Advantages: Tastes and smell ok

Disadvantages: Does not moisturise and leaves a waxy residue on the skin

I am a massive fan of Urban decay and have had a fair few pina coladas in my time, so when i saw this product i bought it immediately. What a huge disappointment!!
When using this lotion, i found it extremely difficult to get any amount from the container onto my skin. The balm is very set into the pot and is not like a cream or butter but instead resembles a wax. Once applied to the skin, it did not melt as expected and instead just sat on the surface forming a waxy lining. After several minutes, it did disolve into the skin however despite the product description, my body did not feel silky and did not feel moisturised. As a result, I had to use another body butter later on as my skin felt so dry.

On a more positive note, the packaging is great and the body balm does smell and taste ok. If you are looking for a novelty to interest your partner, this may just be it. However, if you are looking for a great body butter opt for the Body Shop version and you'll smell great and have fabulous soft skin.

Summary: Good packaging but bad product
