Kate McLeod earns strong reviews for body stones that deliver deep, lasting hydration, silky slip, and a spa-like, clean-scented ritual—yes, they work and feel indulgent.

  • This moisturizing bar is so nice, it makes my skin feel silky smooth, and very hydrated. This is an innovative product and I definitely recommend it. It is luxury and makes me feel pampered and the consistency is great!

  • I use this every single night and it has made my skin feel extremely hydrated and nourished. This scent is perfect before bedtime and I love the bar because it is very easy to apply and absorbs very well.

  • WOW, received as a gift as I recover from brain surgery and have been having trouble sleeping. These little pebbles are unbelievable! I added to the bath and instantly felt super soft and relaxed by the lavender scent. Still, almost 24 hours later, my skin feels super smooth and hydrated. So glad to have received as a gift, I will definitely be repurchasing. And to sweeten the deal.... they are plant powered!

  • I was so surprised by how much I love these body stones. I've never thought about applying lotion in this manner. If you're someone who loves taking little moments for yourself throughout the day, I really enjoy using these stones. I got the Daily Stone and I LOVE the scent. I warm up the stone in my hands for a few seconds and then run it all across my body after a shower. It's easy to apply (although it does slip out of my hands sometimes). Feels great on the skin and does a good job moisturizing. I think these make a great gift, too! The only thing I was disappointed by- after an hour or so, you can't really smell that delicious scent on your skin. It doesn't really last.

  • Great lotion, love the format. It absorbs well and looks pretty on my sink. A friend sent it to me as a thank you gift before I had heard of it. Definitely will repurchase when I run out.

  • I HATE lotion - the texture is gross to me. I first discovered this brand at a Christmas Market in NYC and was compelled to buy - IT CHANGED MY LIFE. These bars were made for me, the just melt in your hands and rub in so well. They are a bit pricy but no other brand compares - this is a go to and worth every dime.

  • Just okay. You can find a similar product at Lush for less. I thought it would be something different, but it failed to deliver. These make a great gift but otherwise i would not repurchase.

  • Really love there - they are great for traveling and so fun to use. Really love the scents they offer and they do feel moisturizing. Two downsides are they don't last very long and the scent doesn't really linger. Still a decadent experience and I do recommend!

  • These body stones are wonderful. The original's scent is spa like without being overpowering (I can be sensitive to strong smells) and the product glides right onto the skin without getting too melty in the hands. Leaves a gorgeous sheen on the skin, and I love that the ingredients are clean and natural. Using this has become a luxurious ritual. Will absolutely repurchase.

  • This lotion bar is so lovely and luxurious, you can FEEl the love that went into creating it. I love that the ritual of application forces you to slow down (you have to slowly drag the bar across your skin for it to melt) and the experience is lovely. It's a bit heavy for me in the summer, but my skin drinks it up in the winter. Love that it's package-free as well! Very travel-friendly.

    Nothing :)

  • I originally bought a mini sample 3 pack and then enjoyed those lotions enough to pick up a couple regular size bars. The very nice thing about these is how rich they are. Sometimes a lotion just feels like as soon as you apply it, it’s already gone. Not with Kate McLeod these are rich…extremely rich. They melt as you use them with very little handling. The scents are all very pleasant (in my experience). My son has eczema and using this lotion has been helpful for him. He also likes seems to enjoy the scents.

    So rich they are almost kind of greasy. The meltability also was an issue when one of the bars spent 10 minutes in a hot car…..oh what a mess I can see why they sell cases for these!

  • new to me product and brand that i love! such an interesting concept! the product itself is super moisturizing and feels great on the skin (although a little ’greasy’ at first). very subtle scent and the product lasts a long while! no plastic packaging is amazing - the case it comes in can definitely be reused!

    i wish the scent was a little stronger!

  • Love these body stones! They are so easy to use and such an everyday staple for soft skin.
