It is a nice serum. I don't think it is a psychological effect, but I do feel like my skin is tighter after using this. I have yet to notice any apparent and long term effects but it makes my skin soft to the touch. Even though the bottle doesn't provide directions, I put it on whenever I feel like my skin needs the extra moisture or on days where my skin is in a not so good condition. It is one of the cheapest serums out there, and worth a try when on sale. I don't think I would buy it full price simply because there are no "magical promises"!

I love it!

This is an awesome body scrub. After using it in the shower, it leaves my skin smooth and moisturized (surprisingly!) while getting rid of those nasty dry skin patches on the legs and elbows. The scent is not what i would call cacao, it is better to try it in store before purchasing, but it is by no means a bothering smell, actually, i got used to it, now it smells like cake! (not very like chocolate cake though).

It's nice

It's nice to have. I find that the lotion part goes on super smoothly on the skin and is absorbed almost instantly. Very nice for normal skin types or when you want that extra moisture locked into your skin. The buttery part feels about the same way; it is harder to dig into the product because it is so dense, therefore it requires a little bit of time to melt the butter and what not. I guess that goes the same for all body butters. Then again, I found that it does not moisturize as well as good ol' vaseline. It does keep my elbows smooth until the next morning (if i put it on at night), but by 20/24h, i feel my elbows getting patchy and dry again. Recommended, but not for very dry skins like it says on the packaging. Might have to try richer creams to make the moisture stay all day long! As for the scent, it is not head-on vanilla scent, but it does get more "genuine" a while (10/15min) after i put it on. Overall, nice, but not as moisturizing as some other body butters out there.

it sparkles....!
Date:December 14, 2011
My skin is combination, drier in winter First off, it is rich, moisturizing, if your skin is not extremely dry, this might work as a night cream, 2 in 1, awesome
However... i'm sure this pertains to personal preferences.. but it sparkles due to the micro shimmers in it, i didn't see this feature stated anywhere before purchasing it, and i have to say it is not an effect i enjoy. especially because it gets on the hands, and does not wash off easily. it might give you a glow, i don't know, i don't have the courage to wear it out! Also the scent? I find it funny, but that's really just my personal preferences!
