Product reviews of Bliss Lemon + Sage Body Butter
Review: Medium-Weight Moisturizer with a Heavenly Light, Non-Perfumy Scent.
Beauty product: 4 Stars
I admit that I am more attracted to Bliss Lemon + Sage Body Butter for its scent than for its moisturizing properties, but this is a useful and pleasant-smelling hand and body cream. I'm sensitive to scents; anything perfumy overwhelms me. But I was hooked the first time I smelled the Lemon + Sage. I can only describe it as a light, bright scent, blissfully free of floral and spicy fragrances. Bliss describes it as a "citrus-y top note trio of litsea, yuzu, and Argentinian lemon, plus verdant notes of sage and elemi." Hmm. In case you're wondering, litsea is a tropical evergreen, yuzu is an Asian citrus fruit, and elemi is a tree native to the Philippines whose resin has a lemon-like scent.
Despite Bliss' description, lemon is not an ingredient. That made sense to me when I thought about it. This lotion smells more like lemongrass than like lemon. It's lemony, but with a smoother, rounder scent than the citrus fruit. Lo and behold, it contains citral, which is a chemical found in many lemony-scented plants, including lemongrass. It also contains limonene, from the rind of lemon. Predictably, sage is not an ingredient either, but the cream contains calluna vulgaris, which is a heathering shrub, and arnica montana, aka Wolf's Bane. I'm wondering if either of those could account for the "sage" scent, which is muted and in the background anyway.
So I got a little obsessed with the mysteries of the scent. The lotion is a medium-weight moisturizer that absorbs into skin fairly quickly. It's not for very dry skin. It's better as a preventative to lock moisture in after shower or after washing your hands. The good thing about it, besides the lovely scent that doesn't linger, is that it is not very oily, so your skin doesn't remain sticky for long. This is also the Body Butter's weakness. A stickier moisturizer like Eucerin does a better job of preventing moisture loss for longer. That's why I use Eucerin Original after waxing. But this Lemon + Sage Body Butter is good for everything else. The only thing I don't like is the packaging. I would prefer a pump to a tube, and I can't stand beauty product containers that don't allow me to see how much is left.
