Burt's Bees Richly Replenishing Cocoa & Cupuaçu Butters Body Lotion

I've always had great luck with body moisturizers that contain Cocoa Butter as one of the key ingredients. That's the only thing that takes care of my flaky legs during winter. Sadly, body butters that contain coca butter can get really greasy during summer. Burt's Bees Richly Replenishing Cocoa & Cupuaçu Butters Body Lotion is one of the newer additions to the brand's natural body moisturizers.

I expected it to be quite heavy since it is a blend of rich butters and oils. The lotion is very light and smells more like vanilla than cocoa butter itself. Since the consistency is in between that of a thick body butter and a thin, runny lotion, it spreads easily and absorbs very fast. Because of the weather my skin doesn't get so dry these days and this helps me maintain the perfect moisture balance. I just apply it once after a bath and don't have the need to re-apply for hours!
I love the squeeze tube packaging which in turn means less wastage of product. This body lotion totally lives up to the claims and delivers what's expected of it. If you want something that has a strong fragrance that lingers on for a while, this may not be for you. If you are looking for a non-greasy, not overly fragranced, daily body moisturizer, this may be something you would want to try. Burt's Bees Richly Replenishing Cocoa & Cupuaçu Butters Body Lotion is 99% natural and not tested on animals.

Price : $8 for 6oz/170g.
Availability : All drugstores and online at burtsbees.com
