Burt's Bees Richly Replenishing Coconut Foot Cream

I have a love hate relationship with my feet, they're quite the touchy subject. They're not in terrible condition, more like they'd benefit from a lot of tlc if I had the time to really lavish attention on them. When I was picking out my Christmas presents from my boyfriend we were in Boots (of course!) and I came across this foot lotion from Burt's Bees. I've not tried too much in the way of Burt's Bees before, and didn't own a product that is foot specific, but I love the smell of coconut and this smells delicious so I was sold!

Burt's Bees say, 'Take a walk on the wild side! Burt's Bees pampering natural foot cream combines coconut oil, lanolin and vegetable glycerin to revive and rejuvenate even the driest, most neglected feet. There's also a hint of rosemary and peppermint oils to refresh tired feet. Go nuts for incredibly soft feet, naturally. Your feet will never be the same.'

I can't say I've 'gone nuts' for this product but it's definitely something I keep wanting to use. I was expecting this to be like a moisturising cream like the name suggests it is, so I was pleasantly surprised to find a gel with what feels like tiny micro-beads suspended in it. There's no mention of an exfoliating element anywhere on the packaging, so either I am imagining feeling these micro-beads or I have a duff tube. Puzzling indeed. However, the gel itself is incredibly rich and moisturising, and it turns into an oily texture once applied to the feet. Some might think that this adds a bit of a sticky film to the foot, but once you've left it to soak in for a while it feels extra nourishing and your foot feels super soft and super smooth.

The only downside to this is the price, it's RRP is £12.99, which is quite pricy for a foot cream that might not suit everyone's taste. You can find it cheaper however, when Boots do 3 for 2 on indulgent bathing or on feel unique where I thinks it's more affordable, around the £8 mark.

How do you take care of your feet?
