Scrumptious, Rich Pampering for Skin at a Bargain Price!
Summer or winter, dry, tight, itchy skin is irritating and unattractive. One of the BEST products I have ever used is C. Booth's "Honey Almond Body Butter." It is an ultra-rich, thick cream which comforts immediately and smells like a bakery in a tub (absolutely, positively scrumptious!). This is chock-full of ingredients to deeply nourish and hydrate: among them are mineral oil, glycerin, dim...read moreethicone (a skin protectant and emollient), beeswax, cocoa seed butter, aloe leaf juice, allantoin (an anti-irritant), shea butter, Vitamin E, and wheat germ and grape seed oils. Despite the plethora of softening ingredients, skin soaks it in and it remains non-greasy. Allow a few minutes for it to be completely absorbed before dressing. I would pay four or five times the $6.00 price tag for this! When you're at the beach or pool this summer, let your satin limbs complement your new bathing suit. This is a product you simply can't bypass!This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 2 of 5 people said helpful

Excellent
This body butter is creamy & moisturizing but not overly greasy. It does take a minute or 2 to sink in though. But once it does, my skin feels so good. The scent is pleasant & light.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 4 of 6 people said helpful

Nice on the Surface
This jar of body butter is huge and will probably last forever. At first use it seems to get the job well done, covers up scaly and dry patches on the skin and smells really nice. But I've noticed that it kind of SITS on top of the skin. I've used this a lot as a hand cream and whenever I go to wash my hands, either minutes or hours later, I always get the sensation that I'm washing my hands of th...read moreis stuff that's sitting on top of them. This doesn't really MOISTURIZE, because you have to keep reapplying it over and over. A true hydration product would dissipate into the skin and give you long-term moisturization, meanwhile this just kind of acts like a barrier against air. NOt impressed with the ingredients either - last time I checked parabens, triethanolamine, dimethicone, tetrasodium EDTA and mineral oil are terrible and toxic to the skin. Don't be attracted to the HONEY/ALMOND in the title either - you're better off just mixing some almond oil with raw honey and putting that on top of your skin, with BETTER results!This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 3 of 5 people said helpful
