OK, as you know, I am a sucker for a fabulous, scented body cream or body butter. It not only is an understated way of wearing fragrance, but scented body cream is a great way to moisturize skin. Love!

Sol de Janeiro Delicia Drench Body Butter is a warm and spicy gourmand fragrance slash skin care product. Like the “Bom Dia Bright Cream” travel size body cream found in my travel beauty bag, the Delicia Drench Body Butter goes on smoothly without leaving a streak and instantly moisturizes my skin. Love that!

Since I love using body cream or body butter as an alternative to wearing perfume, I have several on rotation at the same time; just in case you are wondering why I am reviewing so many different body cream brands and scents. I feel like you can’t own just one! Variety is the spice of life. So, if you like a warm and spicy gourmand scent, this may be the body butter for you too.

In addition to be an all-around great body butter, Sol de Janeiro Delicia Drench Body Butter is vegan and cruelty free. Love that!

So, if you are looking for a fragrant body butter, I highly recommend Sol de Janeiro Delicia Drench Body Butter. Ten out of ten stars!

Thanks for stopping by!

Nutrius Brazilian Body Butter review

Raise your hand if you love a good body butter. Mine is way up! I love a good body butter, and these two scents by Nutrius are absolutely fabulous.

I first encountered this duo at Costco while wandering around the aisles. I was surprised to find they smell amazing and are extremely nourishing. Love that!

Since my skin gets very dry during the winter months, this body butter turned out to be a life saver. I only have to apply it once and the scent stays fresh, and my skin stays nourished without drying out again. That is the ultimate flex when it comes to body cream.

While both versions have slightly different ingredients, the only difference I notice is the scent. The fuchsia top has more of a powdery sweet fragrance while the yellow top is beachier; I assume due to the coconut. Both fragrances smell fantastic, and I have found myself addicted! Of course, as with anything at Costco, I can’t find it there anymore. Thankfully these body butters from Nutrius can be found elsewhere on the web.

I hope you enjoy these body butters!

Thanks for stopping by!

XOXO

Scented body cream for summer 2023

‘Tis the season for scents! When warm, summer weather arrives, I love to wear scented body lotion which is subtle, and offers just enough fragrance without being overwhelming. My favorite scents in the summer include coconut, vanilla, and Colleen Rothschild’s Tahitian Monoi; it is absolutely fabulous!

There are two main reasons scented body cream is far superior to just wearing perfume during the warm summer months. The subtle scent is perfect when perspiration happens, and it will happen, plus, body cream helps restore dry skin from summer sun and fun. That’s two birds with one stone! Love that!

My two favorite brands are Colleen Rothschild, and Laura Mercier, but the other brands I am showing you are good too. Colleen Rothschild and Laura Mercier are the ones I reach for the most often. They have beautiful scents plus offer the perfect amount of moisture for my skin. I love being outdoors during the summer months, so a good body cream is essential.
