Review of Andalou Naturals Kukui Cocoa Body Butter

I have a confession to make. About 10 years ago I was a body butter addict. A regular at the Body Shop, I was always bringing home the little round tubs full of yummy moisturization. Since my early 20s, I haven't really used body butter. No real reason, just got out of habit. I heard some good reviews about Andalou Naturals Kukui Cocoa Body Butter and decided to give it a shot if for no reason but to bring my Vitacost order high enough for free shipping.

The retail price is $14 but you can find it on Vitacost for about $10. It's a much better deal than the Body Shop because you get more product for about half the price. I really like the packaging too. It claims to use fruit stem cell science for healthier skin. The smell is really lovely, kind of like coffee and almonds. The texture is wonderful. I remember some of the body butters I used to use were really thick and pasty. This body butter is creamy and easy to apply. It absorbs well and leaves your skin feeling very moisturized and soft and I really like the smell. The only complaint I have is that it's difficult to get the product out without getting it under your nails. That's such a measly complaint it's barely worth mentioning. The body butter is also available in Lavender Shea and Passion Fruit. Personally I think I'll stick with the Kukui Cocoa scent. I definitely plan on repurchasing this when I run out. Andalou Naturals is a Leaping Bunny approved company and their products are 100% vegetarian. This product does contain beeswax.
