Advantages: Best buy for really dry skin

Disadvantages: Pricey compared to what they used to cost

I can't say enough good things about the Body Shop body butter and this one in particular is a firm favourite with me! Like all the body butters this flavour comes in a 200ml size pot. Sometimes in their gift sets, at Christmas and during sales you can be lucky enough to get handy 50ml travel sizes too, which are also great if you just want to try it without spending too much. My only gripe about the body butter range is that they have increased in price so much over the last few years but they often have offers such as buy two for twenty pounds and that sort of thing so it's worth hanging on for a deal or looking on Ebay rather than buying directly instore. This particular body butter contains communit traded shea and cocoa butter which along with the Body Shop ethos mean that they are an ethical product to buy ensuring fair deals for the people supplying the ingredients in other countries. Shea butter and cocoa butter are two of the most remowned moisturisers and this this body butter is testament to that. It's a very thick, rich and creamy moisturiser that is absorbed easily by the skin and smells absolutely divine. It's also recommended for pregnant women as cocoa butter is said to help prevent stretch marks.

Summary: One of my favourite beauty products!
