I love The Body Shop body butters and I am on a mission to try all of them one day. This one I found on a 50% sale so I was very happy. It smells quite fruity and fresh and has a light purple colour to it.
This butter is definitely for dry skin. I found it too rich for summer but perfect to quench winter dry skin. The texture was quite thick but still got absorbed well. It is very hydrating
The only thing I didn't like about it was the smell of it on the body. It smells fine in the tub but once you start rubbing it in, it develops a very sharp note that I didn't like very much. Not sure if it reacts with the skin or the fragrance just fully comes out when rubbing (so perfumes do the same). I personally found the aroma too strong for my liking and won't repurchase this variety again.
