Disadvantages: Some People Have Got Bad Allergic Reactions From This.

Ive just finished of my bottle of this product so I thought Id finally get round to reviewing it.
I only got to try out this product by chance. My mom who had saw it advertised decided to buy it for herself but she had a pretty serious allergic reaction to it so she gave it to me to try out and see if I would have the same reaction [nice isn't she?!]. Anyway Ive been using my one bottle of this for around 3 months now and I apply it once a week and I haven't had a reaction as yet so it's going well for me so far.

Why Do I Use It?:
I fake tan a lot so having soft skin is really important to me because the softer my skin is the less likely my tan is to streak so that is my personal reason for applying this oil. It's proper use is to nourish and moisturise very dry skin, kind of like baby oil and it is said to sink deep into your skin leaving it looking and best of all feeling smooth.

How To Apply:
Now this is a really thick, oily product so dont apply it if your getting ready to go out because no matter how much you rub it in it will not absorb into your skin quickly at all.
I usually apply a really generous amount of this oil before I go to bed and leave it to sink in over night with the hope that I will wake up with really fresh, smooth skin in the morning.

I do use a LOT of this per time because I like covering every inch of my skin before fake tanning the next day but I do recommend wearing gloves because the consistency of this so-called "gel" can be really horrible on bare hands.

The Results:
Dont let the immediate results put you off because it does make your skin look really greasy but bide your time and wait for it to sink in.

The next day my skin looks really glowing. And not only does it look amazing but it feels like baby soft and it smells pretty amazing too. Honestly I cant think of a bad thing to say about this product even though the other two reviews on it gave it a proper slating.

I would recommend doing a skin test on your hand before you apply this all over yourself because a lot of people have had some pretty serious reactions when using this.

The Smell:
Vaseline claim that this is meant to smell like Cocoa Butter but I dont think it does at all. It smells like vanilla but its not overpowering at all and that smell lingers on your skin for ages afterwards which I liked. If you dont like vanilla though then this smell will be vile for you.

Price:
I think this costs around £4 for a 200ml bottle which trust me is a lot bigger than it sounds.
Its widely available in supermarkets and chemists and I think its brilliant value for money.

Overall Opinion:
I cant recommend this highly enough because it really delivered great results for me personally. It made my skin look, smell and feel fabulous and it gives a great base for my fake tan. I cant see where this product is going wrong to be honest. Give it a try, although I will say again do a skin test first :)
