I wish more products would bold chunky packaging like this as it’s so easy to see what the product is and which category it comes under (Botanicals is for mature skin), plus it’s easily recycled. This Zuzka Natural Beauty body butter (£24.99 for 250ml) containing organic cocoa and shea butter is incredibly rich and little bit goes a long way. Skin feels a little tacky afterward but not greasy and even the driest skin stays moisturised all day, so I’m going to be using this on my hands twice daily.

The Rosa Canina scent is absolutely beautiful – so delicate and feminine. It lasts for around an hour on the skin but is subtle enough not to clash with other products or perfumes. It actually reminds me of a scent from my childhood, which is really comforting and nostalgic :0)

This item was gifted to me for review purposes. This does not effect my opinion of the product.

    My skin overall is quite dry so this would be lovely to have! I like taking long baths then slathering myself with body butter.

      All body butters should be pretty colours, or have a colour relating to their scent me thinks :o)

    I’ve never heard of Zuzka natural beauty products, I’ll have to key and eye out for them. £25 seems far too much money for me to spend on a product but if I had super sensitive skin I’d likely pay that. It does seem like you get loads of product for your money.

      It’s a genuinely big tub and the cream goes such a long way. Plus it’s very natural and my skin didn’t freak out even after waxing.

      I’d like to try some of Zuzka’s Derma Care range as that’s for redness prone skin. I think their Botanicals range will really suit me in maybe 10 years time.

      I saw it on a bloggers website (can’t actually remember which one) where you can pitch brands to review products and I immediately went for this brand as their skin care is really natural and intelligent.

    Never heard of this brand before, but I’m going to be shallow and say, “it’s actually pink in colour!” Haha… I don’t use body butter at all, but having the scent lingering for up to 1 hr does sound pretty nice.

      Me to with the weather here in the UK. The Botanicals range is good for mature skin (I’m only in my early 30’s) so I’m hoping my hands will end up looking a few years younger by the time that big tub is finished ;0)
