This is a powerhouse body balm. It is luxuriously rich and buttery but also absorbs quickly, leaving skin feeling nourished, soothed, soft, and - for me - calm. If you’re prone to allergies or dry itchy skin, this really helps calm the skin (and results are as much instant as they are long term). Giving it less than 5 stars only because it comes in one fragrance and if that fragrance isn’t your cup of tea, you don’t have options. Some reviewers describe it as honey or chocolate scented - agree. But without those reviews, I might have struggled to identify the fragrance - and while I’m not a huge fan of this fragrance (disappointing particularly since this is one of my top 3 fragrance brands!) the scent dissipates after a while and works well layering with other fragrances. (AKA you can hide the scent if you need to.)
This is a very dense butter like cream. The fragrance is light - like vanilla (?) and lovely. Jo Malone's hand cream is the same fragrance and works well for chapped winter hands.
I’m a huge Jo Malone fan and have several of the Vitamin E body and skincare products. When I developed a skin irritation I decided to give the Vitamin E Body Balm a try. So glad I did. It’s absolutely wonderful. So emollient and soothing. And I love the light kind of sweet fragrance. Not overpowering, just a calming soothing fragrance. Will definitely be purchasing this again. Provided me with much needed relief.
