Curious about why people are raving about Bum Bum Cream? I’m sharing my honest opinion on the Sol De Janeiro product!
I’ll never forget the first time I heard someone talking about Bum Bum Cream – I laughed out loud! What the heck is BUM BUM CREAM?! All I really knew was that it came in a bright yellow tub. Either way, I was completely curious.
What is Bum Bum Cream?
Made by Sol de Janeiro, Bum Bum Cream is: a fast-absorbing body cream with an addictive scent and a visibly tightening, smoothing formula that adds a hint of shimmer to skin. The scent can be described as warm with hints of vanilla, salted caramel, and pistachio.

In my opinion, the scent is completely intoxicating and one of the main sellers of the product for me. Why? Because it LASTS! I’m getting ahead of myself…
Today, I wanted to do a full review on the product, because I’ve been using it for several years now, and if you are like me when I first discovered it – you want all the details before you spend the money!
Brazilian Bum Bum Cream Review
Founded in Brazil, the makers of Sol de Janeiro wanted products that embodied the positive mindset of Brazilians – focusing heavily on loving yourself and life. Basically, if ya got it, flaunt it. Their most popular product is Bum Bum Cream, but they also make shampoo, conditioner, body spray, and more in their signature scent.
Why I Love The Cream
1. If it wasn’t obvious, the scent is a huge seller for me. It’s distinct, but not over the top, and sticks with your throughout the day. The cream’s scent works like a perfume and anytime I wear it people ask what it is!
2. The cream is thick (think like a heavy frosting consistency), so it really moisturizes. Living in Hawaii, my skin is constantly exposed to sunlight and it’s important to me to keep it hydrated. This really performs, especially when I’ve used it for super dry patches on my shins.
3. I don’t just use it on my bum 😉 In reality, I use it all over my body. Not only do I love the shimmer, it really does firm up skin with consistent use.
4. A little bit goes a long way. The $45 price tag intimidated me, but I can make a single tub (240ml) last 3 months easily!
