Tried for the 1st time and love it!!
Date:April 27, 2013
I've used the foot and hand butter but thought I'd like something a little lighter for my legs and arms in the warm weather...this is perfect, not too heavy and smells great as well.

Spa Wisdom Africa Shea Butter & Sesame Body Balm
Date:April 24, 2013
This is an AWESOME product! This was my first winter in Virginia and my skin was extremely dry. I had tried several other products and even layering products to try to resolve the problem but nothing worked. At the time The Body Shop had this product on back order. When it arrived I used it the same day and loved it!! I ordered three more containers immediately. It has no scent really so can be used with any fragrance without distorting it. The combination of shea butter and sesame oils just seems to do the trick. Highly recommend this product!

wonderful product
Date:February 26, 2013
I take a water aerobics class twice a week and now that it's winter the chlorine was wrecking my skin. One application and within minutes my skin softened and the itching faded not long after. It's a little pricey but it's worth every penny!

Wonderful Balm!
Date:February 26, 2013
I started using this balm, along with the salt scrub, after getting a recommendation from my sister. I am absolutely satisfied that I tried this. It keeps my skin feeling very soft, without feeling greasy. That's a plus to me. I will definitely continue to use this product.

Smooth skin at last
Date:January 29, 2013
I have dry skin and this little pot of cream is great. Its non-greasy feeling makes it easy to smooth on and I don't feel like I have to wipe it off my hands after. Works equally well on hands and feet. Especially good after smoothing rough heals. I have used it at night on my heals both with and without socks and it soaks in to the skin not into the sheets. A bit expensive if you don't buy this line on sale but it's worth the price.

Outstanding moisture
Date:December 10, 2012
My skin is extremely dry and lotion is generally a joke....I have spent a mint on lotions that are ineffective and thin. This is neither. Nice consistency, quick absorption and great scent make this a winner. This formula does not leave you feeling greasy as body butters sometimes do.
I threw my other lotions out!

So soft!
Date:December 9, 2012
This is now my go to cream. I have two skin issues that have led me to try this. One, is no matter how many hand creams I have tried, I still get really dry crackly skin on my fingertips. Two, I have had an extreme weight loss over the last year and have been trying different products to help my over 40 skin keep up. This balm does both and very well. I use this all over. It is a bit pricey, but wait for the sales and they make it worth it.

Great for Every Day Use
Date:September 30, 2012
The fragrance is earthy, yet not as earthy and strong as the Hemp smell. The texture is between a lotion and a body butter, very creamy. The container even though a bit irritating to open and close especially with cream on the hands, looks more high end then the usual body butter containers. The scent is a bit hard to describe, definately earthy. Because this fragrance is not as strong as some products, it could be used for every day use. I hope Body Shop makes more of these Body Balms in different fragrances. I like it so much better then the lotions and body butters.

Great light scent
Date:September 14, 2012
I like this butter because it is light enough to wear when its warm and it lasts a long time. The scent is more subtle than the shea whip, but similar. Good all around lotion.

The Spa Wisdom™ Africa Shea & Sesame Body Butter
Date:June 18, 2012
I am really happy with this purchase. I love how it's thicker than a lotion but it doesn't feel greasy on skin and absorbs quickly. I really like how it smells too. I will definitely buy it again!

Spa Wisdom™ Africa Shea Butter & Sesame Body Balm
Date:May 20, 2012
This is a wonderful moisturizer for my skin. I use it every day after I shower. It is very effective, indulgent, and the fragrance is very nice. My skin always feels so good after I use this. This has been one of my favorite body creams for years. I may try something different, but I keep coming back. Great product, great product line.

Love this product! It's expensive so I use it only for special occasions. Very moisturizing leaves my skin feeling soft and silky smooth all day long but not greasy. Has a lovely light fragrance. I'm very sensitive to smell and most scented lotions make me nauseous but I love the way this smells on my skin!

Bought 5 of these on sale online without trying or smelling it first. It's lighter than body butters but moisturizing as well, great buy!

Works Magic
Date:May 3, 2012
I grew up by the ocean and have years of sun exposure from time spent on the water. I have dry skin and had a skin tag on my chest. Since using Spa Wsdom Africa Shea Butter & Sesame Body Balm the skin tag softened and then fell off! This body balm is not heavy or greasy and makes my skin feel wonderful. For me, it has worked lie magic and I just ordered two more jars so I never run out.

Love it!
Date:April 11, 2012
I have used lots of body lotions but this one is by far the best. It is pricy but well worth to stock up when it is on sale.

Works Magic
Date:April 3, 2012
Living in southwestern Idaho is very drying for my skin. Spa Wisdom Body Balm is a little pot of magic. It's so light and moist, never greasy. My skin says ahh! I do admit I take advantage of sales, as it's a bit pricey. Thank you Body Shop!

LOVE this lotion!
Date:April 3, 2012
This is by far my favorite lotion. It absorbs right into my skin and doesn't make me feel greasy. It is a great moisturizer and has a light scent. I don't like strong scented products and this has a similar smell to the sesame body butter. It doesn't linger all day.

Best Lotion Ever
Date:March 30, 2012
The Spa Wisdom Africa Body Balm is the best lotion ever. I first tried it at an At-Home party and have been addicted ever since. The lotion goes on smooth and creamy. The scent is rich and earthy. I can't live without this stuff.They also make a heavier lotion for the feet but you get fewer ounces for the same price.
