Lemon & Vitamin E Bath and Body Oil

Let me preface this by saying I got this in a little mini-sampler kit EONS ago. As in early high school, so a long time ago. I hadn't really used the kit at all, only here and there, mostly because the products had an all-natural oily feel, and I couldn't get past the texture. When I joined BL, I made it my quest to really give these babies a shot- even if that meant slathering the balms and salves on, before bed. In the past couple of months I started using the samples more than I ever did- but there are plenty more to go. I chucked the ones I rarely use in my MU rejects basket (which I delve into from time to time) and if I STILL can't get past the texture and they're not doing that much for me, I'll gift them or throw them away. I say throw away, only because I've had them for SO LONG, and they are not chock full of preservatives. I honestly don't mind using the samples when they're off though- I can't tell the difference, at least now.

I've tried using this for my dry scalp when I had dreads (which didn't really work), and I found it nice to add to some warm water and let my hands/feet have a soak before I do my nails. This smells very lemony and would be a great aromatherapy oil or something to add to a hot bath (I have yet to try that). I'm a body oil noob, so this is a nice introduction to body oils. Adding it sparingly to the skin helps it absorb. Don't add too much or it will take forever to absorb and you will feel a little messy and wet. Because its an oil be careful to not drop it if the container gets greasy on the outside- I lost a lot of product that way. This might make for a nice foot moisturizer come to think of it, plus many other uses. At this point, I just want to use it up and get it outta my way and I'm not sure I would repurchase a full size, as I have a mini kit size.

I'm not too fond of bath oils for me because too much oil for me can be a bad thing but using this post-shower actually does my body really well. It's actually soothing and the scent is too! I feel its really good for stretch marks, after 2 weeks i seen my stretch marks diminish little by little. The price is pretty okay because it is Burt's Bees but i would buy it occasionally.

I love this product... as a pre-lotion treatment, in my bath, in my hair... it's such a delicious, clean scent. The oil is light and doesn't leave you feeling sticky after it absorbs.
