Review:  Many of you know I am obsessed with the Sol De Janeiro Bum Bum Cream.  I have not stopped using it since 2017 and have back-ups of the large tub.  The sweet almond and pistachio scent is divine.  Sol De Janeiro released the Coco Cabana Cream on December 1, 2018.  So of course, I pre-ordered before it released at Sephora on December 26th.  This is heavenly.  I am not surprised that I am in love with this just as I am with the Bum Bum Cream.  It has the perfect Coconut scent, not too heavy, not too light.  It reminds me of the consistency and smell of the First Aid Beauty Coconut Water Cream Facial Moisturizer.  Now, this does not have the firming properties of the Bum Bum Cream so it is not exactly the same kind of body cream.  However, this is perfect for the winter time when the skin gets a tad bit dry due to the cooler weather.  I love that it is lightweight and yet still moisturizes the skin extremely well.  Some lightweight body cream do not offer the extreme moisture the Coco Cabana does.  It is packaged the same exact way as the Bum Bum Cream except this is in a teal-blue colored tub.  I am picky about my skincare and when I find something good that does not irritate my skin, I latch on to them like it is going out of style.  I definitely recommend this product if you need extra moisture on your skin and yet enjoy the lightweight feel of this product and its fresh Coconut scent.
