I ordered this for moisturizing any dry or itchy body part, I’m not prone to dryness in my ‘nether region’ but I can use it in that area b/c of the ingredient list. No additives, no fragrance, just avocado oil, olive fruit oil, beeswax, shea butter and hippophee rhamnoides oil (look it up, aka sea buckthorn oil). I’m confident with their claim of this being a gentle skin balm and a patch test issued no reaction, no problem. Note that this is not a cream, it’s a balm. A balm is thicker with no water and is oil-based. So it’s slightly hard & waxy feeling without being greasy and kind of layers on as it ‘melts’. I use a very small scraper to take it out of the container so it’s a more hygienic removal from the jar. I then transfer it to clean hands and have applied this to my elbows, feet, a dry spot on my arm, and a few times to my nether region. All areas had good results with discomfort melting into comfort and feeling better hydrated. This balm is made in China. Although I truly appreciate their ingredients, I did note that the listing title suggests that it’s organic, but I didn’t find a certification or notice of this is on their box or the jar, hence 4 stars for the incongruity of this. Even so, Bodyotics offers many women’s products and I have another item from them that I love and I think this balm falls in the same category.
Love the shape of the packaging. It’s as pictured and does the job well. During the colder months I get dry and use it often in the evenings. It’s unscented as it says and it’s very dense like petroleum jelly but not as sticky. It almost dries matte but not really. Since this does go in the most sensitive lady parts I did do a small patch at first before using more of it. Nothing to report, no side effects, love using it altogether!
I ordered this because I am a woman of a certain age and dryness can happen as part of life. I wanted something gentle that would not irritate sensitive skin, and I am pleased with this so far. The packaging is cute and discreet. The little ball container is easy to hold and it keeps the product clean and secure.What impressed me most is that this balm has absolutely no scent. Many products say unscented but still have a smell. This one has none at all, and I have a very sharp sense of smell. I also appreciated that it melted on contact without feeling greasy. Before using it where intended, I did a patch test for several days because I have eczema and allergies. I had no reaction at all, which gave me confidence to move forward.As for the price, I am still deciding. It is a small amount of product for nearly twenty eight dollars, but you do not need much. If it continues to help with dryness, it will be worth it. I am cautiously optimistic and giving it four stars for now.
