Butter & Me earns positive reviews for delivering soft, hydrated skin with lotion bars and mini scrub soaps that melt smoothly, absorb cleanly, and leave scents that linger. Reviews also flag drawbacks: some bars feel greasy or sticky, can be hard to melt in cooler settings, crumble or break apart, and certain scents skew overpowering or off-putting for sensitive noses.

  • I purchased this item for testing with no discount for Thingtesting. It took about a week for it to be shipped. I bought the Choco Body Scrub Mini Gift Set. It has all 4 scents. I tried them all and the Lavendar bar I did not feel it smelled like chocolate or had much scrub in it. I am not sure if it was just this one. The rest of the scents were good and had plenty of scrub in. Left your skin smooth. It is great for the face as they are small. One good thing with these bars is that they travel good. They carry lotion and lip balm which I would like to try. I would recommend.

  • It’s a nice concept to have lotion in a bar. It warmed up pretty nice in my palms and left very sheer and light lotion i could rub in. It didn’t feel greasy and the scent was beautiful! It’s kind of weird to get used to though if you are used to using bottle Lotion.

  • I purchased the Happy lotion bar scent, which is Bergamot + Ylang Ylang. The idea of a lotion bar is really nifty, and I enjoy that I can carry it around, but the scent is incredibly strong and overwhelming. It's less of a gentle scent and more of an overpowering smell, akin to cleaning chemicals or essential oils. I love how soft it makes my skin, and the shine it gives, but the overpowering smell alone makes it difficult to use more frequently. It's super cute though!

  • I loved it too much. The smell really does calm, just as it says! Makes the skin smell and feel amazing. Packaging very nice. I want more lol

  • I chose the geranium and white champaca . I was so excited for this but I'm so disappointed. Opening the box it immediately smelled like bug spray or deet. I did use it and it didn't smell any better on. It warmed it in my hands but it doesn't apply easy even to my palms so it hurt to try to rub into my hands. Unfortunately while I like the idea of this that's all I liked.

  • I tried a mini butter melt lotion bar in the 'happy' scent - it smells so bright and citrusy. It's the perfect size for holding in one's palms to warm up, and its lotion is great-smelling and long-lasting. I was so excited to try this innovative product, and it did not disappoint! The box was even fun to open!

  • I am so impressed with this lotion bar! From the moment I opened it, the scent was incredible—light, natural, and not overpowering. It melts beautifully with the warmth of your hands and glides on like silk. My skin feels noticeably softer and more hydrated, and I love that it doesn’t leave a greasy residue.

  • The look and smell are amazing. Really looks and feels like a premium product. I know these mini scrubs will come in handy for the summer.

  • I love the idea of this and maybe in the summer it would work better for me but I find it doesn't really melt down enough to easily glide across my skin. I have to be rubbing it/warming it up for so long and even still, it kinda of pulls at my arm hairs a little. The smell is amazing and natural and I love a low waste product so maybe in the summer when it's warmed out this would be easier to use! (My house gets VERY cold).

  • I purchased one package of the Choco Body Scrub Mini and was reimbursed by thingtesting for my review. Shipping was incredibly fast. I was a little worried given the excessive heat outside that the product would arrive melted. I read in their email to stick the envelope in the fridge if it was outdoors in the heat to help prevent that. Well, it worked! When I did eventually open the product it was not melted and was firm. The lavender scent was gentle and feminine. It suds up nicely in the shower to form a scrub. I enjoyed this product and could see buying it again for myself in the future or for someone else as a gift.

  • I really enjoyed this product. Smell was nice and it really moisturized. I like having stuff like this in my bathroom, especially during winter.

  • This is a very nice and good smelling soap. I think is too pricey for me to ever purchase again. But it does have a great smell to it.

  • I thought this was a great idea for a product! I love shampoo bars and body wash bars. However, this one just seemed to fall short for me. It gave me a sticky/greasy residue on the palms of my hands because I have to warm the bar up before using it as a lotion/butter. I never tend to put lotion on the palms of my hands, just the backs, so I didn’t like this feeling.

  • Loved how this product worked! The perfect gentle cleansing exfoliant and good ingredients. Only slight issue was it really crumbled into smaller pieces so was a little hard to use. I hope they can make it so it holds together better, but I would still continue to use this!

  • This is the first time I have ever tried a bar lotion. I was pleasantly surprised! It really left my skin as soft as regular lotion. The portability and no mess make this a win win.

  • I love their product, they delivered well ad]nd their teams are super friendly. Yes, I highly recommend them. Their product is very very amazing.

  • Love the product and how I could moisturize my hands easily. The smell was quite strong though, so be aware if you’re sensitive to scents! Oh and if you were a lot of rings, be careful as they will scrape into the bar

  • I don’t think skeptical is the right word, but I was a little nervous how effective my mini butter melt lotion bar would be. Turns out that was not at all an issue as it works great! Heats up quickly and easily glides over your skin. It has a little bit of greasiness to it so it’s kinda hard to put on and then immediately put on some clothes - jeans, leggings, etc. But it’s amazing for bedtime or just lounging around time and the scent I got, Calm, smells wonderful and is super potent. I also found myself in need of a quick hand lotion and it worked well for that too. Definitely will buy again.
