![]() It does not take much to cover your whole body, so although it is small, the bottle lasts a long time. I do like to put it on my arms and chest before I go out because it leaves a sexy glow on your skin. It takes a bit longer to soak in, so I use it at night. I find that body oil like this provides a deeper moisture level than lotion. It is much less messy than liquid body oil and much more easy to apply. This gel body oil is a bit of a new thing to me, but I do like it more than regular body oil or just lotion. True Vaseline Cocoa Butter Vitalizing Gel Body Oil If you can deal with that, however, this is a major score! This gel is super effective in terms of hydration, again just slightly messy. ![]() This product absorbs into dry skin very well, my only piece of advice, however, is to let it set in before getting dressed, as this product can be a bit messy. I love the Cocoa Butter scent, it's light and slightly sweet, but neutral enough to wear with any other fragrance you've already applied, as well. You also want to make sure that the cap is completely sealed (I know it sounds obvious, but the cap is one of those tricky ones that appears to be sealed, while it in fact, isn't.) Other than being slightly messy and somewhat annoying to clean up, I'd definitely say the pros outweigh the cons, especially if you're a bit more on the parched side. This product is definitely a bit messy, you really need to be careful while applying and ensure you give it some time to absorb, as well, before dressing. Of course, with this product being so fabulous, there'd have to be a down side (very small, of course), but a down side nonetheless. Not only is it incredibly moisturizing and skin softening, but it also has an incredible, lightly sweet scent with the Cocoa Butter formula. While I sometimes have a hard time trapping moisture into my dry skin (especially after braving numerous Midwest winters), the Vaseline Cocoa Butter gel has been a lifesaver. It does seem to increase the stretch in your skin though and relieves itching. It also transferred onto my leggings and made some parts darker than others, I guess where I had applied too much. If I wear it when I am sweating it can get a little sticky and uncomfortable. I could not wear a tank top for a while though because it was red and gross looking. I did not get any bumps or acne on anywhere else that I applied it (arms, legs, etc.). However, this broke me out and gave me bumps on my shoulders. ![]() It goes really great with vanilla-scented stuff. It smells really good, just like any classic cocoa butter scent. It relieves my skin from feeling dry to feeling hydrated and silky soft. It is a gel and feels really good when you apply it in the summer time because it is cold. ![]() It can be overdone really easily and you have to be very careful when applying. If I use just a little too much, I look like an oily mess. If I use a small amount, it can make my skin glow. ![]()
