I LOVE this butter. It is so rich and soothing... and smells like chocolate to boot. Interestingly, it does not at all feel greasy on the skin- it acutally has a dry feel to it. It kind of...

I got a sample of this with one of my order. I really like it. I love the smell a lot, it smells like natural cocoa to me, however I understand why some people don't like it. It's really a hit or...

Amazing stuff! I've been mostly using this body butter on my feet, and it feels amazingly moisturizing. It can be used anywhere on the body. I love the faint chocolatey scent that comes from the...

Hmm, as I read other reviewers' comments, I see that Paula has repackaged this product in a tube now. This originally came in a jar and it is indeed very thick. I have to scrape it out with a...

I love this product for my feet and hands--mostly before bed, as it is an emollient cream (thick). I *love* the subtle chocolatey smell that comes from the cocoa butter. Unlike everyone else in the...

I bought this for my two babies who have eczema and for about a week I used it for their whole bodies after their bath. It has a light cocoa smell which isn't unpleasant at all. The butter needs to...

I tried a sample of this in my last order from Paula's Choice. I have mixed feelings about this product. My hands get really dry in the winter, and so I'm looking for a lotion I can use at that...

This truly is for dry to extra dry skin. I absolutely love it for my feet and hands, I expect that the dry skin I get in the winter will love it too. The scent took a bit of getting used to, but...

As much as I can't stand Paula Begoun anymore, and as much as it pains me to admit this, this is one of the VERY few Paula's Choice products I like. It actually absorbs! Yet at the same time,...

This is one of the few Paula's Choice items that I like. Lightly scented of cocoa butter, this butter sinks into my skin and dries down with no oily feel. I use it on my hands and arms at night...

One word: Yuck! To be more specific, this felt as if I had spread wax on my skin that simply would not sink in. Really not to my liking.

I LOVE this body butter! I use it on my feet, hands and elbows. It also works as a great cuticle cream. IMO, it is way to thick for the rest of my body but my feet are super dry, scaly and...

The idea of smelling like chocolate, and the reality of it are two different things, I've discovered. Didn't much care for the scent. Also, I would have to disagree with Paula's...

At first, I admit, I wasn't all that thrilled. It does smell like chocolate--like the 65% pure cocoa bittersweet chocolate---so it took me a while to get used to, but now I love it. The texture...

This product is odd. Has the thickness of butter but rubs on your skin like elmer's paste. Once rubbed in it does make your skin soft. It smells like oats to me.
