I've only heard good things about that lotion. I want to try it so badly! I wanted to order from the site but unfortunately, I live in Canada where it does not ship to. So does any Canadians know where I can purchase this lotion in Canada?

I've used it for 2 days and haven't noticed a difference yet. I'm so impatient. It sinks in nicely but the smell is sooooo strong!

A Canadian Option, maybe? Just not for me...

Hi,

I also live in Canada and am intrigued by this BBW lotion, so I went to Saje (sells essential oils and creams) to see if I could find anything similar. The lady there recommended a scrub made of ground up pumice which had eucalyptus oils in it. It also has sea salts and kelp. It's called Spa Spirit and costs a lot - about 22 bucks for the jar. There's been a lot of good things written about pumice sponges (also can't be found here) so I thought maybe this might kill two birds with one stone!

Well, I tried it for a few days, and yes, my skin DID appear a little smoother - but I think a couple of days of vigorous scrubbing with just about anything would have brought similar results.

What I just couldn't stand was the smell. I felt like a walking medicine cabinet. For me, that was the point where I realised I had to reprioritise my battle against this damn condition. Yes, my spots (dark, on my tan skin) are obvious. But this scrub made me smell from a few feet away - made me think of that episode of Sex in the City where that guy had horrible breath from the herbs he took for longevity. Sometimes the cure can be worse for you than the condition

However, maybe it's just me being fussy and someone else might not object to the smell that much. I mean, it's apparently a big seller at the store, so a lot of other people must like it. Hopefully it works for someone else!

I liked the smell of the BBW lotion. But in terms of helping my skin, nothing, nada, zilch.

re

I shower at night so that's when I apply the BBW and when I wake up the smell is gone. Maybe if you apply that pumice and oil formulation at night, it will be gone by morning!

I've been using the BBW lotion for about a week now. So far there have been no changes. I'm not sure if it was supposed to reduce the KP or just make my skin smoother? Can someone tell me which? I'll continue to use it and see what happens.
