Body Shop Cranberry Body Butter

Friends who know me well know that I am a big fan of lotion. Any lotion. I can't leave the house without applying lotion, its like a layer of protection I need before I can wear my clothes on. LOL

I think I have stressed enough on the importance of lotion in my previous post on Redwin Sorbolene lotion.

So among all the body butter that I have tried, I truly list The Body Shop Cranberry Body Butter to be the best of all.

I love the smell. The texture. The oiliness. The long lasting fragrance.

But I hate that you can only get it during limited periodIt is a special season body butter. You can only purchase it during Christmas time. So I can only anticipate for its arrival during year end. So cham.


RM69.90

But lucky me cause the Body Shop sales this year is like an answer to my dreams. They have my favourite body butter on sale for 50%. FIFTY PERCENT OFF! I went crazy seeing that. I grabbed a basket and instantly placed 6 tubes into it! HAHAHAAHAHAHA. 


My crazy shopping spree
6 tubes for the price of 3 tubes!
Muahahahaa. HAPPINESS MAX
My boyfriend thinks I am crazy and he said I am never having the right to complain about being broke in front of him. CISSSS. But he is so lovely cause when he went back to England last December, he bought me the shower gel and the body scrub *happy*


So the reason why I love this Cranberry body butter so much is because of its smell and texture. Very smooth to apply. It can be a bit too oily for some people but I like it. Because I am always in air conditioned room so the oiliness of the body butter helps to keep my skin moisturized throughout the day.

TA DAAAAH! Oily and protected thigh LOL
Can see the oiliness of it on my skin. But once you are used to it, it won't be a problem. It actually makes you feel very moisturized and protected for the whole day! I applied it every morning and when I shower every night at about 10pm, you can still feel the body butter as the water runs through your body. POWDERFUL RIGHT?


Get your skin protected and smell great at the same time! Body Shop Cranberry Body Butter is the Answer to it!

Redwin Sorbolene Lotion

I LOVE SKINCARE PRODUCTS! Especially lotion and body butter.

They are a necessity to me. I can't live without them. I can't even walk out of the house without applying it. Its like a layer of protection I need to have if not I feel NAKED.
  
So my friend who is residing in Melbourne gave me this lotion and told me that it is good. Its from Redwin. She told me that her lips were parched when she first got to Aussie and the doctor recommended this cream called SORBOLENE. 

Little did she know that it is actually lotion and not some special cream in a small tube. So you can roughly know how non-chemical the lotion is because it is safe to apply on the lips!

Here is how the lotion looks like - Sorbolene from Redwin!

Front view
Back view - can even be used as shaving cream and makeup removew =O


I applied it the same day I received the lotion. and I LOVE IT. The texture is not oily yet when you applied on your skin, you can instantly feel how moisture it is. It just absorbs into your skin. Your skin wont feel oily or sticky after the application. It just feels normal but PROTECTED and MOISTURIZED!


So here is abit of the lotion on my thigh.

Applied it in circular motion because it will absorb easily into the skin. Haha, I editted this picture and it looks damn bright.



Here is the original picture. #nofilter #noedit The lotion is very watery and easy to apply.



TADAAAAAA. Skin is smooth and soft and protected!! I like saying protected because that is how I feel about lotion. Its a layer of protection!



I went online and did some read up about this lotion and OMG the price is not even expensive! You know the most common lotion we can find in guardian and watsons costs about RM18-RM30. For eg this Johnson & Johnson lotion :-




This lotion costs about RM18-RM20 for a 400ml bottle. Guess how much Redwin's Sorbolene costs?


From myshopping.com.au
FREAGGIN AUD 4.99! Its RM15.00 for 1 LITRE bottle!!!!!!! SO CHEAP!!!!!!


I am going to buy 5 of this when I go to Australia this year. *remind self to upsize luggage*


For those who have friends in Australia, try to bribe your friend in smuggling one back. LOL smuggling in a joking way ok, it is not illegal to smuggle lotion. HAHA. Y so serious?


Check out other products from Redwin as well! My friend bought their hand cream in Singapore and its heavenly therapy to the hands!



oooh my favourite~~~~
