My absolutely one of favorites when it comes to lotions and stuff.
First, it smells very nice. Strawberry, but not the one you can find in Escada limited edition perfumes (imo they have 'rotten' strawberry feeling to me), it smells of strawberry jam.
Strawberry scent is long lasting and I love to use it when I decide to wear Angel perfume.
Further- it really moisturizes, not giving 'moisturized effect' due to mineral oils. After water it contains shea nut oil and silicone. Cyclomethicones evaporate quickly after helping to carry oils into the top layer of epidermis. That's how it is. Of course not all ingredients are perfect, but I'm very pleased with this one. It's very thick and sometimes it doesn't get fully absorbed by skin.
I noticed that applying this butter on my lips was better than any lip balm or stuff like that- often they just dried my lips even worser.

I love this body butter, it smells flirty fresh and feminine. The packaging is awesome because you don't end up wasting any of the product. It moisturizes well and absorbs easily into the skin. The strawberry sent is not over powering. I gave it 4 lippies becasue it is a little pricey.

I can't decide whether I would purchase this again or not. I love the smell, it is my favourite out of all the TBS body butters, besides Moringa. But I just find all body butters an absolute chore to apply because they are so thick. And the texture of the TBS body butters are weird, when you first stick your hands in your fingers just glide over the cream without even making a dent in it, like the reviewer below mentioned. It really does feel like butter.

One of those products I've had sitting around for a while and have slowly fallen out of love with. I bought it initially because of the smell but now I honestly find it sickening. Very fake, sickly, plastic and strawberry. Moisturising? It's not even that great. No long term effects here, I always feel like I need to reapply it after half an hour or so. Never again.

I love body butter. It smells like sweet, sun-kissed wild strawberries to me, as opposed to regular strawberries. It smells delicious and like...well, summer. The butter is a bit sticky when first applied but that quickly goes away. It's nicely moisturizing. I definitely recommend it. I carry a small tub of it in my purse and use it as a hand cream.
EDIT: After using this body butter as a hand cream for few months, I am now a bit sick of the scent. It's too strong. I'd be a great gift for a teenager that is into fruity scents, however.

After reading so many reviews, we either say it smells fake and gives you a headache or that its extremely heavenly! Well I must side with the TBS strawberry body butter lovers club! I absolutely cant get over this one, my husband thinks it smells like bubblegum (I think he means candy haha) Its really moisturizing and makes my skin glow. I use this right after I hop out of the shower and I dont use perfume when I use this because the scent is already strong. It is more on the expensive side but I can understand why its so worth it. I bought a large tub of this when I was overseas cause its much more cheaper. Wish I bought two! My other favourite is coconut. I must say, TBS really know how to make body butters smell divine!

I got a small jar of this together with a purchase. It smelled like sour milk mixed with strawberry jam, really gross. But it did make my skin super soft.

I LOVE TBS body butters. They're the best imo! I have used several lotions, creams, and body butters from other brands - high-end and drugstore ones - and I keep returning to TBS. Nothing moisturizes my skin as well as TBS body butters (for me). I recently got the Strawberry one as a GWP and was quite hesitant to try it because I'm not a huge fan of strawberries, but to my surprise, I am hooked! It smells like i'm in a field of strawberries and it's truly heavenly. I want to purchase the full size jar!

A little bit of this product goes a long way. I'd only use a dab of this on my hands - it's very moisturising, and if I use too much the smell will be overpowering. My dad hates the smell if I use too much - he compares it to Strawberry Jam. A nice product but not worth repurchasing - I got the large tub and it has so far lasted me well over a year.
