Customer Feedback: "...After starting to use this product, my dry skin became smoother...." "...Not greasy, no fake scent, just smooth young lookiing skin for hours...." "...This is NOT fragrance free, and it STINKS!!!! The smell was so bad it actually made my stomach turn...." --Actual user comments from Amazon.com User Reviews section "...This is a great natural moisturizer that really soothes dry skin. I have to disagree with other reviews, I didn't find the smell to be unpleasant. It is fragrance free, which means it's not going to have a pretty smell....." "...has an odd smell that takes away from it's effectiveness as a moisturizer...." --Actual user comments from Drugstore.com User Reviews section "...my skin is more soft and glowing the it ever has been, so if you want something that works i suggest giving this one a try!..." "...I have tried every kind of lotion for my dry skin and none have worked as well as this...." "...The consistency is rubbery and so is the smell...." --Actual user comments from BurtsBees.com User Reviews section Average Price: $9 (+ shipping) Where To Buy: www.drugstore.com www.amazon.com www.buy.com Our Final Assessment:
Burt's Bees Fragrance-Free Body Lotion with Shea Butter & Vitamin E is a mixed bag. It gets about a 60% approval rating from customers, even on the manufacturer's site. Many people complained about the smell, and a few others had an allergic reaction. It is a 99% natural product, and gets a 4 from the EWG safety database, which is on the borderline of what we like to use. The price is average for a natural product in a container of this size. Based on these factors and the lackluster customer reviews, we give this item a 6.5 rating overall. |
