St Ives Body Lotion

I have bought this 3 times after running out of the previous because I love it!

My husband uses it too so I know its good haha - he has really dry hands so he squeezes this on them. I use this all over my arms & legs and also works on dry feet. Its soft and gentle on my skin, leaves it feeling moisturised & smooth. There is a light scent to it which I like, its hardly there so its good for someone who doesnt like wearing scented stuff during the day.

I love how big the bottle is, it certainly lasts. Although I do like the pump style its a tad annoying when it comes to the last bits of the product, it doesnt pump out so you have to knock it out & unscrew the top.

This started out as my go to, mainly because of the size of the bottle! If something is good, I love not having to worry about constantly replacing tiny bottles - especially with something you use all over your body like this lotion. So that considered, the packaging is perfect for me. It has a pump lid so easy to use and just massive!

This moisturiser is thicker than other moisturisers I use. It's definitely a lotion. That means that when you're putting it on you can really feel as though it's on - I'll trust that you all know what I mean by that. Haha.

I love that it gives my skin a lot of moisturiser but it often sits atop my skin for quite a while so I tend not to use it just before bed or else I feel a little too sticky. Using it after the shower with time to spare to let it really sink in is when I prefer to use it because I really feel like then it has enough time to get to work!

I started using this brand of moisturiser when I was 18 and have done so until a couple of years ago. This moisturiser is great value for money and lasts a very long time. A great quick fix for dry skin, used mostly on my legs so cannot comment on other parts of the body. I have sensitive skin so using this straight after shaving my legs did not cause a reaction. After being more adventurous with my moisturisers I would say it is a product that moisturisers but doesn't really have the x factor.

I use this product daily after showering and have done for years. I often get compliments regarding the way my skin looks and feels. It could be due to moisturising daily with St Ives or my wonderful genes. :)

I tend to go for the Skin Renewing but now and the choose the vitamin E for a change.

Why I keep going back to St Ives body moisturiser: The dispenser is great, goes on smoothly and obsorbs swiftly, has a delicate refreshing scent that doesn't compete with my chosen fragrance for the day. My weight is often up and down but with minimal stretch marks. I am sure the daily moisturising with St Ives has something to do with that.

Price: Value for money.

Will be using this until the day I die! Hopefully a long way off!

The Skin Renewing lotion is honestly a holy grail product for me during the summer. I don't think this has SPF in it so I use this as an after sun lotion and this is definitely the best I have used. I dont expect much from a lotion but this one just absorbs like a dream. My skin feels full of life but at the same time it isn't greasy or oily like other lotions can do (nivea) and I NEVER PEEL with this! Try it if you haven't already <3 P.s. if you don't mind scents, this smells beautiful and fresh!

A very decent sized bottle with a pump with different varieties for their purposes of the skins requirements. I normally get Vitamin E for its all purpose of rehydration to the skin I always suffer from dry legs and arms but on my arms I also get oily so weird. What I love about this is the packaging it's a very decent size with a pump. Then the cream itself it isn't greasy at all nor is it thick it doesn't absorb instantly, but it does pentrate into the skin nonetheless. The fragrance of this cream is very subtle so it's ok for the sensitive skin & also post shaving there is no reaction to my skin. Some creams can make me flare up once applying after shaving & this cream doesn't.. Although in summer when applying during the hit weather you can sweat it of quite easily whilst applying. Why I say this is because I can still be hot and rushing after having a shower and therefore the cream slips of my skin. So I've found I need to cool down post shower then apply it so it can hydrate my skin appropriately. Once it's on the skin & absorbed it keeps my skin very hydrated& can last all day with a moist look and feel to my legs. I generally apply to my legs & my arms. My feet don't work well with this cream as theyre in need of intensive care from a foot cream.

This has defiantly lasted my a long time. I love that this is a pump bottle and I don't need to use too much. I find that it really does hydrate my dry skin and leaving it soft and smooth. It is not too greasy either which is awesome for straight out of the shower. The smell of this is really nice and it doesn't have an overly strong smell. The only down thing I don't like about this product is that when it reaches the near bottom you cant pump it out and its a mission to get the product out. Other then that I really do like this product.

This product does a decent job at moisturising, however there is nothing special. I use it on my legs after shaving and find my legs smooth afterwards. The smell is not bad, but not amazing either. As a whole the product is good but doesn't have anything special and other product do just as good of a job. The main thing it has going for it is the value in terms of the price. If you are looking for a moisturiser that does its job at a decent price then this will do.
