- The GG's Opinion: First of all- the ingredients are absolutely amazing and work wonders for really dry skin, especially in the winter! It's quick, easy to apply and really seals in the moisture! I really only put this to the top of my hands unless I'm desperate, and it soaks in pretty fast. I love that it doesn't wash off like regular lotions... so no need to apply a million times a day- which can be soooo annoying this time of year and can also save you lots of $! It's not ridiculously greasy or waxy like you would imagine. It's great to carry on the go and the packaging is very practical. It will never spill unless maybe in the dead of summer and it melts... yikes! Ahhh, how the scent makes me miss you summer... Plus, it multi-taskes! In case of an emergency you can use it to tame frizzy hair. How FAB, right? I've used it on split-ends plenty of times... ummm... can you say life-saver? LOL. I also must mention- that my boyfriend had shoulder surgery recently and had super-dry skin on his hand from loss of circulation and being in a crazy sling/ brace for the past 2-3 weeks. We used the Raspberry-Lemonade Salt Scrub and the Coconut & Lime Lotion Stick on his hand- and I cannot believe how fast it's healed... this product is incredible! Needless to say, he also wanted to try my Raspberry Vanilla Body Butta. Hmmm... I think I just got robbed!! LOL. So... I see my evil plan is working... puah-ahh-ahh! This is someone who said he would never use anything natural- because he thinks it doesn't work. Now, if I catch him stealing my Pit Putty- we are soooo broken-up! Just kidding. That's just gross. Anyway... as always, I heart Bubble and Bee's signature graphics and snazzy sayings on their labels. I will definitely purchase it again- if I ever finish this one :) "Rude Raspberry"- you're next!
