Advantages: Smells great

Disadvantages: quite expensive

The body shop is my favourite place for body products and so I have bought many products from here. One of the ones I love Is the satsuma body butter.

This can only be found in the body shop as it is exclusive to them however equivalents can be found in shops such as Lush and Boots as well as supermarkets own! In my opinion though none live up to the Body Shop version.
The product can be found alongside all the other butters including flavours such as strawberry, olive, tangerine, passion fruit and pink grapefruit. They can also be bought in packages with other body butters, or packages with various products in the satsuma flavour.

The butter comes in a lovely orange tub. The particular one I have is 50ml however it does come in smaller tubs, or larger tubs. The one I bought was £4.85. I find this is quite expensive for a body butter of this size however the quality is so good so it makes up for it definitely.

The pot is very attractive. On the front is a sticker with the product information on it. Obviously there is the body shop logo as well as what the product actually is. There is also lovely looking pictures of orange. There are segements of the orange, as well as pictures as the full orange in its skin. However they don't look tasty or tempting, but instead resemble a piece of beauty, something you'd want to rub all over your skin. I found this really special and intrueging.

It is easy to open the pot as you simply have to unscrew the lid. You are then met by the butter. It is not a bright orange as the packaging would suggest but instead it is a creamy white colour with a slight yellow tinge to it. It looks smooth and fills up about 3 quarters of the pot, or maybe slightly less. Often the butter is all to one side but this just depends on how it has been sitting.

The smell of this is gorgeous. It smells very fruity and resembles Satsuma amazingly. It actually smells like you are sniffing the fruit itself there in the flesh. It is a strong, almost sharp smell but has a nice sweetness to it too! Gorgeous fragrance

It is easy to apply to the skin and rubs in really well. It makes your skin very smooth but this only lasts for a few hours. The smell makes you appear very fruity too! One of my friends actually told me at school, "wow you smell of orange..did you eat one at break". this was a compliment to me and actually showed how much the product had worked.

Overall this is one of my favourite fragrances and I'd definitely recommend it!!!
