Can This Balm Heal Your Body?

Soaptopia claims its 50/50 Body Balms are ultra-moist and fragrant, making for a strong sensory experience.

The key? The all-natural treatment's 50 percent essential oil, 50 percent therapy cream mixture. But will it soothe and smooth skin 100 percent? We had Style staffers try out the Sub Lime Coconut flavor to see if it's really the cream of the crop.

"When I first saw that the body balm was half oil I wasn't sure that I'd like it, but from the moment I put it on I could see a difference. The lime and coconut scent was amazing., and it really made my hands feel smooth and silky. The only thing I didn't like was that the oil and cream weren't mixed in perfectly."

"The balm made my hands silky, shiny and smooth. My skin didn’t feel too greasy or sticky like other lotions and balms sometimes do. If you don't like using oils or heavily scented lotions, I wouldn't recommend this product because it might not mix too well with a strong perfume. In fact, the Sub Lime Coconut was a tad too strong."
—Laura L., International

"The nourishing blend of coconut and essential lime oils allows for decadent and smooth skin, but note: This is not a "girl on the go" lotion—it's thick and creamy and takes a while to dry. But if you're set for a night in, indulge yourself! Just make sure you get a scent that you enjoy—they have plenty. Coconut and lime just aren't  my taste, especially considering how potent the aroma is in this small jar."
