SOAP & GLORY // Butter Yourself Body Cream Review


Hands up if you're dying in the Great British heatwave ;) It's not as bad as yesterday but I was pretty much melting in bed last night, even with the fan on full blast!

Today I'm going to review Soap & Glory's relatively new body cream; Butter Yourself. I actually got this free in Boots a couple of months ago but put it aside and forgot about it for a while. Luckily I rediscovered it a few weeks ago and have been using it non stop ever since.


Soap & Glory | Butter Yourself | £10.50 | Buy Here

The best thing about this cream is that it smells absolutely DIVINE [it's so good it has to be capitalised.. guys trust me on this one!] It's got S&G's 'Fruitigo Fragrance' - a very fresh fruity scent with a slight hint of citrus which is also in products like Pulp Friction, Foam Call and Endless Glove. They describe the scent as having 'notes of frozen yuzu, orange oil, green fig and jungle pomelo essence'. Not going to lie.. I have no idea what frozen yuzu is or if it's even a real thing so I can't say if it smells like one or not! [Update: yuzu is a citrus fruit apparently.. who knew?]


You get loads of product in this tub - you only need to use a tiny bit since it's so thick so I can be sure it will last me ages. I've been using it every other day for two weeks and I've still barely made a dent in it. I choose to apply it to damp skin after showers and it leaves my skin so smooth and silky it's unbelievable. I love how it sinks straight in so you don't get that horrible sticky feeling and can get changed straight away without fuss.


Although I love this cream, I'd think twice about buying it again since it costs £10.50, which is a little too pricey for me! I would definitely rather get it as part of a deal again and save my pennies in the process. Luckily at the moment all Soap & Glory products are 3 for 2 at Boots so grab it while you can here.

      I've actually never tried the Breakfast Scrub since I love my Flake Away too much, but it's definitely going on my wish list!

    I'm definitely dying from this heat, it's crazy! I love a bit of Soap and Glory, the Girligo spray is probably my favourite, closely followed by Hand Food. Thanks for commenting on my blog! x

    I am also dying in the heatwave!!!

    I've been wanting to try soap and glory products for ages now, but just haven't, for some strange reason. Anything that smells good is a winner for me though!
