A little over $3 for this massive bottle. Love it! I use it every day on my legs and it leaves them smooth and supple. I love the smell of mango and it’s not overly sweet or strong either. Such a bargain with this body lotion and the brand has a good reputation for skincare so you have nothing to lose in investing your cash on this product :>


The only complaint I can that some people might bring up is that it’s not a pump so you have you actually flip the whole bottle over to get some product out. It’s a bit heavy I guess. I don’t mind but for those who do – just buy a plastic lotion bottle from target and fill ‘er up with this stuff for easier application :>

I have been in love with this lotion for years. I adore the subtle fruity-cocoa scent and the fact that this moisturizes without sitting on top of your skin. It's perfect for whole-body moisturizing right after I get out of the shower. I apply it when my skin is slightly damp and it makes it SOO soft.

This used to be carried at my local WalMart, but now I can only find the regular cocoa butter lotion there. Just a forewarning for those of you who are thinking about purchasing this online (where you can't smell before buying): I found what I thought was a really great deal and stocked up several bottles...after going through two of the five I bought, I found that two of the bottles went rancid. The lotion looked fine but smelled NASTY! I had to throw them out. Luckily I've found that Sally Beauty Supply carries the Mango/Cocoa Butter lotion, so I can always find them there.

Give this a try, you won't be sorry...

I so love this and use it as a hand cream primarily. Great scent but not overbearing. Perfect for the tough-to-please hands as it moisturizes them well, yet sinks in with no bothersome after-feel. This works as well as any high-priced cream I've used in the past (hello L'Occitane, $28 a tube!) :)
So many pluses beyond that it works: I get it at Family Dollar for less than $2. It's good for the economy as it's made in the US! Their products/ingredients are not tested on animals!!

The smell is sort of gross but works good on dry hands. Not greasy and absorbs quickly.

A decent product, and I'll use the tube I have up, but it's really nothing astounding.

First of all, I like the scent of this mango version more than regular cocoa butter; it's lighter and less "fakey." I found the lotion itself slightly greasy, and I really had to rub it to get it to soak in to my skin.

In terms of moisturization, this product is just "okay." I have super-dry skin in the winter, and it barely makes a dent in it. It's nice as a post-shower lotion in the summer, however, thanks to its light moisturization and its scent.

On the upside, I really like the bottle with the little flip-top, which generally prevents me from pouring too much out, and you can't argue with $3 for 16 oz.

Add me to the lovers of this lotion. You get a ridiculous amount for the price and it often goes on sale, In fact, there's a $1 off coupon in the Sally's mailer right now. It makes my skin feel really soft and the moisture lasts better than most body lotions. It absorbs quickly and doesn't leave a residue no matter how much you use. I mean, this lotion does just about anything you need a lotion to do and it doesn't have much of a smell. I'm definitely replacing it when it runs out. I've had mine for a couple of months and use it every time I get out of the shower and there still some left.

This lotion moisturized well and is non-greasy. Although the scent is a little strong for me, it's still a great buy.

I LOVE this lotion, seriously, I can not stop sniffing myself. It smells amazing, is dirt cheap for a HUGE quantity, and is very moisturizing. Literally the first cold day of the season, my skin gets overly dry, cracked, and my hands host a little eczema city. The first time I used this lotion my skin was very moisturized all over, but what surprised me the most was my hands - they're pretty much healed... and almost NOTHING works on my hands in the winter. Deffinitly great stuff, will repurchase.

I grabbed this accidentally thinking it was my favorite Queen Helene Cocoa butter lotion, but I am a fan of this one too. The scent is great, it's a fruity cocoa scent that reminds me of a chocolate covered gummy bear. As with all of the Queen Helene lotions I have used, this is very moisturizing, absorbs quickly, lasts all day, and leaves my skin super soft.

OK, I'll keep it short, sweet and to the point. $3.99 for 32 oz. (1 quart) (144 ml). Smells good, moisturizes really well. The only problem is the cap can make you squirt too much out, you might want to unscrew it and just pour some in your hand. The first two ingredients are Water and Mineral Oil but the ingredient list is one of the shorter ones I've seen on moisturizer and the Cocoa Butter and Mango appear somewhere in the middle of the ingredient list. You really cannot beat the price for this HUGE azz bottle. Should last me quite a long time and I do plan to re-purchase. Leaves skin nice and smooth and the scent does not interfere with other perfumes and such.

I have to say i was very impressed by this lotion. It is super cheap (at Sally's it was $3.99), and u get alot. The smell reminds me of bbw temptations iced tea 3 in 1 body lotion (which i love! and is discontinued=( ). anyway, u can't go wrong with this lotion. It moisturizes beautifully.

this product is dirt cheap and does the job! and it lasts such a long time.
i use the coco butter one, i like the smell because its light and doesnt linger, or clash when i wan2 use a perfume or anything.
its thin so it is perfect for the summer when you dont wan2 feel like you've got a layer of gunk on you.

I was os happy when I finally found this for $1.99 in a Jembro store. It's so nice and creamy and really leaves my skin smooth and not feeling greasy or slimy. I do feel like I use a lot, but I can't complain since it's so cheap.

I love this! I really liked Palmer's Cocoa Butter Formula for how it softened my skin, but I was growing a bit tired of the scent. This lotion seems to be just as effective, but the scent is tart & fruity with just a hint of cocoa butter. I thought I might get tired of this too, but so far I'm just loving it! Cheaper than Palmers and a you get a lot more product too! This has become a summer staple for me.

I was a major fan of the original Cocoa Butter lotion...until I found the Mango & Cocoa Butter version! It smells like mango/peach yogurt - a little tart, a little creamy, and good enough to eat. Other than wanting to eat it, which I haven't done, I've found that the Mango & Cocoa Butter version is thicker, more emollient, and more moisturizing, which is perfect for the winter months when your skin needs a bit more umph. The original Cocoa Butter version is much lighter and thus more suitable for the summer time. Both versions are non-sticky and absorb very quickly. I've been using the Mango & Cocoa Butter version as a hand lotion right before going to sleep each night and waking up with soft hands. At just $2 for a ginormous 1 quart bottle, how can you go wrong with it?

I am glad I saw this review on MUA. For the price Mango Coco Buter Lotion is better than many expensive brands out there. More plus, the portion is very very generous. Moisturizing is wonderful to the touch and the senses. What more can I ask for? My pocket won't get burned either. Thanks ladies on MUA for my discovery of this hidden treasure!

The scent is delicious, very unique. A mix of warm cocoa and sweet, tangy mango. It moisturizes well without being greasy, it's cheap, and you get a whole quart of it! The only problem I have is that the scent doesn't last. Another reviewer mentioned that she liked that quality about it... but since it smells so nice and goes well with my perfume, I wish it would stick around longer. Oh, and I wonder about the Mango & Shea version...
