Body Butter, Body Schmutter!

Yes! The Body Shop's Body Butter is schmuck to me!
That just sounded like a tongue twister, didn't it?

Well, don't get me wrong here... I like everything in The Body Shop but their overpriced and overrated Body Butter!

Mango Body Butter which I bought to salve my cracking arm skin and also to match my shower gel which is a mango and pomegranate fragrance.

The fragrance is fine but when I first smelt it, it smelt more like artificial mangoes than real ones.
I don't like its texture.
I don't like the consistency of the product.
I don't like how it doesn't dry after you slather it on.
It's too thick and greasy... just like BUTTER.

Yeah, I know. Why buy butter when you don't like it?
I like butter!
I just like it better on toast than on my body.

By the way, the improvement on my arms wasn't that great either.

Why spend money on a schmuck (Yes! It's Schmuck!) product like Body Butter when QV Cream does the job more efficiently?

QV Cream as recommended by my dermatologist.
Good, efficient, cheaper but no frills. Hence, no fragrance.

From now on, I shall boycott Body Butter!
(After I have finished my current pot, that is.)
