What the gurus are saying

Gurus praise the fragrance and nourishing texture, with several noting it works well for dry skin and leaves a lingering scent that draws compliments. However, the price point splits opinion: some find it worth the investment for the moisturizing power and scent, while others caution that because it's lightweight for a body cream, people tend to use a lot and burn through it quickly, making the cost hard to justify. One thing to keep in mind: no cream alone will address cellulite, so expectations there should stay realistic.

"The brand's new iconic Brazilian Bum Bum Cream is a visibly firming body cream with a unique scent of pistachio, salted caramel, and vanilla. Formulated with guarana extract to help tighten the skin, kapuku butter to lock in moisture, and Brazilian nut oil for antioxidant protection. The combination of the addictive scent, rich texture, and beach body confidence marketing strategy really helped make it an instant hit with skincare enthusiasts. I don't love the smell of this product, but when I pick it up in a shop, I'm going to sniff the tester, and then I always have another sniff. I don't want it on me; I'd have it on a candle."

"Sol de Janeiro Bum Bum Cream. What a gorgeous fragrance. This is beautiful. This is great if you love vanilla. If you like the bright, you know, if you like the vanilla kind of vibes, this is great. And this is very nourishing for the body. Yes, you can use it to layer a vanilla fragrance. It'll last better. But like a nice body butter, this is also great."

"It is not cheap. This product is so expensive and because it's a more lightweight moisturizing cream, you end up using a lot on your body, which means you'll go through this product really quickly. It is very expensive. Unless you want to pay that price point, I would say this product is definitely not worth the hype."

"I have a little Sol de Janeiro Bum Bum Cream and this is literally one of my favorite scents from this brand. I have all three and I alternate every other day or whatever depending on what I feel like wearing and this is what's on my skin pretty much every single day. I love how the scent lingers. I get a lot of compliments when I wear this one. These are very very moisturizing as well, it's like a body butter, so if you have dry skin these really do the job. It really helps to repair the skin and again I just love that scent. These are a little bit pricey, they are pretty pricey, but in my opinion they're worth it."

"The Brazilian Bum Bum Cream is just nice because it comes in a large tub, it's easy to kind of dip your hands into, and it smells really summery and fresh. I imagine Brazil to smell like at the beach. You can use that on your body after you've used a dry brush to really get that fluid moving. No cream alone is going to get rid of your cellulite at all, so just FYI before you go and start wasting a ton of money."

"This is really for the body, it's supposed to help tighten and absorb. It may have a nice consistency. If it's light, it's really light. I feel like I may have wanted it to be a bit creamier, but it feels good."
