£4.00 

Yes, a measly four pound!
This is store only, they don't sell them online 

Its a fantastic apricot scent, smells a little like mango too. It is a good size tin a lot bigger than your average Nivea. So with it being a high street brand as well as getting the most for your money. It is going towards a good cause. 

You can use it

- Dry areas, elbows etc, 

- Cuticles 

- Sore chapped lips

-Sore nose

-Under lipstick

-Eyebrows

For me, this is perfect on the lips! I am not sure about on the hair, putting a silky butter on the hair for me just screams greasy!
