Butter makes everything better (Julia Child had it right). Well, the same goes for this skin and hair butter from Davines. Not only does it contain organic carthane oil bursting with antioxidants, but it’s also free from parabens, silicones, and artificial colors. Work it into hair for soft, silky, easy-to-control strands. Or slather it onto your face and body for velvety, nourished skin.
This makes for a thick but averagely effective skin cream. It is far too heavy for curly hair, leaving locks limp and weighted down. Some products might make for a good all-in-one, but a skin vs hair product isn't a great candidate for that.
PS--Your hot tool question doesn't allow those of us who don't use any tools to answer that question accurately.
I received a sample of this product in a beauty box. I’m usually a little skeptical of those “use on hair and body” type of products but I’ve tried other products from this brand before and liked them well enough so I thought I’d give it a go. The texture is very thick (most body butters are though I suppose). I didn’t/ won’t try this on my hair because my hair is thin and products like this would weigh it down tremendously. I don’t know if I’d use this on my face either, except maybe in the winter if my skin were extra dry (I think it would feel a bit thick to me - I don’t like heavy feeling products on my face usually). For body use, however, it soaked in pretty well to my skin. Thick butters like this, I tend to use on my elbows and knees for the extra moisture. The scent is pretty heavy and smells like essential oils. I definitely wouldn’t recommend for people who are sensitive to smells. I wouldn’t repurchase this, but I didn’t hate the sample entirely. Some good things about this product are that it’s paraben free, doesn’t have artificial colors, silicon free and no PEG.
3I brought this lotion sample with me on a weekend trip and used the whole thing in one day - I absolutely love the scent of this lotion! It's light and floral and wonderful - I showered with the matching "nectar" and then put this lotion on afterwards, and my friends were complimenting me on how delicious I smelled! The lotion is silky smooth and not too thick, and makes my skin feel so soft. I'm ready to buy the full size!
5I read all the reviews and was just really hoping that the smell would be ok. I’m not picky and I haven’t gotten any products from Birchbox I didn’t love so I gave it a shot and it honestly smells like teenage boys feet!!! I don’t know why u would make a product that smelled like that. I guess I will use it on my feet, I’m a hospice nurse so im on my feet a lot so I guess that’s what it will be used for but I DO NOT RECOMMEND IT.
