Does anyone know why their body lotion is 50 dollars? Their face cream helped me out a couple of times-really good. I don't know if the body lotion is new but the price amazed me?

In general products containing many botanicals are usually costly. Botanicals, including oils and extracts, are grown and that takes hands-on labor plus it takes more labor/technology to refine the raw products to get it to market for selling.
