Okay, Let’s Talk About Butt Cream
Listen, I never thought I’d be the person writing a review for a cream you put on your butt. But here we are. I bought the West&Month Firming Hip & Buttock Moisturizer on a total whim after one too many Instagram ads got me. I was just scrolling, minding my business, probably watching cat videos, and BAM. “Firmer, hydrated skin.” Honestly, I was skeptical, but my usual coconut oil wasn’t cutting it, especially with this dry winter air. So I figured, why not?
First Impressions & The Feel
When it arrived, the packaging was… fine. Nothing fancy, which I kind of appreciate. No crazy promises printed everywhere. I opened it up and gave it a sniff. It has this very, very light, clean scent. Almost nothing, which is perfect because who wants their backside smelling like a perfume counter?
Here’s the thing I liked immediately: the texture. They call it lightweight, and for once, that’s accurate. It’s not a thick, greasy paste. It’s more like a silky lotion. I put some on after my shower, and it absorbed pretty much right away. No sitting around in a towel waiting to dry. That’s a huge plus in my book. My pajamas weren’t sticking to me, which is the unofficial test for any body cream, right?
How It Stacks Up Against My Old Routine
I made a quick comparison chart because I know some of you just want the facts without my rambling.
| What I Used Before | West&Month Cream |
|---|---|
| Plain Coconut Oil | Cream with Coffee, Collagen, Vitamin E |
| Super Greasy, Absorbs Slow | Light, Absorbs Really Fast |
| Cost: ~$10 for a big jar | Cost: $26.99 for this tube |
| Hydration: Good, but messy | Hydration: Excellent, no residue |
The Real Results After a Month
I’ve been using this pretty much every day for about 4 weeks now. Gotta be honest, I wasn’t expecting a miracle lift from a cream. Let’s be real. But on the hydration front? It’s fantastic. My skin feels seriously soft and smooth, way more than before. The “tight” feeling after shaving or from dry skin is completely gone.
As for firming… I think I see a slight difference? It’s subtle. My skin definitely looks and feels more “toned” and bouncy, for lack of a better word. It’s not a dramatic surgical change, but there’s an improvement in elasticity. I’m happy with that. It feels nourished.
The Not-So-Perfect Bits
Alright, let’s keep it real. It’s not all perfect. My main gripe is the price point. For the amount you get, $27 is a bit steep for a body cream. I wish the tube was bigger. I’m going through it faster than I’d like because the area you need to cover is, well, sizable. Also, the name is a mouthful. “West&Month Firming Hip & Buttock Moisturizer Cream with Hydration.” Can we get a shorter name, please?
Final Verdict: Would I Buy It Again?
Honestly? Yeah, I think I would. The fast absorption and the genuine hydration make it a winner for me. It’s become a nice part of my routine. Is it a magic potion? No. But it’s a really, really good moisturizer that targets an area other creams ignore. If you’re looking for serious dryness relief and a bit of skin quality improvement, it’s worth a try. Just be prepared to repurchase if you love it.
So that’s my two cents. It’s a solid 4 out of 5 from me. Now, back to those cat videos.
