CHECK THIS OUT: I have always had dry, sensitive skin and have tried all the expensive creams, especially for my face and to prevent premature wrinkling. Guess what? I USE THIS AS A NIGHT TIME EYE TREATMENT, just a gentle stroke of the tub and tapping a thin layer around my eyes. I cannot believe the results. When I awake, my skin is so soft I do not need to remoisturize before makeup. IMO, this works as well as Estee Lauder Perfection CP, for less than 25% of the price.

My only complaint is that the body shop does not release this in an edible version. I drool every time I put it on. I find I only need to use a small amount for satisfactory results. I've had my tub for over six months & it's still going strong. An all around WIN for coconut fans & freaks alike. continued >>

I have mixed feelings about this butter. On the one hand, the smell is absolutely divine. However, personally I don't like the consistency. I find the butter to be more greasy/ oily than I'd like- I prefer my skin lotions or butters to sink straight in, but this leaves my skin feeling a bit oily. Hmm.

I prefer the strawberry body butter which sinks in much better.

I LOVE THIS! I have always been a fan of TBS body butters. They are truly the best and I always come back to them as they cure any skin ailment I have, keep the skin so hydrated and their scent stays all day. I have used the Cocoa butter which is good for any season and cures any skin issues and the Mango which is great for Summer but will not be replaced by this Coconut one. This has the same glorious effect on the skin as the Cocoa butter and the smell is to die for. I rarely add any perfume when I wear this yet get compliments all day (from men and women) on how lovely I smell. I sometimes add a few dabs of the vanilla or coconut perfumes oil which I also love and the smells work really well together. So easy, cheap and great for your skin, why use anything else! I also have the shimmer version which rocks and you can now get in store, as well as a lotion versus.

This BB is definitely a winner for me. It is very thick, but very hydrating. Just bought this over the weekend after reading about it in my Lucky mag. I have this coconut infusion BB from Antigua and have been trying to find something similar ever since. It is the closet one I have found and has that authentic coconut smell. Nothing artificial about it and as many other reviews have mentioned doesn't fade into a weird chemical smell after wearing it for a while. Almost bought the travel size, but decided to go right for the bigger jar. Totally worth it b/c a little goes a long way. If you want something hydrating, tropical scented, and leaves a beautiful shine on your skin this is the answer.

Another hit from TBB body butters!
i adore the scent and the softness it leaves on my legs. In the morning, i cant get over how soft my legs are. LOL.
It is butter-like the first couple time i used it, but it got alot creamier and easier to blend. It spreads like a dream, and my legs just drinks it up!
I love the travel size ones. It lasted me 3 month with everyday use and its only the 50ml one. So i think for those who thought this was too expensive or too oily, use little at a time.
I love this, but am going to try other scents.

I've had this product for over 6 months now, and I have very mixed feelings towards it.
[ PROS ] - soothing natural coconut scent; great consistency (melts when met with friction); very moisturizing; can heal & soothe chapped skin fairly quickly in the winter
[ CONS ] - comes in a tub; rather pricey for the size; eventually caused a reaction to my extremely sensitive skin
I only took off 1 lippie for the fact that my hands eventually had a reaction. If not for that though, I can completely overlook the packaging quality and price, as I truly believe this is a wonderful product (the pros blow the cons out of the water)! If your skin is not extremely sensitive like mine, I would definitely recommend this =) continued >>

I love the smell of coconut, and if you want that real-deal smell, this is it! This is very moisturizing and thicker than a lot of products, can be a little sticky, but that doesn't last long. Will probably buy more eventually!

I purchased this in the 50ml jar because I wasn’t that sure about the scent. All I can say is that next time, I’ll be getting the bigger jar. This stuff really smells like coconut! That being said, it’s also a lot thicker than the other body butters I’ve tried, but then again it is formulated for normal to dry skin. I’d definitely repurchase it and use it in the wintertime. It’s also great just for using on the hands whenever they’re feeling a little dry. It’s definitely a quality product that I would always like to have on stand by. I say this because its not everyday that you find a coconut cream that actually smells like ripe coconuts and not fak-ish. I’m going to purchase the exfoliator next time since I liked the scent so much. 5 lippies!

RAVE! I bought this for use as a fragrance, not a skin softener. TBS Coconut Body Butter is very pretty and pleasant creamy, comforting. Doesn't torque off into something else like so many inexpensive fragrances. A little dab is perfect for that touch of comfortable coconut fragrance. You could turn any fragrance into your own tropical scent by putting a dab of this delicious coconut body butter nearby or elsewhere on the body.
