I love a good body moisturiser! I always moisturise after every shower, and I'd like to get into the habit of moisturising before bed but I keep forgetting and haven't got into the habit yet! I'm always on the lookout for new lotions that will moisturise and soften my skin. It's not particularly dry, but any little bit of dryness or marks show up so easily because I'm so pale! I'm prone to redness which drives me mad, so I moisturise to protect, condition and nourish my skin. Jason are a natural skincare brand that I've never really tried before; since we're heading into winter, I wanted to try something with a warm, lovely scent, so the energizing vanilla seemed like a good idea!
The first thing you notice about this product is the smell. It is SO STRONG. Like, crazy strong! And I love a good scent, it's usually the first thing I look at when purchasing a product, but this is reaaaaally strong! It smells like cake and sugar initially, but I put this on my hands and 2 hours later I could still smell it wafting up - a bit overpowering and made me feel sick after a while! However, the actual cream it really lovely, not too thin or thin and absorbed really easily into the hands. I haven't dared use it all over my body - if the smell is overpowering on my hands, imagine having it all over?! I got a couple colleagues to try it out and the majority hated the smell, unfortunately. I personally think it smells nice, it's just too much! In small doses it's nice, so I think I'll continue to use this as a hand cream, but there's no way I can use it all over! Meli X
