Alles Wat Je Moet Weten Over Bodylotion Bum Bum

The Best Bum Bum Cream Alternatives

They smell just as good — and will save you lots of cash.

Makeup products tend to get all of the attention when it comes to viral popularity (and in the case of prestige products like Charlotte Tilbury’s ‘Pillow Talk’ lipstick, the hunt for the perfect alternative). But beauty brand Sol De Janeiro put body care in the spotlight with its cult-favorite (and celebrity-loved) Bum Bum Cream. The luxe cream has both moisturizing and firming benefits, but it’s the long-lasting scent that mixes notes of pistachio, salted caramel, jasmine, and vanilla that has made it truly splurge-worthy. Thankfully, the best Bum Bum Cream alternatives will give you similar skin-smoothing benefits (and beachy vibes) for less than half the cost (an 8-ounce tub of Bum Bum Cream will set you back $48, FYI).

Scan through the original Bum Bum Cream’s list of ingredients, and you’ll find nourishing botanicals like cupuaçu butter and coconut oil, as well as lightweight hydrators like hyaluronic acid and squalane. Then, there’s a combination of antioxidant-rich ingredients like guarana extract, açaí oil, and brazil nut (which harken to the brand’s Brazilian inspiration) that work to improve skin’s elasticity and provide protection against environmental damage. On the list ahead, you’ll find a mix of similar lotions and body creams, all formulated with nourishing butter and oils like shea butter, cocoa seed butter, mango seed butter, and coconut oil. Each of these alternatives features a tropical-inspired scent, several of which have even been compared to the beloved Bum Bum Cream.

A Body Butter Designed For Post-Sun Use

Though this Hawaiian Tropic Exotic Coconut After Sun Body Butter was created to rehydrate skin after a day in the sun (having worn and reapplied your SPF, of course), you can use it whenever you want to transport yourself to warmer weather. Shea, mango seed, and cocoa seed butters are combined with coconut and avocado oils to give this intensely moisturizing body butter a silky feel as you apply it, which lasts for up to 12 hours. It even comes complete with the beachy, coconut-y scent that Hawaiian Tropic is known for.

Key Ingredients: Shea Butter, Mango Seed Butter, Cocoa Seed Butter, Coconut Oil, Avocado Oil, Vitamin E, Papaya Fruit Extract, Mango Fruit Extract, Panthenol, Aloe Leaf Juice Scent: Coconut Size: 8 oz.

Relevant Review: “So I love a certain Bum Bum cream, crazy overpriced if you ask me. This smells like you just emerged from the tropics but is super inexpensive. I use this primarily after a day in the sun. It does not feel greasy at all and leaves my skin amazing for about 12 hours.”

OGX Extra Creamy + Coconut Miracle Oil Ultra Moisture Body Lotion

OGX Extra Creamy + Coconut Miracle Oil Ultra Moisture Body Lotion is a lightweight body lotion that is infused with nourishing ingredients like coconut oil, essence of tiara, and vanilla bean extract to moisturize and soften the skin.

Coconut oil is a natural emollient that helps to lock in moisture and keep the skin hydrated.

Coconut oil is rich in fatty acids like lauric acid, which has antibacterial properties. This oil can help protect the skin barrier and is ideal for those with a dry skin type.

This OGX lotion also contains safflower seed oil, a plant oil that is rich in fatty acids that help moisturize and soften the skin.

Vitamin E is an antioxidant that protects the skin from environmental damage which can contribute to the visible signs of aging.

This super-affordable Bum Bum Cream dupe also has a tropical coconut vanilla scent and a smell that is reminiscent of Brazilian Bum Bum Cream.

I think of this Brazilian bum bum dupe more like a muted, less-intense version of Bum Bum Cream’s addictive exotic scent.

It has a thinner lotion consistency compared to Bum Bum Cream’s thicker texture. It’s also non-greasy and absorbs quickly, leaving you with hydrated, softer, and smoother skin.
