The Body Shop Mango Body Butter > Reviews

Advantages: Helps dry skin
Disadvantages: smell can be overpowering sometimes

...I was pleasantly surprised by the bathroom gift I received- a Body Shop set! Now this was a set of toiletries I didn't mind! I got a lovely orange box, which turned out to be the mango gift set, and amongst all the goodies was the Mango Body Butter for very dry skin. The body butter is a usual product that can be purchased from the Body Shop, and comes in a range of different fruity flavours! The usual Mango Body Butter can be bought on its own ... Read review

Advantages: Gorgeous smell, really soft
Disadvantages: Takes a while to soak in

I bought the Mango Body Butter at a Body Shop party. I'd seen them in the body shop before but never bought one after thinking they seemed a bit overpriced…but we all got a bit carried away buying things, plus it was my friend hosting her first Body Shop party so I wanted her to feel like she'd done well! At the party a strawberry sample of the butter had been passed around. It was far too sweet for my liking, but I really liked the texture and ... Read review

Advantages: Smells gorgeous, leaves skin soft and smooth
Disadvantages: A bit expensive for some

...made me try it in the 1st place. Well after a bit of a browse in the body shop and purchasing some gift sets for birthday presents I was given a free sample to try, I loved it so much I was back at the body shop the following week, buying a tub of it. The packaging and price Mango body butter comes in a yellowy orange round tub, with a screw top lid. The label on the lit has a picture of sliced mangos, a very neat and tidy packaging I find. ...

Advantages: Smells lovely
Disadvantages: Average product, quite expensive

...another of my purchases from The Body Shop party I went to a few weeks ago. If you have read my Africa Spa Rich Cocoa Body Balm review you will note that I have already written a snippet about the history and never one to repeat myself (who am I kidding) I will not be going down that street in this review. I purchased this item at the said party because everyone present, including The Body Shop representative (obviously) was singing the praises ... Read review

Advantages: Smells gorgeous, moisturises well
Disadvantages: pricey

...a lot on toiletries so the fact that I paid what I did for this product is a testament to how good I think it is. I bought my pot of Mango Body Butter from the Body Shop for £10 for 200g. This is quite a big pot so the price isn't really that bad considering how far it goes but I could probably have bought a similar sized tub of say Nivea for about half the price. I was first attracted to this product by the smell. It is called Mango Body Butter ... Read review

Advantages: Smells gorgeous
Disadvantages: The price keeps rising

...now. I'm hopelessly addicted to The Body Shop's Mango Body Butter and there's nothing any doctor can do. I have no idea when I first found this lovely product but the smell of it is devine. As you may well know, smell is the most powerful of all the senses - and once you have attached a certain memory to that smell it re-lives that memory on demand. My one complaint is the change of formula in the last year. I used to buy a clear version in ... Read review

Advantages: Smells great, absorbs easily
Disadvantages: Is nice-smelling but is not quite mango

...am a big fan of the Body Butter range but have always limited myself to the Shea or Cocoa Butter Body Butter. A friend gave me the Mango Body Butter and I love it. I wished I discovered it earlier in the summer as the Shea and Cocoa Butter ones can feel a little too heavy on a hot summer's day. Looking at the sunnier side of things, this very summery-smelling body butter could very well be summer in a tub. All you have to do is lift the lid and ... Read review

Advantages: Moisturises dry skin.
Disadvantages: Smell is a bit too overpowering.

...myself. This time it has been the turn of the Body Shop Mango Body Butter. The 200ml tub is £10 and is yellow. This may seem expensive but the tub is huge and a little goes a long way! The Body Shop do a wide range of Body Butters: Cranberry, Candied Citrus, Coconut, Grapeseed, Hemp, Passion Fruit, Cocoa Butter, Nut, Papaya, Sesame, She, Olive, Blueberry and Mango. The Body Butter in question, Mango has a very very strong smell of yes, you ... Read review

Advantages: Intensly moisturising, smells scumptious
Disadvantages: 10 whole squid

...with a screw lid, and the colour of the pot is orangy just like mango flesh. I have to say I do like the packaging, it's bright and functional - easy scoop access - and the picture on the top of fresh mango is just enticing. THE PRODUCT The first things that hit you when you open the pot is a) the smell - a gorgeous aroma of mangos which is fantastic if you really like fruity smells. Not sythetic in the least b) the look - looks like lurpack ... Read review

Advantages: Smells delicious, very good moisturiser
Disadvantages: Can be expensive

...requires a lot of moisturising. The range of body butters from The Body Shop are very good quality. They are quite expensive, retailing at £12.00 for a tub containing 200g, but they can often be found at a reduced price in the sale, usually half the normal price. The mango body butter has a delicious fruity tropical fragrance, and really seems to smell of fresh mangos, and is great for the summer or to take on holiday. The body butters are available ...

Advantages: Smoothes the roughest skin
Disadvantages: None

...spoil your woman, this is the gift to buy. My hubby bought it for me as a Valentine's gift. I have really rough skin on my hands, heels and elbows. I've tried a lot of things on the market and they don't moisturise nearly as well as the body butter. I put it on after a shower and it moisturises instantly. It doesn't irritate my eczema either, which is a first. I'm also eight months pregnant, so as the mums know, stretchmarks are more or less inevitable. ... Read review

Advantages: Super cream easily absorbed smells great fantastic!
Disadvantages: None

...am delighted to write about the Body Shop mango body butter. I have had my tub for quite some time and although I had used it a few times after my bath, there have been two times when this moisture rich body butter has come into its own. The first time was when my son appeared to have eczema on the back of his knees, and not wanting to go to the doctors and have him pumped full of drugs I decided to put some moisturizer on his knees myself. I put ... Read review
