All Graveolent, No Glory! Soap & Glory The Righteous Butter Body Butter

This past Sunday, while tidying up my apartment, I found Soap & Glory's The Righteous Butter Body Butter (can they add any more butter to the name?!) in a box. I'm almost certain I got rid of this body butter, but there it was...staring back...mocking me, just like the cat from "The Cat Came Back" song. This 50 ml/1.69 us fl.oz size was a Sephora Beauty Insider Punishment...excuse me, I meant reward. The Righteous Butter Body Butter claims to have a new dynamic moisture trap matrix that helps prolong, and lock in moisture, and soften the skin. Promising claims, and possibly true, but I couldn't get past the revolting smell. Oh my goodness! I think patchouli smells better than this body butter...and that's saying a lot because I loath patchouli! The first time (and only time) I used this moisturizer, I put it on my arms and legs. Immediately, I was overwhelmed by the vile scent of a floral perfume gone bad (rotted), mixed with laundry detergent, and crushed up vitamin pill supplements. I started to get a headache and feel sick from this product, quickly taking a shower, and ridding myself of this horrid fragrance. For those of you who like this product, this post is not meant to offend or insult. But Soap & Glory and I we not meant to be. And as a the late, great Gen. George S. Patton once said, "If everyone is thinking alike, then somebody isn't thinking."

Looking gorgeous one lipstick at a time.
