Comfort Me in Softness....
Review of Clinique Deep Comfort Body Butter by
phoenixgreen
Advantages: Really smooth, non-greasy and easily absorbed...
Disadvantages: But very expensive for what it is. There are cheaper and better alternatives!!!
...to be standing at the Clinique counter in Boots when you get them! I went shopping on Saturday for a present for my friend, and had decidided to buy her some lovely Clinique things as she's just bought a house and is too poor at the moment to treat herself. So there I am, trying in vain to remember the names of the products I know she likes, with the very posh Clinique lady staring open eyed at me like I have my glasses on upside down, as I describe ... ...the same as most other Clinique products - natural and understated and completely chemical free.
The cream itself which is very slightly off-white/cream is very thick and does have the consistency of firm butter, but gladly none of the grease! I've been using it on my hands and tummy, and it disapears into my skin remarkably quickly, with not a hint of oiliness and nothing but smooth, hydrated skin left behind. The small amount I received in a tube ...

My Skin Is Soo Kissable...With The Nutty Butter
Review of Boots Mediterranean Almond Pistachio & Milk Body Butter by
karimkha
Advantages: Gorgeous smell, instant shine and long lasting.
Disadvantages: Can be very addictive.
...(honestly!). As usual, Boots likes to surprise us with new and different products and they had added this new range of products which they called MEDITERRANEAN; they had done the perfect job so far, just by their choice of name !
I saw this new range displayed clearly: firstly, the name attracted my eye, and it was offered with a £1 off voucher; I was curious to have a look and explore what's behind the name!
A CLOSER LOOK . . .
... ... THE BOOTS MEDITERRANEAN RANGE . . .
They have over 35 different products which will all care for your body . . . these start from body lotions, body butters, body scrubs, through to bath creams, and body wash, using very interesting ingredients which sound good enough to eat (such as orange, lemon, honey, almond, pistachio, vanilla and avocado)! I'm going to review one of the best in their range . . . Almond and Pistachio and Milk body butter. ...

Body Shop Mango Body Butter
Review of The Body Shop Mango Body Butter by
yazoo88
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 decided ... ...200ml tub. Packaging
The body butter arrived about a week later. I really liked the packaging, it came in a big orange round pot, with a big picture of a mango on the top of the lid, with the body shop logo on the middle and 'Mango Body Butter' written in white lettering at the top. I was really pleased with how big the pot was, it justified spending £10 on a body lotion! The Body Lotion I opened the pot and absolutely loved the smell. ...

Body butter.. good enough to eat
Review of The Body Shop Range by
lesley007
Advantages: moisturising
Disadvantages: doesn,t last as long as would like
I love the wide range of fragrances available in "Body Shop" body butters. The coconut is absolutly fabulous. One whiff and you are transported to paradise.. memories of beach holidays and happy days. My skin loves it and just soaks up the moisture which this cream just oozes. My only critism is it just doesn't last as long as I would like it to. You really need two tubs if you want it to last the life of the shower gel and body lotion.. perhaps ...
