Product Review - Alba Cocoa Butter

I was able to get this item on sale at CVS (of course) and was glad to have tried it.

At first when I smelled it - I wasn't too thrilled. It has a very heavy cocoa butter and tropical scent. After I started using it, I got used to it. It doesn't linger strongly after applying - which is good if you are using perfumes/other scents.

This is a very thick and creamy lotion. But what is great is that it rubs into the skin very nice and smooth. It's not greasy, leaves a nice sheen on the skin and does the job of moisturizing the whole body. Its also long lasting, so no mid-day dryness.

At this stage in my life (over 40) my skin basically stays dry. So I have been experimenting with skin care products. My feeling on a lot of lotions is that they offer a lot of smell and little in the moisturizing department.

This product is great for someone with dry/normal skin. It's also hypo-allergenic and I would definitely recommend for the whole family.

Alba did get my attention with this product and I do look forward to trying more of their products.

soft and beautiful's body lotion

i received a sample of soft and beautiful's new product. its a 24 hour body lotion. it contains those key ingredients - cocoa butter, shea butter and almond butter.

this is a great body lotion. i would even have to agree that for my REALLY dry skin it did its job. it also has a light creamy feel with a great light scent to enhance not overload.

usually when i use lotion by time i remove my clothing in the evening - my skin is looking dry.

this time - not so. my skin felt soft and looked moisturized. this lotion isnt thick but does the job without being greasy.

i highly recommend this item and look forward to trying out the rest of this new product line.
