Love this lotion!!!
Size: 4 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
The first bottle I received had leaked all over the inside of the package but I sent that back and got a replacement. I love this lotion. I actually first purchased it while I was in Maui 10 years ago. I love the scent of it and it really moisturizes my skin after sunning.

Absolutely the best, no joke
We actually lived on Maui when we discovered Maui Babe, and have been using it ever since. Let me tell you: it is the BEST after sun lotion, bar none. Got a little over-exposed, and are red and hurting? Throw some Maui Babe on, and not only will it relieve the pain (and eventual itching) of sunburn, it'll help prevent peeling later on. It's great as an every day lotion, of course, but it really shines on sunburn. My husband and I laugh about steering many a sunburned tourist to the Maui Babe display in stores all over Hawaii. "Hey, you really need to get some of THIS for that burn." They always seemed grateful to get steered to something that really worked, instead of the usual lotions and potions that didn't. Anyway, I can highly recommend it, been using it for years, and as a blonde who has lived in Hawaii, southwest Florida, and now down in Panama (where the sun is damned close), I can tell you that it really works. And yes...my last order came all the way to Panama because I can't do without it.

Great product!
Style: Deep Moisturizing, Size: 1.76 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I love this stuff! My mom introduced this to me while I was visiting her, and within 3 days of using it I knew I needed to order one for myself. It has no smell, goes on buttery soft, and soaks in well. It is not heavy at all. At night I layer it on thicker and during the day I put a very thin layer on under my makeup. My skin is so much softer and hydrated. I have had small bumps on my cheeks for so long and they were gone within 3 days. My skin looks dewy and soft. I read reviews of other brands that smelled, were oily, or too heavy. This is none of those things and it is a great price!

Best Beef Tallow Cream I’ve Tried
Style: Deep Moisturizing, Size: 1.76 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Exactly what i was looking for, some of the beef tallow creams have a weird consistency which i don’t love wearing during the day. This cream is perfect for day and night. smells very good, application is perfect not greasy, moisturizing, soft. I love it! 10/10, will be buying again 💗
