and repair your skin.

Sorry Mango, you used to be my favorite...
luckybetty (880 reviews)
I used to love using this Mango one in summer because the scent was refreshing and yummy. But I found a even better scent - Satsuma Orange body butter (btw, the Body Shop Satsuma entire line is amazing, and it has the realistic orange scent!). However, for the performance, I agree with another reviewer; I also prefer their Cocoa Butter body butter because the consistency is richer and it lasts longer. The Mango body butter is still nice, but not too special compared to the Satsuma scent. If I had to choose this specific body butter and Boots' body butter, I may pick Boots' because of their lower price. — 2 years, 3 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 1 people said helpful

Aloe Body Butter
leo1999 (560 reviews)
Although this body butter was fragrance-free and user-friendly for those with sensitive skin, I didn't find it special. It was no more effective at moisturizing my skin than some drugstore lotions that are much more reasonably priced. — 1 year, 2 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful
