Good aroma, nice feeling by An electronics fan from on 2010-03-26 I have used this oil for more than 4 months, starting with my third pregnancy month. Weleda is a German company that makes a lot of natural products so that is what attracted me to the product in the first place. I rub it on my belly and thighs to hydrate my skin. Until now (7th month of pregnancy) my skin has remained smooth, no stretch marks. Of course, I think it depends from person to person. Some women get horrible stretch marks, others don’t. But I feel like the oil can help prevent some of that and I like its aroma, it’s very calming. It gets fast into your skin and if I have anything left on my palms I rub them against my thighs and I also rub my hands, it helps hydrate my hands too. The price on Amazon (about $13 for 3.4 Oz.) beats the price on Weleda or Target websites.
Great Product by C. Chinchilla from Texas on 2009-11-30 I love this product. It smells pleasant but not too strong, it is very moisturizing but not greasy, and it soothes itchy dry skin.
lovin it! by A. Paul from Pleasant Grove, Ut on 2009-08-31 I have tried several different products for stretch marks but this one is my favorite. It goes on easily and soaks into your skin pretty quickly. It doesn’t stain my clothes and it lasts several hours. I would highly recommend it!
Great so far… by C. Hamlett from Germany on 2009-05-28 I have only had this for a week, but it seems to work pretty well. It does smell a little, but not too bad. The smell does also go away pretty quickly. This oil doesn’t make my clothes greasy like another one I tried.
Great oil by Adrienne J. Doidge from Costa Mesa, CA on 2009-04-03 This oil is amazing. It smells great and doesn’t leave a residue on clothes, etc. It soaks in nicely. I would recommend this most definately.

Body Oil by Eugenia from Boston, MA on 2010-08-27 I added a little bit of jasmine perfume oil and now i have two 8.5 ounces bottles of my favorite scent.
alluring by Roc from Atlanta, GA on 2009-12-13 Smooth and gentle oil for the skin, easily washed off and far from greasy. Perfect.
problems with the package by Sergio Bustamante from bavaro dominican republic on 2009-07-08 the product is excellente, the problem was that this item was sent packaged with a book and other stuff, the oil was not well sealled and liked inside and ruined the book the book is still usable but it is suposed to be a new item,
Good Product! by Eddie Wannabee from Western Hemisphere on 2009-02-19 Big Mama likes it and claims it delivers the goods. I do not use this kind of stuff because I am too macho (just kidding around) but I do realize that a smooth skin is much more pleasant than a dried one. 4 Stars for Neutrogena Body Oil, Fragrance Free, 8.5-Ounce Bottles (Pack of 2) !
Neutrogena unscented body oil – great for mild eczema by Southern Mom from North Carolina, USA on 2009-01-24 I suffer from mild eczema in wintertime, and if I do not keep ‘ahead’ of it, it soon becomes “less than mild” requiring drugs which I loathe. After many seasons of unsuccessful testing of various lotions, potions, creams & such, I tried Neutrogena unscented/fragrance-free Body Oil – which when used after EVERY SINGLE shower/bath, is great. Some seasons I manage not to get an outbreak at all. Lightyears more effective than baby oil or any lotion I’ve every tried (and I have tried them all). It is good as a bath oil too (well, if it’s a bathtub you either don’t share or religiously wash down after every use). I don’t like scent/perfume, but the sesame scent isn’t bad nor overpowering – and it costs less (grrr – because it is available in larger container), so I tend to mix them because I”m cheap. My family objects to the sesame smell in shared bathroom, however.
A sheer moisturizing experience. Experience Neutrogena Body Oil, its light sesame formula glides on easily to moisturize dry skin. It’s so sheer it vanishes into shower-damp skin leaving it soft and silky, with a radiant, healthy glow. No moisturizer can touch this experience. Made in USA.

Winter Treatment by spnyc from new york on 2010-01-21 This product is my daily routine for NY winters… I cant seem to find it in regular pharmacy stores so I ordered it on amazon.
Permanent End to Dry Skin! Really! by Wandrwoman from NY, NY on 2009-07-24 I am totally devoted to this product! A 32oz pump bottle of Neutrogena Light Sesame Body Oil sits on the ledge of my bath tub right next to my other very favorite bath/shower product…..Vitabath Moisturizing Bath & Shower Gelee, Original Spring Green. When used together, my skin stays soft and smooth even during the coldest winters.
I first learned of Neutrogena Light Sesame Body Oil from an article in a magazine about the personal favorite products of beauty profesionals. The oil was mentioned several times as a tried and true after-bath or shower moisturizer for even the driest or most problematic skins.
The oil is meant to be applied to the body immediately after bathing or showering but before toweling dry. The oil is quickly absorbed into the skin, almost nothing is left on the towel used to dry yourself. Once dry, your skin is silky smooth but not oily. The fragrance is delicate and clean and not cloying.
I then apply a good moisturizer like(Olay Quench Body Lotion Extra Dry Skin – 20.2 Oz)to my hands, feet, elbows and any other area that I think could use a little more softening and smoothing.
The oil and the moisturizer combine to form a moisture barrier on the skin that lasts and lasts. It’s surprising to see how quickly the oil works! And how much more effective it is to use the after-bath oil than just an moisturizer by itself.
This product is a good investment in your skin’s health and appearance!
Switched product. by D. K. Rose from Garland, Texas on 2009-03-04 I ordered the original scented body oil and received the sesame formula. I was really disappointed. But now that I have used the oil, I like it too.
Neutrogena Body Oil by DA-K from Norwalk, CT USA on 2009-02-27 I’ve used Neutrogena body oil for a number of years. Prior to using it, I was a “baby oil kid”. However, baby oil was greasy and sometimes got on my clothes. What I like most about Neutrogena body oil is that it is non-greasy, with a pleasant smell that doesn’t overpower me.
Nice addition to shower :) by ElastiGirl from on 2009-01-28 So glad to find a pump bottle of this for the shower. Very convenient and of course it works great in the dry winter air.

Keeps skin smooth and soft, great bargain in the two pack, available for interval shipping as well, eligible for free super saver shipping with amazon a plus. Fresh from the shower, seal in moisture using this product, love it!
perfect for dry skin relief by R. Katt from Virginia on 2010-04-27 I’ve been using a 50:50 mix of Neutrogena sesame oil and baby oil for more than 25 years to remoisturize my otherwise chronically dry skin after showering, swimming, etc. The sesame oil is hydrophilic and therefore absorbed well by wet skin. The baby oil (light mineral oil)is hydrophobic so it stays on the skin surface as a light protective coating and lubricant. An inexpensive year-round basic skin care formula for body, hands, feet, and face. Apply while your skin is still wet for best results.
Moisturizing & non-greasy by RetroGurl from CA on 2010-04-19 I am allergic to mineral oil. And it seems everything beauty related or lotion, has mineral oil in it. I found this product when I read that sesame oil is better for your skin than mineral oil. I apply right after my shower to damp skin and let it sink in. Within minutes (or less) it’s totally absorbed and there’s NO greasy feeling! It leaves your skin lightly scented and nicely moisturized with a beautiful, healthy sheen. I personally love the scent. It’s very clean and light and goes well with my other perfumed body lotions or fragrances. I also add this oil to my regular moisturizing lotion (Aveeno) and it makes for a great extra moisturizing product. I buy mine from a bulk warehouse in a HUGE size and it lasts me forever! Great stuff!
Great Savings for these 2 bottles!!! by Kathleen La Barbera from on 2010-04-10 I have been using Neutrogena Light Sesame Body Oil for many years n I love it. Apply it after your bath or shower while your skin is still wet n wait a short while to absorb naturally or pat dry with a towel. You’ll just love the way you skin feels after the first use.
Nasty smell by Janet N. bass freak NY from on 2010-03-12 This oil feels ok. My problem is the obnoxious smell of this oil. It smells like Indian/Rasta/Hippie???? incense. I always cross the street whenever I see people selling these awful smelling scented things. Now I am stuck with two pints of this oil and I don’t know what to do with it. Can’t believe my stupidity in buying so much. I so much wanted to like this oil, how I wish it was unscented.

great oil by Hana from OC, CA on 2010-07-16 I was concerned that I would not like the smell (not usually a a big fan of citrus) but it is light and fades quickly. The oil moisturizes well (takes a few minutes to soak in) and I like that it’s natural. I was afraid it would make me break out and my skin actually looks better than ever, and so far no stretch marks on my growing belly (but I do alternate products on there). So far I haven’t stained anything either, which was another original concern of mine. One bottle did leak in transit, though, so beware.
A happy customer by hotpinkpuff from Seoul, Korea on 2010-03-08 When I find a brand I like, I usually try it across the line but with Burt’s Bees products, I find that I like some more than others. That being said, this is a great product from Burt’s Bees. I used this along with 2 other oils while I was pregnant 3 times a day AND GOT NO STRETCH MARKS! My mother got stretch marks but after giving birth, all I have is the vertical dark line down my belly and that’s it! I love the lemony scent too~ It’s basically the same thing as the lemon oil and vitamin e with a new label slapped on it so either will do the trick!
Really good by J. Cain from Oxford on 2010-03-04 This product is so awesome. If you want a very gentle and mild oil that will leave your skin feeling soft, this is for you! I have very dry, sensitive skin and I’ve been using this oil for a while for facial moisture. So far so good.

Great lotion by Hopeful from on 2010-08-20 I love this stuff. I love the smell, although I have read some reviews of folks who don’t like it. I’ve tried lots of lotions, but I really like this stuff.
DOVE BODY LOTION by ‘Sascha from on 2010-02-24 I first saw this on the Dr.Oz show and I decided to try it…I did and the results are gratifying.. a huge improvement to my skin.
New Favorite by Susan from Mat-Su Valley Alaska on 2010-02-03 Two years ago I developed a sudden break out of eczema on the back of one hand, something I had never experienced before. I tried every lotion I could get my hands on to help sooth it, to no avail, and I eventually ended up having to use a topical prescription steroid cream to get it to go away (not something I really was comfortable using). Then I found this product. It’s fantastic, and has completely replaced the steroid cream, as well as my other regular body lotion. I use it twice a day, and it leaves my skin so soft and hydrated, it feels wonderful. Another reviewer commented on the strong scent, and while I am usually super sensitive to perfumes I find that this goes on a bit strong but quickly dissipates, leaving a soft and very pleasant scent. I love the body wash as well. Well worth the price listed here, although as someone else mentioned, it is cheaper at Walmart and you save yourself the shipping cost.
Dove Cream OIl body lotion by Anna Marie Kollmann from on 2009-12-14 I like the results of this lotion but wished it had sunscreen protection in it.
My new fav lotion by C. Brown from Ocala, FL USA on 2009-03-21 I love this lotion. I even got a compliment on how soft my skin is from someone on the bus. It was very random but I loved the compliment and now I make sure to never go anywhere without using this lotion. The price on here is a lot more than I pay for it though. I will keep buying it at walmart. I divided the price by 3 and you are paying over $7 for one and in Walmart the most you pay is $5.

Very bad packaging by Lorenzo Solano from on 2010-09-07 I’m very disappointed with the packaging of this product. The “Nature’s Alchemy Sweet Almond Oil” bottle breaks; and the two books packaged with it (INCREDIBLE BOOKS AND OIL TOGETHER); got wet also one of them is destroyed.
I will ask for a refund, or resend of damage items.
I’m also buy a Kamasutra Oil of Love, and this item arrive just perfect, so I believe that here the problem is the packaging or the quality of bottles.
How do you package fluids and books together? and
If you know the plastic bottle is not very good, increase the package security!
I like it a lot. by B. Blandford from Flint, TX on 2010-02-02 I found that this oil has a very good texture – not too greasy and it absorbs well. I have not noticed any problems with it staining or leaving marks on fabrics. The scent is very mild. It feels great for massages and seems to be a good value. My pets (cats and dog) seem to like it a lot – they try to lick it off my hands – so I would recommend keeping the bottle away from pets. I would imagine it might make them sick if they got a large quantity of it.
Great oil by N. Matthews from on 2010-02-01 This oil was not at all sticky or messy. It absorbed very quickly into the skin. I will definitely buy more when I’ve finished up with this bottle. One word of advice though, whoever packaged this could definitely do a much better job. The bottle top was not sealed well at all and it leaked through the cardboard box it was mailed it.
As advertised by Ingo Weigold from Chicago, IL on 2010-01-24 Non sticky, clean and natural oil to be used for massages. After using this, I don’t think I would ever use any other type of oil again. Goes on smooth and lasts. Be careful though as the oil does have a tendency to get everywhere.
buyer beware by Cindy Poist from on 2010-01-22 I bought this oil so I could make perfume out of natural essential oils. The product worked good, but when I turned the bottle upside down the plastic rating in the triangle was a 3. You know the saying, 2 4 5 you’ll stay alive. Well when plastic is given a 3 that means that the plastic was treated with pvc which can leak into foods and is a known carcinogen. The whole purpose of making my own perfumes was to stay away from carcinogens in commercial brand perfumes. I was very disappointed :(

Awesome oil! by Melissa K. Wright from Washington, PA USA on 2010-08-13 I use this after a shower/bath and it leaves your skin so soft & silky – not oily – once it soaks in. Love the smell!
The Perfect Oil!!! by V. McCracken from on 2010-07-15 This vanilla dry oil spray is wonderful! It goes on smoothly yet doesn’t feel oily or stickly like baby oil does. The spray is nice to get out of reach areas. I usually spray it into my hand to apply it to my legs to prevent overspray onto the floor. It’s not too thick but stays put. The smell is wonderful but doesn’t last long so it doesn’t interfere with your perfume. This is a great product and I would highly recommend it. I will definitely buy it again!
EVERY TIME I WEAR THIS SOMEONE TELLS ME HOW GOOD I SMELL by ireadabookaday from chicago IL on 2010-04-17 Dry oils sprays are not so easy to find, but they are great as you get the moisture of an oil without all the mess. This one smells so good, people think it’s a perfume. The scent is subtle, not overwhelming. Watkins makes a lot of simple natural products that I trust.
Great products and service by Jones L. Brooks from Georgia on 2009-10-12 enjoyed product, great services, may want to cosider bill me later as an option too.
Hope I never have to live without this! by Becca Mae from on 2009-10-06 JR Watkins dry oil is a MUST HAVE in my body care. I used to be able to find it at Walmart and was LOST when they stopped selling it. I thought it was one of Wal-Mart’s best kept secrets. I looked for it desperately until I found it on Amazon.com. It’s all natural, absorbs quickly, smells GREAT and nourishes my skin like no lotion ever has. I use it every day on my legs and feet and when I found it here I STOCKED UP. Funny…. I almost hesitated recommneding it because I don’t want it to get too popular and either go up in price or become harder to find in stock. But I can’t keep such a good thing to myself… Enjoy!

Love the product, and am glad to find it here by EvaEva from Brooklyn, NY on 2010-05-27 This is awesome skincare, and it baffles me that stores carry every other item from Alba, but not this. I just moved to a different neighborhood, and I had to buy it here, because every single drug store I went to (large or small) had every other Alba product but this. ???? (My old neighborhood was a bit far for me to travel to buy it). The oil is light, has a wonderful gentle warm fragrance, and it gives me the moisture that my skin needs. The best way to use it is to rub it into your skin right after a shower, when your skin is still damp. What that does is trap the moisture and penetrates the way a cream would never do. Once you try oil, you’ll never use cream again! I started using it because creams – no matter how dense were simply not helping my skin – my hands would be dry in minutes, and the cream didn’t penetrate and heal other areas that began to be painful from dryness. As soon as I began using this, those problems were cured. Sometimes if I need some extra hand care, I’ll use a little of the oil in the middle of the day. It smells wonderful and really WORKS (better than the Neutrogena “Sailor’s” super strong hand cream) – remember to rub it into your skin while your hands are still damp. I recommend this as the De Facto skin moisture care product!
Divine scent by Aimee Germain from atlanta,ga on 2010-05-03 The smell of this oil is to die for. Leaves skin glowy and beautiful. I usually apply the kukui lotion later to dryer patches for added moisturizing. This is not a deeply moisturizing oil for those who’s skin is in an extremely dry state. I would say this is for those people who have already gotten our skin to a better state and use this to maintain it staying soft and supple. Great product,I have been using it for years and very happy that Amazon offers a two pack option for this.
A wonderful, light body oil by E. K. Williams from St. Paul, MN USA on 2009-11-29 This is exactly what my title says: a wonderful light body oil. It goes on light, spreads nice and evenly, absorbs quickly, and doesn’t leave you feeling sticky or oily. It also has a very pleasant, very light scent.
My skin tends to be a little on the dry side, and is very sensitive to changes in weather and such, yet this oil works very well for me. It keeps my skin from drying out, keeps it looking healthy and even, and gives me a pretty, natural-looking sheen. HOWEVER, this is NOT for extremely dry or damaged skin.
If your skin is chapped or cracked, you’ll need something much heavier than this. Try a heavier oil (Oils of Aloha has a wonderful kukui oil that saves my hands when they crack) or perhaps a body butter. Shea butter works wonders for really dry skin. Tree Hut makes wonderful butters and lotions with shea, and without parabens or DM DM hydantoin!
Alba Botanica also has a few “body creams” that may work as well. I have yet to try these myself, but they’re very likely just as wonderful as all their other products, several of which I use on a daily basis and LOVE.
Silky, smells divine by Rachel Roque from on 2009-05-06 I’ve used a number of in-shower oils and lotions, but this one is the best. Rinses ok, doesn’t make the shower (or my hair where it touches my shoulders) greasy, but the consistency is thin; if your skin is very dry you may want to supplement with lotion.
I love this body oil! by Wendy from Woodland Hills, CA USA on 2008-09-21 I had very itchy skin and after searching for an oil I could apply after my shower, I finally found Alba Kukui Nut Oil and it works wonders. I no longer have itchy skin. I apply the oil while I’m still wet in the shower and then towel dry. I’m sure some of it comes off on the towel, but not all of it. I can still smell the lovely scent and my skin feels comfortable all day long. Highly recommended!

oil w/fragrance by funtimes from on 2010-07-12 Sorry that I bought this . I could buy oil anywhere,I thought this was suppose to be special.. I was wrong..
mmmm Good Stuff! by De Weezi from North Central Wisconsin on 2009-05-18 This is a win-win product. It smells good, leaves your skin refreshed & moisturized, brightens & freshens tattoos, (yes, I can attest to this, as I have tattoos) AND repels mosquitoes! Plus, men really are attracted to the pheromones contained in it. I really love this stuff; you can add it to your bath water, spritz it on, or use it as a liquid-lotion–and it’s not greasy or clogging.
Smells yummy; feels good all over by Pamela Fender from on 2009-04-16 I have been using this product for years, because just one bottle a few times a week all over, before getting out of the shower, will last for a couple of years! Feels great on your body and love the fragrance.
Love this! by Kara Mel from on 2008-11-10 This spray on body oil not only smells fantastic (my husband LOVES it), but it feels good on the skin, not oily. I also pour a little in my bath water during the dry winter months. Love it!
