I bought this completely by accident - I'd been using a coconut mini, and misread it as cocoa butter - so when I went to the store to get a full sized one I mistakenly bought this.
This body butter works extremely well. It goes on indulgently smooth and absorbs easily. My skin is nice and soft after using it.
About the smell - it smells great, like actual chocolate, not the nasty fake stuff I've smelled on some people. But personally I can't stand smelling like chocolate - I don't know what it is about bakery-type scents (vanilla is another one I can't do), they just aren't for me - they smell great I just don't want them on my body. I'll use up the container because it's a great moisturizer but won't buy it again. If you like them though this really is a lovely scent and I'd recommend it if it suits your taste in scents!

The first body butter I ever tried, and it turned me into an addict! Very effective for dry skin and absorbs easily. Smells divine! I happened to buy the coconut body scrub at the same time and was pleasantly surprised to find the two scents go really well together.

Infused with pomegranate oil, our rich Pomegranate Night Cream is easily absorbed, leaving the skin hydrated, firmer and plumped. Wrinkles appear softened and skin feels lifted.

This cream is soooo soothing for my extra-sensitive winter skin. Not at all greasy. I have no idea if it works on my signs of aging or not, but it feels great and I don't look any older so I'm satisfied. I swear I'm more diligent about washing my face at night because I can't wait to use this cream.

Refreshing
Date:March 28, 2014
My facial skin is typically normal-sensitive but in winter it becomes extra sensitive which makes it feel dry. This lotion makes my skin feel like it's been richly moisturized and refreshed - the Vitamin E lotion, by contrast, I need to apply a second time before my skin feels better. It has a nice tingle that refreshes without irritating. At first I found it burned a bit at the top of my cheeks just below the eye area, but once I switched to the pomegranate eye roller this stopped, so it must have been reacting with my old eye cream.
Not sure how effective the SPF is because we are enduring the winter-that-would-not-die, but it isn't greasy at all.
My only gripe is that it's a tiny tube. I would like to see it offered in larger sizes so I don't have to replace it as often.

Refreshing, mild scent, good cleansing. I miss the mild exfoliating graininess of my old cleanser but decided it was worth the sacrifice for a more natural and ethical product. Seems to remove makeup well enough, but I only use make up a couple of times a week so I usually just exfoliate after washing it off anyway. Not sure it's made a difference in my fine lines - they always look pretty much the same to me unless I'm exceptionally tired.

This eye roller is very refreshing and soothing for tired eyes, especially if kept cold. I can't tell if it's made a difference in my fine lines but it definitely has had a noticeable effect on my puffiness-prone upper lids (again, even more effective when chilled). Has to be held at a steep angle to dispense. I use it morning and night and want to buy a second one to carry around with me (no-make up workplace, so I can eye-roll whenever I please without messing up my face!).

Very Effective!
Date:March 28, 2014
Even after the first use I noticed a difference! My overall skin tone seemed much more even when I looked in the mirror and the redness I've been dealing with all winter was lessened. My skin is softer and smoother to the touch. Doesn't irritate my sensitive skin and doesn't feel tight and uncomfortable as it dries. A little goes a long way, even though it says to apply generously I find I really don't need a thick mask of it, just a smooth, thin layer. So easy to stick with because I don't need to set aside time for it like a traditional mud mask - I put it on as soon as I leave the shower and by the time I'm done with my body products it's ready to be washed off. Extremely happy with this purchase.

Pretty much the same review I gave the shampoo - the scent is fantastic, and my hair is nice and soft.
Enriched with real banana puree from Ecuador, this cleansing shampoo is irresistible. Use daily to gently cleanse your hair, leaving you with beautiful results.
I love the scent! My hair is nice and soft, so I'd say it performs well if not exceptionally well. I wish the smell lasted a little longer - it disappears once my hair dries - but it is glorious when I'm in the shower.

Don't Care For It
Date:March 22, 2014
I bought the mini of this hand cream because I was looking for a different scent than the hemp one. Turns out I like the smell even less than the hemp which I've grown used to. I find it almost medicinal.
It also doesn't leave my hands feeling very nice. At first they feel almost sticky, and then once it absorbs my hands don't really feel moisturized and are a little uncomfortable. My hands are very sensitive to anything heavily scented, so if you have the same issue I don't recommend this as it seems to set that off.
The product itself is too runny for my needs, and it often oozes out of the tube even when I don't apply any pressure, wasting it.
I wish TBS would make their hand creams in less overpowering scents. They are not good for scent-free environments or for people who prefer subtlety.
