I've been coveting this body balm ever since it came out, and luckily I was able to swap for some. The only reason I'd never bought for myself was because I thought it was a little pricey, but now that I've got it, I'm so glad it's mine. A little goes a long way (if you use a lot, it'll make you greasy), so it'll last a long time, which makes it worth the $$. It makes my skin satiny soft, and leaves behind a sweet feminine scent. Makes my skin feel and look so lovely, I can't keep my hands off myself - lol! Love, love, love it, will definitely buy it again!

Would I buy again? Yep. Will I ever need to? Not likely! LOL! I love the scent of this, but it's a little bit too greasy for my liking. Even the velvet puff leaves lint on my legs and in the box! I love the box, though, and use this when I really need super-moisture on my legs. It's also a great gift for moms, sisters, etc.!

I received this as a gift... it is very cute, packaged in the tin. I find that I do not reach for this at all and it basically sits as decoration on my bathroom vanity. It has a nice scent. I do not like the little applicator puff that came with it...it is too small and does not seem to get much product on it. When my DH saw me using it he asked if I was waxing myself, as you wax a car...

I must agree with everyone else that I was initially drawn to this product because of the adorable packaging. I love the way it smells although the product itself is a tad bit awkward to apply with the small puff they give you, and I'm not quite so sure it's ment to be a moisturizer for people with dry skin. Kind of reminds me of a really yummy scented block of dry oil. I love how it melts when you rub your fingers on it.

This received raves from my friends but didn't do very much for me at all. It's a pale pinky peach balm in admitedly a cute tin which you apply with a little black velvety applicator. It goes on me with hardly any detectable shimmer although it smells quite pleasant. It would last you a very long time I would think but not really worth the money in my opinion.

I love this stuff. I am deeply tanned, so the glowing sheen is very obvious, yet very natural. However, I don't see how this could possibly work on people with fair and pale skin.

My Bathina is a staple to my summer wardrobe. I use it all over my legs and arms and it moisturizes as well as gives a soft sheen to your skin that makes you look rather toned. The scent is a heavenly light white floral which is not cloying at all.
The packaging is ingenius with the glamorous velvet puff to smooth the balm on your skin. The product has lasted as I used this all last summer every day and didn't even make a dent in the balm. I will definitely repurchase!

I got this and tried it once. While I liked the scent and the softness, I wasn't impressed with the product. Not worth the $26 I bought it for. I returned it the next day.

The only reason to buy this would be for the cute tin, other then that it's just an overpriced novelty item.

I love the smell and the packaging. The slight shimmer it gives your skin is nice too. The biggest problem with this product is that it seems kinda spendy for something with no special ingredients. There are plenty of other products that either do the same thing cheaper or similarly priced ones that have superior formulations.

Cute packaging--But after a while, I'm debating whether the stuff can actually dry out and crack! Better packaging can be thought up of, definitely. I wouldn't have minded a little more shimmer in the product. I love the smell and the softness it adds to my skin. The boyfriend loves it, too! That's always a plus. One problem--Applying it is sometimes challenging with the puff they give you. =\

I love this stuff! The smell is amazing. It sparkles lightly. It makes your skin so soft and beautiful. I used it a lot more in the summer, especially on my legs and shoulders so I can't wait for the really warmer shorts weather to come back.

Cute little tin, cute little puff and a nicely scented balm. It is sort of like wax but you smooth it on with the little puff and it leaves a scent and slight shimmer to my skin. I can't really see it all that well but I have rather pale skin. The scent is like roses. I think I prefer scrented body cream rather than scented body balm. Overall, cute product but nothing I can't live without.

The only thing I can say about this product is that the packaging is very cute.
I was not really impressed with the scent:I didn't find it pleasant and it doesn't smell like roses.
Save your money for something else.

I won this product in a drawing at my local BeneFit counter. I was contemplating purchasing it. I think the price is a little steep. The packaging is a nice very pink tin. I like the shimmer and scent this product leaves on your skin. It isn't really moisturizing, although I am not sure that moisturizing is a goal of this product. It is a nice "pampering" treat for yourself though! The only thing is, the applicator and the consistency reminds me of car wax. Hmmmm.

What can I say? Love it, Love it, Love it! The scent is oh so divine! Been looking for a rose-scented lotion/cream that actually smells good and this is by far the BEST!! Irridescent and creamy, it gives your skin this wonderful glow. Will definitely repurchase, but the price is the only down-side.

EVERY time i use this on my legs, someone always asks me if i have stockings on! It highlights and accentuates the curves on your legs, shoulders and cleavage(think j.lo) without being overly shimmery(i'm not a body glitter fan). it has a soft sophisticated scent and for best "effects", i suggest you use this at night. I have medium toned(nc35) skin and it does wonders for me but it might not show up as much if you've got fairer skin. Looks best with a tan.

I like everything about this! I hesitated to buy it because of the price, but a little goes a long way. I have fair skin, and I thought it gave me just the right amount of sheen without looking sparkly the way some products can. I found the scent to be light enough to layer with almost anything else I might wear.

I bought this simply for the divine retro packaging, and the cute idea. It's not partcularly hygienic, but the velvet applicator is soft and super-luxurious on the skin.

The scent is old-fashioned and floral, and thankfully isn't strong enough to interfere with my fragrance. The balm is moisturising but quite light, and leaves a very subtle shimmer on the skin. When I go out in the evenings, I prefer to use this and then dust Kitten powder all over for more shimmer.

This is a great product (you can use it on your hair to smooth flyaways) but it really should only be used during the summer and preferably with tanned skin. Smells wonderful..leaves a nice sheen on your legs.
