Yes, "bum bum cream," specifically Brazilian Bum Bum Cream, is marketed for use on your buttocks, but its application isn't limited to that area.
What is Bum Bum Cream?
Brazilian Bum Bum Cream, a popular body cream, is named using an informal term for "buttocks" in Brazilian Portuguese. While its name suggests a specific use, it's designed for broader application.
Uses Beyond the Buttocks
The cream's versatility is a key selling point. Many users and manufacturers highlight that it can be used on various body parts to improve skin texture and appearance.
- Legs: Apply to legs for smoother, firmer-looking skin.
- Arms: Use it on the arms for a similar effect to the legs.
- Chest: Apply to the chest area for improved skin tone.
- Tummy: The cream can be applied to the abdomen area.
Multiple sources confirm this broader application:
- “This isn't just for your booty, it can be used as a full-body cream."
- "Use it on your bum bum, legs, tummy, arms—anywhere you need a lift for positively glowing skin."(https://soldejaneiro.com/products/brazilian-bum-bum-cream)
- "I usually use it on my arms and chest, and my legs/butt." (https://www.reddit.com/r/Sephora/comments/1cbs102/did_brazilian_bum_bum_cream_do_anything_for_you/)
Understanding the Marketing
The name "Bum Bum Cream" is a playful and memorable marketing tactic. While it directly points to the buttocks, the product's actual functionality is much wider than just this single area.
