Talk about the crème de le crème — this rich body butter is made with 24-karat colloidal gold to help stimulate cell renewal. Precious metals aside, it softens our skin with a blend of plant oils and the lush, mousse-like texture is a dream.
At first try, I love the luxurious feeling of this Supreme Creme. So much so that I was excited to give this to my hairdresser and as hostess gifts during the holidays. Although it is a thicker cream/butter - the consistency is smooth and the shimmer is wonderful, not gritty. I got oohs and aahs and wonderful thank you notes from recipients - thank you Birchbox!
4I really wanted to like this product. I do like the smell; however, the product is really heavy and a bit gritty. I'm not sure if there was something wrong with the sample I got since other reviewers are raving about how smooth the product is, but mine felt like it had a bit of fine sand in it. I also don't mind heavy lotions--they have their purpose--but I don't see the point of a winter-heavy lotion with shimmer. It just seems like an odd combination of features and I was ultimately pretty disappointed.
2This stuff smells just awful. Maybe I got an old one, but I couldn't stand the overwhelming smell, like something my grandma would wear. Definitely not for me. Good thing BB offers free shipping because this went straight back. Don't know if it leaves a shimmer because I couldn't bring myself to put it on my skin.
