I used to use this for years, and sometimes still buy it when I am grocery shopping. I loved the slight hints of scents it use to have, as it wasn't over powering. It used to leave my skin soft and moisturized. It was hydrating for the skin and didn't leave a greasy residue that some lotions do leave. It was worth the amount of product for the dollars $ side of it. You got your moneys worth, as it was so affordable. The packaging is simple but works fine with getting the product out with the pump on the top. However, when it gets low you have to take the pump off to get the rest of the product out, but that doesn't bother me. I usually do that with all my lotions bottle that have a pump lid.

Reviews
Fantastic body lotion that really hydrates and moisturises the skin, leaves it feeling soft, smooth and supple until it's washed off. Has a really nice and fresh (but not too strong) scent, and is easy to apply. The only downside is that at the end of the bottle, you have to remove the pump to get what is left of the lotion, and that is really annoying (and can get quite messy!). Packaging aside, the product itself is fab and is very well priced.
i have the driest skin ever and this is my go to daily moisturiser, it is light enough that is soaks in super quick, but heavy enough that it keeped your skin looking hydrated all day
I'm useless at moisturising my body, but for a while there I was all 'girl, you've got to do this, you're not getting any younger', and during this phase I bought the Skin Renewing moisturiser from St Ives, because the idea of younger looking skin really appealed. (Funny that). I love the packaging, you can't beat a pump bottle, and the amount you get for the price you get (especially if it's on special) is excellent. What I especially liked about this product was that it didn't feel greasy on my skin and it didn't feel like a 'film' was left on it. It was super spreadable and sank it quickly. Also, I didn't go 'ugh' at the scent - heck, I didn't even notice a scent, which is a bonus as I prefer to let my perfume do the talking. Or, er, nostril invading. To be honest, I never noticed any dramatic change to my skin's elasticity, but I did like how it felt softer and smoother. Alas, laziness eventually won out and I stopped using it. Though if I were to buck up my body moisturising ideas again I would definitely reach for this product.
This moisturiser is a great hydrating one that will leave your skin feeling smooth and smelling great. Although i do love this moisturiser, i prefer a gradual tanner moisturiser in the Summer months, but this is a perfect alternative in those Winter months when your skin is feeling dry and scaly.
Comes in a great big bottle (621ml) that range in price from $8-$10 (look for the specials at the supermarkets), lasts an incredibly long time (lastest me all Winter) and is great value for money.
The bottle is appealing and they come in some great smelling flavours. Packed with vitamins and minerals makes this one a goodie. Non-greasy, and won't leave your skin feeling sticky like some other moisturisers do.
I really recommend this moisturiser to all girls wanting smooth, healthy, soft skin.
Tips: Rub over your body after a shower at night, and wake up with smooth, soft skin in the morning
Although not a huge fan of St Ives products I wanted to purchase a nice smelling body lotion in my groceries. So in the end I came away with the Coconut Milk and Orchid Extract. I love the smell of this lotion but what I wasn't expecting was the fact that I couldn't pump it out of the bottle!! SERIOUSLY!! This stuff is so darn thick it just would not pump out (after about 15mins i gave up) I removed the pump and had to squeeze the bottle to get the lotion out!! I'm not sure if its just my bottle or this has happened to others? The lotion is so thick, but it does go onto my skin really nicely and soaks in and leaves my skin feeling silky soft and of course I love the fragrance. Its just a pain having to remove the pump every time i want to use it cos one reason i purchased it was it had a convenient pump which turned out to be not so convenient after all!
Tips: You may want to try out the pump to ensure it works before you leave the store haha!
I have really dry skin on my shins - especially in summer! This moisturiser is so light yet so effective at hydrating my skin and making it smooth and soft. The scent is also a bonus! Once one of these bottles lasted me almost a year! So a little really does go a long way. This is my go to moisturiser as I know that it works for me
I am addicted to the Oatmeal Shea. It smells to die for and actually soaks into the skin pretty quickly leaving it soft and smooth. Vitamin E is also another favourite for summer, because if you get a little sun burnt it relieves the skin making it cool down and puts the moisture back into it.
Tips: Use straight after a shower. It's AMAZING on the legs after you have shaved <3
I use this as an all over body moisturiser. It smells nice, the pump action makes it simple to get into so it's fast to use. It's great for my sensitive skin, I didn't get any rashes. It absorbs quickly and made my skin feel more hydrated. I would definitely buy this again,
Tips: Buy from the supermarket.
I used to use this for years, from my teens right through until my late 20's! It smells great, isn't sticky, and generally made me skin feel good especially after shaving.
Its light enough, that I can put on stockings or pantyhose right after using it with it sticking. I also used to use it as a leave in conditioner, well before hair treatments became popular.
Tips: Try putting it through your hair as a hair treatment overnight, it makes it feel super soft and shiny!
