Battle of Body Lotions

July 19, 2014

Welcome to another edition of round ups! Here I have body lotions. I know I used to have a ton of bottles lying around but I’ve really tried to slim down to only keep what I want to use up.

If you are interested to see what’s my current body lotions and their info, read on! Also, as a side note, I also provided the first 5 ingredients for each body lotion inspired after doing my review on the Red Flower body lotion that you can read here.

1) The Body Shop Body Butter 50mL
Scent: Ginger Sparkle
Where did I get it: As a Christmas Present
Cost: —
How long have I had it: 1.5 years
How much have I used: 80%- Edit: Just finished last month
First 5 ingredients: Water, shea butter, glycerin, cetearyl alcohol, glyceryl stearate

 

2) Bath and Body Works Body Lotion 88mL
Scent: Paris Amour
Where did I get it: BBW boxing day- Haul
Cost: $3
How long have I had it: 6 months
How much have I used: 1%, haven’t used it much
First 5 ingredients: Water, glycerin, petrolatum, cetyl alcohol, cetearyl alcohol
3) Bath and Body Works Hand Cream 59mL
Scent: Winter Candy Apple
Where did I get it: BBW boxing day- Haul
Cost: $1.5
How long have I had it: 6 months
How much have I used: 10%. The scent is too strong for me as a hand cream and also leaves a weird feeling on my hand. So I’ve decided to use it as a body lotion.
First 5 ingredients: Water, mineral oil, cyclopentasiloxane, stearic acid, glyceryl stearate
4) Bath and Body Works Triple Moisture Body Cream 266g
Scent: Bali Mango
Where did I get it: BBW semi annual sale- Haul
Cost: $4
How long have I had it: 1 year
How much have I used: 5%. I got this because so many youtubers say they prefer this formula over the original body lotion but I haven’t had a chance to use this.

First 5 ingredients: Water, glycerin, capric triglyceride, glyceryl stearate, fragrance

Different consistencies. L to R: body lotion, hand cream, body cream
5) Fruits and Passion Body Cream 350mL
Scent: Grapefruit Guava
Where did I get it: As a birthday present
Cost: Free
How long have I had it: At least 4 years :/
How much have I used: 25%.
First 5 ingredients: Water, glyceryl stearate, glycerin,  octyldodecanol, sweet almond oil
6) Red Flower Moisturizing Body Lotion 350mL
Scent: Icelandic Moonflower
Where did I get it: From Red Flower
Cost: Sent for review
How long have I had it: 2 weeks!
How much have I used: 2%. I’ve been using this alot since I got it! The scent was a bit weird at first but now I’m loving it.

First 5 ingredients: Water, aloe leaf, safflower seed oil, vegetable wax, apricot kernel oil

 

Overall, I think I’m going to try and stay away from Bath and Body works lotions in the future. Their packaging and sale are so attractive though gah! I do notice that drugstores also have a lot of interesting body lotions so I might venture there. But it will probably be a year until I finish my current stash!

What’s your favorite brand for body lotions? Do you have a stash of it at home? Or do you just keep one or two at a time?

🫎🍁 Don't miss this LIMITED EDITION release from @t 🫎🍁 Don't miss this LIMITED EDITION release from @tatcha! Inspired by the changing fall colors of the Japanese maple, this beautiful kissu lip mask now has a berry red tint. I love the moisturizing squalane and Japanese peach extracts. My dry lips have never felt so hydrated and soft. Definitely give this a try if you're looking for a smooth and plump lip with a hint of color. 

🍮 The packaging is also stunning with the maple motifs on the lid that makes this display worthy in any bathroom or vanity!

It has been a minute since posting 😅 the first two It has been a minute since posting 😅 the first two weeks with a newborn have been full of challenges and adjustments. But it's nice to take a break and go through some of my beauty products as a break 🤭.

Here are my top three face creams for the changing weather especially if you have dry skin!

Swatched from left to right: clarins, drunk elephant, aestura 

👌  moisturizing face creams for dry skin

Clarins Extra Firming: I love the day and night version of this cream. The night is even more heavy duty and creamy so sometimes I use the day version only 💫

It's got a beautiful scent and amazing collagen technology to plump the skin!

Aestura Atobarrier Lotion: this is a newer korean brand thats available now at Sephora. Part of the amorepacific family, so you know it'll be good!

The packaging is very simple and unassuming but I love how this soothes the skin! Its quite lightweight in texture but I used this when I was sick and it saved my nose after blowing into tissue a gazillion times a day! 🩵

Drunk Elephant Bora Barrier: im always a big fan of drunk elephant. This one is my favorite face cream from the brand. I love the pump packaging and this is perfect if you want hydration and barrier support!
Happy one week to our sweet pea! 🫛 It has been a l Happy one week to our sweet pea! 🫛
It has been a long week but we cant wait to grow with you 🌟
