Product Review: The Body Shop Strawberry Body Butter

When entering the Body Shop, my friend was describing to me the wonders the product Body Butter can do for the skin. Almost, immediately my nose caught the scent of the strawberry body butter, and I could not help but purchase a jar for myself. The Strawberry Body Butter has strawberry seed oil in it to moisturize normal skin types. The product comes in two different amounts. You can either purchase one huge container of the product, or you can purchase smaller containers with 50ml to sample the product in case you have any allergies or it's unsuitable for your skin.

The strawberry Body Butter smells deliciously of strawberry that really will make your mouth water. The moment that you open the jar you can definitely smell a strong scent of strawberry already, and when you apply it onto your hands or body, the scent is sure to remain there for a long time. It's a great treat for your nose, and also a wonderful moisturizer for your skin! While strawberry smells delicious, strawberry really is a very common smell, and not hard for a product to have; thus, it's actually not one of the most unique smells out there. After smelling the scent for a long time I must admit that it does smell a bit unreal at times, but other than that, I would say that the Body Butter in Strawberry is a wonderful treat to your nose anyways.

The moisturizer itself is of good quality, and does a great job in keeping your skin moisturized and feeling new and fresh. While the consistency of the body butter does resemble actual butter, when you apply it on your skin, the moisturizer is quickly absorbed into your skin to moisturize it and replenish it from life. The moisturizer is not actually thick although the consistency looks thick, and applies smoothly, and very lightly. While the consistency is thick when you apply the body butter, it actually becomes rather light. It does not leave any trace of oil on your skin, and isn't greasy or sticky at all. A small container will actually last a long time because you only need to swipe your finger at the surface of the body butter, and you'll notice that you have enough product for a large area.

The container and product is beautiful. For one, these body butters come in cute plastic containers that have a picture of the scent on it. It looks really dainty, and the small little sample jar can really be carried everywhere, and even stored in your purse. The body butter is colored according to the jar, and the whole presentation of the product and packaging is very cute and appealing. It actually makes a good present!

This body butter can be a bit pricey compared to some other brands as the full container is already $20 while the smaller containers are $10; however, it is well worth the price because a small amount of the product will actually last you a long time. Also, it's definitely well worth the price when you add in the quality of body butter you get, and the amazing scent that comes along with it.
