I recently purchased some Body Shop Mango Body Butter as I have very dry skin and wanted to try something new as other moisturisers don’t seem to effectively combat my dry skin. I have used Body Shop products before and although they are pricey they seem to be rather good. So anyway, I purchased a 50ml tub of Mango Body Butter for very dry skin for £4.
After my morning shower I decided to use the butter and see if it was any good; risking walking around for the whole day with dry skin! The butter seemed to go on very well and left my skin soft, supple and smelling great; I didn’t even have put perfume on! I must admit that the moisture does decrease throughout the day and so does the smell unfortunately, but my skin never got dry and I didn’t have to sneak into the toilet to have to cream my body anytime during the day! I love this cream and I now use it everyday; it has made such a difference and my skin feels so much better now.
The only downside of this product is that it’s on the pricey side. A 200ml tub is £12 and although that seems quite reasonable, I managed to get through one 50ml tub in less than a week so it may not last very long. But I feel that the value for money is pretty good as the product lasts all day and you don’t need to re-apply. I will definitely be buying and using this regularly.
