This is the second installment of my Skin Cravings review. The first post was about Skin Cravings Scrub Me Pretty Body Scrub, which you can read about here. This lotion set was again part of the loot I got from Skin Cravings.
Skin Cravings Smooth Over Body Lotion moisturizes the skin leaving it soft and smooth. It is available in 2 variants: Strawberry Kisses and Choc' Mint Kisses.
Since I like mint chocolate, I used this one first!The Ingredients:
The Packaging:
- The bottom part is soft and can be squeezed for when you want to dispense some product.
- I like the packaging because it's very hygienic, but it would be better if this lotion came in a tube so it would be more handy and we nothing will be left at the bottom of the bottle.
The Product:
- The scent smells just like minty chocolates!
- A day after using this lotion, I could not contain my cravings anymore and bought a pack of Andes Mint Parfait Thins for myself. Haha!
- It has a light, non-greasy feel.
- Since it's light, I feel that it is not moisturizing enough for my very dry skin.
- Naturally, it's not moisturizing enough for dry and cracked heels.
- I use this at night before I sleep, and in the morning when I shower, I can feel this washing off from my skin, especially when I first wash my hands. It makes me think that this lotion has been just sitting on my skin.
- This is recommended for normal skin that needs basic moisturizing.
Others might appreciate its light texture more than I do. But in spite of its light texture, I find myself using this everyday because of its delicious scent. I can't wait to use the Strawberry Kisses body lotion together with its matching body scrub. I can almost imagine it's sweet, fruity scent by just thinking about it!
The Price: P240.00 for P250ml
Available at Landmark, Rustans, and Shopwise.
Have you tried Skin Cravings Smooth Over Body Lotion? Which variant do you prefer?
Love,
Helen

ReplyDeletebut yeah, it can really induce food cravings! lol :D
That's so cute! I guess they're really living up to their name.
ReplyDeleteAll the variants of Skin Cravings you've posted all sound so yummy.
@Charlene: I saw these too in PCX, not so sure though with Watsons and SM. I hope the strawberry variant will smell like strawberry shake. :)
ReplyDelete@Jackie: They smell a lot like real food. :)
Cute! I want to try them! I hope someday when I bought this I won't eat them haha! good review, it just the downside that it doesn't absorb by the skin, I wonder why. Hope to try them someday :)
ReplyDelete@Onika: Do try it and let me know how you find it. :)
ReplyDeletehahah I like the 'warning' note.
ReplyDeleteI'm not into lotion coz most of the ones I've tried left a greasy feeling. I'll try to look for this one. Thanks for the review.
By the way Helen, do you have reviews for moisturizers?
@Jill: Thanks for reading this post. :) No kidding, this one really smelled like Andes chocolates! I have a few reviews on moisturizers and I hope it helps.
