Sandy E –
I highly recommend this body butter. It’s one of the best moisturizers that I’ve found for dry skin. I’ve noticed that my hands aren’t chapped and dry, my fingertips haven’t been splitting, and the skin on my arms and legs has not been itching because of dryness. This body butter actually melts in your hands and feels very silky when applied. It is not at all messy to use. It absorbs well and does not leave my skin feeling greasy. The scent is stronger at first and then quickly mellows to a fresh, lightly woodsy scent that I find pleasing.
