EcoStore Light Moisturising Body Lotion



Today I want to show you my absolute Holy Grail for body moisturiser! I've been using the Palmers Cocoa Butter for a while now but since that ran out last month, I've moved on to try other lovelies - which has led to me begin using the EcoStore Light Moisturising Body Lotion every morning and evening!

This one has very quickly become my absolute favourite body moisturiser - especially for my legs! 




What they say:

"A non-greasy formulation from the latest generation plant-based ingredients, to gently restore and replenish your skin without the use of nasty chemicals."

What I say:

Light? This is extremely light! There is absolutely no heaviness about this cream at all, and it's almost bordering on being a serum! It's so light on the skin and doesn't weigh me down.
Non-greasy? This is ridiculously non-greasy! This goes on so smoothly and soaks right into the skin as quick as you put it on! There's nothing greasy about this baby! Restore and replenish your skin?
Absolutely it does! This cream is ridiculously smooth and soothing on my skin (especially after shaving!) and like I said, soaks straight in so there's no greasy or clammy feeling afterwards! It also doesn't dry my skin out like some moisturisers do! No nasty chemicals?
If you don't really understand the ingredients listed, they've included a little description beside it. Example: "Aqua(Water) Simmondsia Chinensis Oil (Jojoba Oil)" the list goes on! You can check it out on their website also, where they also give you a list of nasty ingredients that are not included in their products, so you know exactly what to avoid in the future!




Of course, with any EcoStore product, it's 100% against Animal Cruelty! I absolutely love brands that include this, because it really does make all the difference! It's really not that hard to stop testing on animals!

EcoStore products are also made using natural ingredients, completely GE free!
(Also, as I mentioned in my review of the amazing Coconut Soap, our lovely friends from New Zealand have produced this range - a big plus for me!)




As you can see, the cream is so light and not heavy and thick at all! EcoStore product their moisturisers so that they are super concentrated, which means - you guessed it, my favourite saying - a little goes a long way!

The amount above is enough to cover both of my legs comfortably! I'd get at least four good squeezes out of my Cocoa Butter before I'd cover both legs!
I use this every morning and night and it still doesn't feel like I've used much at all of the 220ml bottle!

And before I finish off this lovely review of my new favourite, I needed to talk about the smell. How could I review something without ranting on and on about the smell!
The smell is amazing! This one smells of Rose and Cardamom but is extremely subtle! The blend is really unique and it makes it such a pleasure to use!

So overall, what did I think of this moisturiser?
Well if you didn't see me use the words Holy Grail, then - it's my Holy Grail! Perfect for after showering or shaving, or just to make your skin feel lovely!
