I got this as an early X-Mas gift. The jury is still out on the Coconut body butter. I like the consistency of the butter, but I am not sold on the scent. It's not as long lasting as the other body butters, and it sorta smells like suntan lotion. I may change my opinion, however, right now it's three lippies only...

this product smelt amazing, however it didnt feel comfortable on the skin. it took a long time for the skin to absorb it so your hands feel oily for quite a while. it did a good job of moistuizing the skin especially during the winter. i would recommend applying this product at night so that you wont have to try going about your daily routine with oily hands. overall, an ok product but not for daytime wear.it lasts quite along time too because a little goes a long way!

I have never used any of the Body Shops products, my sister had this and didn't like it or want it so she gave it to me. My skin is already super dry as winter is here so I tried this stuff last night. Holy softness! I was very impressed! Now I know what I will be using to combat winter dryness, I think this will likely be too heavy for summer use, I think one has to be careful with how much they apply. I found that it absorbed well and pretty quickly. Plus the smell was nice and subtle, not too strong. Very nice! I think I would definitely buy this once I run out, must have for those who live in winter tempuratures and deal with dry skin. I use a lot of lotion this time of year, and many just aren't moisturizing enough, but not this. Highly recommended...

Although this is too greasy for my super dry hands, I love it for my even drier feet! I'm in socks pretty much 24/7 so my feet get super dry. I slather this body butter on overnight under a pair of socks and by morning my feet look 10 times better. Not a fake coconut scent either like so many Bath and Body Works scents, it's a faint natural scent.

This smells amazing, is easy to apply, and keeps my skin moisturized for a good 24 hours without feeling greasy. I find it a bit heavy for summer but I love it during the dry winter months. And did I mention that it smells amazing?

I adore the smell of this. It smells so yummy but it does not absorb quickly as I would like. I'm currently using Jergens Ultra Healing lotion and this lotion absorbs very quickly. If it wasn't for the fact that the body butter takes awhile to absorb, I would be hooked. I love the smell but it takes too long to absorb into my skin. I'm too impatient so I would not repurchase this.

I will never be without this, ever!! Coconut is my all time fav for anything I put on my body and this is my fav body butter. I have never used anything that has kept my sensitive, dry skin so hydrated. It amazes me every single time I use it. I can put this on in the morning and go to bed at night, wake up the next day and my skin is still moisturized and happy. :) It has never irritated my skin ever. And the coconut smell is never overwhelming or cheap smelling, it's subtle but lasts all day. It's a little pricey for just a tub of body butter but so totally worth it.

I love this body butter, perfect for summer when parfume can feel quite heavy ^-^
Its a little pricey, but its worth it, Feels nice on my skin but over-applying can make it a little greasy. Leaves my skin moisturized and smooth. I'll totally buy it again!

I bought this (along with the coconut shower gel) as a treat for myself. It smelt so amazing, and actually I wanted to get the smaller tub because the large tub seemed a bit pricey but apparently they don't do this scent in the smaller tub. So I splurged, and I'm happy I did. I apply all-over after a shower and it smells so yummy and soft (not at all greasy) for hours afterwards. I love the design of the twist-top tub, and scooping product out is no problem (fun even). I wish it were a bit cheaper, but I will re-purchase next time I feel like spoiling myself :)

This is great but I think after awhile I do prefer lotions more to butters. But this smells really nice.

I normally buy the olive body butter, but I've been on the hunt for a really good coconut scent. I bought this along with the coconut scrub during the 2 for $30 sale.


The body butter melts right into the skin, and the smell was like coconut milk. It was very easy to apply, and didn't require much effort to spread. My skin was very moisturized and wasn't oily at all. The smell doesn't linger too long, nor is overpowering.


I don't care too much for the packaging, but it is easy to get into and scoop out. The price hurts, but the tub lasts for a good amount of time. I will buy it again, but not until the next sale. ;-)

It's my 3rd box of that stuff I love it. It smells delish and moisturizes perfectly, and there's a ton of product in the packaging.

LOVE this body butter! Adore the smell <3 It's creamy and thick and oh so yummy...:) The only minus side that it's a bit pricey (IMO) for a moisturizer :/

This smells super delicious, I just want to start eating it sometimes. As a moisturizer this does an alright job (please note that my skin is normal to dry though with certain areas being drier than others). I bought the 50 mL size for $8 CAD which wasn't too bad a price, it's not cheap but not expensive either. I like the cute round container it comes in as well, I've already cleaned it out and plan on using it for travel.

I love the body shop products and i love smelling the body butters. My dad bought me the coconut body butter as a gift for when I was in hospital having my baby. I love the smell and the moisturizing effects. However, it is much too thick for my liking, which makes it a chore to apply. I also don't like having to dip my fingers in the jar and I don't like the price. So i took two lippies off and I would not buy this myself.

I am very impressed with The Body Shop body butters. They are extremely moisturizing. I love coconut, therefore this one is one of my favorites. The scent is not overpowering, is very settle and it feels natural. I personally like buying the small body butters and mixing them. I love mixing coconut with mango. I leave each of the body butters in its original container, but when i apply it i will take a little of both and it smells very nice.
The main reason i will repurchase is because of the moisturizing effect. I love the smell as well and that seals the deal :)
Love The Body Shop and have found a new product store love :)

I LOVE this body butter! The smell is absolutely gorgeous, I can't get enough of it. I don't think it smells like the typical manufactured coconut smell, which I absolutely love. It is really, really moisturizing and makes my skin smell delectably delicious and super-soft. It lasts for ages, which I really like as well. I really like using this on my elbows, knees, ankles and feet before I'm fake-tanning to get an even tan.

I will definitely buy this again!

I'm absolutely obsessed with this body butter. I was worried about this smelling too artificial, sweet or cheap but it's amazing. It smells like I've cracked open a coconut and poured it over myself. Absolutely divine. Every time I wear this I get compliments. People can't stop telling me how amazing I smell!

I received this as a birthday present so I can't really comment on the price. I've been using this every night for the past two weeks and I wake up with super soft skin. It smells divine and sometimes I just want to eat it all up! It's a little bit thick for my liking but the effects of this body butter just cancel out that flaw. My sheets smell so good when I wake up I don't want to get up in the morning! Two thumbs up :)
