I was just going to buy sister some bits from there as its all on offer. Is it the bum butter that's supposed to be really good for us?

Yes that is the one. No it's not that great (IMHO). It's fine, but nothing to get all excited about.

No it's nothing special.

lighthousekeeping · 31/08/2012 19:06

There was me thinking it would be great as they don't have Waitrose. Might as well go to boots then.

It's lovely for baby's bums! Did nothing for me.

Smells edible. Nice but not astonishing. My second baby unexpectedly shed her skin when she was a few days old & slathering her in it made me feel like I was helping somehow when she was all peely.

Works brilliantly on my horrible 'winter face'. Can't use it in the summer as its too heavy, but it's great as a nightcream in the winter. It has a Vaseline like consistency.

Disclaimer - I bought it for DS eczema but it was no good and I didn't want to waste it.

The baby coconut oil is absolutely lovely - lighter than the bottom cream. In a solid pot

lairymum99 · 31/08/2012 22:03

I like them both - the coconut oil is good as a massage/body oil and smells divine. Is solid in the pot but goes liquid as soon as it touches skin. Yum

I use the bottom cream as a hand cream, or at night. I like the fact it's all organic and natural and smells lovely.

3 for 2 offer on at the moment, so you get 3 pots for about a fiver. Cant be bad :)

it's too greasy for me
smelt naice though

cybbo · 31/08/2012 22:33

It's rubbish

Apparently rose hip oil is where's it's at at the moment

Once I've finished my clarins oil I'm getting me some of that

RikersBeard · 01/09/2012 07:45

I found it a bit greasy, but I like the soils massage oil, and I LOVE the body butter in a tube. Is really nice as a night cream and has sorted DS2's eczema better than anything from Dr . Think it's got lots of coco butter in it

RikersBeard · 01/09/2012 07:45

Solid massage oil obviously

jaffacake2 · 01/09/2012 07:47

My feet love it Smile

KenDoddsDadsDog · 01/09/2012 07:49

It's fab for baby skin but haven't tried it on me!

YingTongIddleIPo · 01/09/2012 07:57

I wouldn't put Vaseline on my face - this is essentially what it is. It smells lovely & is great for hands & cuticles though.

PerryCombover · 01/09/2012 08:29

nah it's tosh

MrsMangoBiscuit · 01/09/2012 08:40

I used it for DD, worked brilliantly. I used it for me when I managed to rub the inside of my legs raw. I couldn't stand anything touching them, slapped a lot of that on and the next morning they were fine. They looked red, but the skin was fine and most of all, no pain! I'd never thought to use it on my face though. Confused
