The
anti-aging hand creme is packed with shea butter, glycerin, coconut oil
and vitamin E. This emollient blend keeps hands hydrated, even after
you finishing washing your hands. The non - greasy, fast - absorbing
creme has a clean scent. It left my hands felt pampered, soft and
smooth. I love applying this creme as feel like a mini-spa treatment
especially after using the Julep Glycolic Hand Scrub. I, at first, love the cap but
after using it for awhile I realized, the product gets stuck on the
cover and it is just messy.

Gud Natural Body Butter Orange Petalooza Blood Orange Flower
Gud
is created by the creators of Burt’s Bees, so it is not formulated with
any parabens, phthalates or petrochemicals. The thick body butter has
shea butter to help alleviate dry skin. This rich and creamy lotion is
very moisturizing but it is a bit greasy. It does absorb quickly and
leaves a scent of blood orange and hyacinth. I personally, didn’t like
the scent very much but I did like how my skin felt after applying the
body butter. I think next time, I will try another one of the other 5
scents available.

L’Occitane Shea Butter Extra Gentle Soap – Milk

I
love this sweet scented soap. The creamy soap gives a generous lather
and leaves skin feeling soft to the touch. It is a treat to use this in
the shower as the scent wafts through the air and leaves a delicate
scent on your skin. The soap is 100% vegetable based and is packed with
wholesome shea butter. You can also feel good while cleansing as the
company works with women operated Shea processing collectives in West
Africa.

Victoria Secrets Pink Vanilla & Shea Butter Body Lotion
I came across this body lotion while canvassing the outlet mall. The creamy body lotion has a nice fresh scent. Even though the scent is vanilla and shea butter, I couldn’t smell any of the vanilla. The non-greasy formula does an average job of keeping my skin moisturized. I used to keep bottle on my desk but it didn’t keep my hands from looking scaly and dry but my hands smelled great. I know why this was 85% off at Victoria Secret.

Keri Shea Butter Conditioning Therapy Lotion
Photo Source - Drugstore |
In the late winter and early summer my skin looks like a scaly
desert. As unpleasant as that sounds it feels more unpleasant. Apart
from the dry scaly appearance, my skin is also itchy and just quite
uncomfortable. I have heard of the moisturizing and hydrating effects of
shea butter and I heard this lotion had ample amounts of shea
butter. The lotion is very thick, greasy and leaves a sticky residue
because of the shea butter. I usually wear it a bit before going bed [I
don’t like wearing lotion after showering] to allow it to fully absorb,
otherwise I would stick to the sheets and everything else, but when I
wake up my skin is soft and renewed. I use this as a weekly treatment
rather than a daily lotion.

Burt’s Bees – Honey & Shea Sugar Scrub
Photo Credit - Burt's Bees |
Since spring is around the corner, I need to whip my ashy
skin into shape [I wish there was something for the muffin top]. One of my favorite ways to exfoliate is using
a sugar scrub. This sweet scented body sugar is packed with almonds and aloe
leaf juice. The finely grated almonds and sugar crystals work in harmony to
slug away dead skin. Although, the scent is honey and shea, I found the honey
scent to be more dominating. I started
using this body sugar mostly because it was on sale and cheap. It did a decent job
though. It left my skin smooth and soft.
I think it would leave my skin softer, if the sugar scrub wasn’t mostly
composed of sugar, halfway through using the scrub the sugar became dry. It
became a pain to rub the dry mixture in.
