Dove Pro Age Body Cream Oil

Advantages: Nice smell, it works
Disadvantages: None

...I really like the Dove range of beauty products and use quite a lot of their offerings, deodorant, soap etc so when I was looking for a new body cream/hand cream I went straight to the Dove products. I was looking for a fairly thick, rich cream as I have had really dry hands recently so I decided upon the Dove Pro Age Body Cream Oil. It had a label on the top saying that it had a rich cream-oil formula so I thought this would be perfect. From looking at their website, www.dove.co.uk I found out a bit more about their Dove Pro*Age Range. They are quoted as saying, "Dove believes beauty has no age limit. That's why we've developed Dove Pro*age - a range of skin, deodorant and haircare products designed to give your skin and hair what it needs right now. Each product contains real, active ingredients to help bring out the best in you...

Review of Dove Pro-Age Body Cream Oil

FCUK Polished Body Cream: A smoothing body cream.

Advantages: Great pot,nice colour product, applies well and sinks in fast, leaves my skin soft.
Disadvantages: The scent can be overpowering.

...FCUK Polished Whipped Bodycream is provided in a circular plastic tub which is tinted pink with a black screw top lid which is easily removed. Once removed I can see the 'whipped bodycream' within and it is a very light coffee coloured cream. I am immediately hit by the scent of this cream as soon as I open the pot and it is a fairly nice scent which I think is predominantly the almond oil and the added vanilla. It is very nice but I think too much of this is a little overpowering. To use I just apply to my towel dried skin after a bath or shower and it sinks in to my body very easily with just a slight bit of rubbing required. I don't need to use much of this at all as a little definitely goes a long way. It makes my body lovely and scented and my skin deliciously smooth. I do find that my skin feels smooth for the day and it...

Review of FCUK Polished Whipped Body Cream

Peachy Cream,Big Body Butter.

Advantages: Lovely smell,hydrates your skin
Disadvantages: Doesnt absorb very fast

...'Soap and Glory Peachy Cream Big Body Butter' is a body butter that promises to revitalise,hydrate,soften and smooth the skin. I got mine from Boots for 9.50p for 300ml and now i'm completely obsessed with the range! It really smells of Peaches and Cream and apparantly contains Cocoa Butter,Orange,Lemon,Bilberry Skin Smoothers and Shea Butter....and not forgetting Peach Oil! This is a great list of ingredients,as we all now the softening properties that Cocoa Butter and Shea Butter have. The packaging: The packaging is really eye catching,its a baby peach round sturdy tub,with a blue lid. True to Soap and Glorys style of presentation,the packaging is full of brightly coloured writing,almost similar to that of a newspaper headline. The lid says 'Soap and Glory' in the middle,with a darker in colour shade of Peach saying 'Big...

Review of Soap & Glory Peachy Cream Body Butter

Avent body indulgence cream

Advantages: easy to apply and not over-priced
Disadvantages: hard to locate places to buy it

...I love this cream! Having used it in my first pregnancy and found it really gentle on my already sensitive skin I am using it again this time. It's more liquid than some of the other creams for stretch marks etc so it goes on really nicely. My only problem has been buying more of it.....boots don't seem to be stocking it anymore, and I have only found it as part of a set in mothercare......I hope I can buy some more before it runs out!! It is mildly scented, and it hasn't made my eczema flare up, so that is an added bonus!! My daughter loves rubbing it into my tummy, so it is also an invaluable tool in bonding between her and her baby sister!...

Review of Avent Indulgent Body Cream

Eight Hour Cream

Advantages: Only need to use a tiny amount so lasts for years!
Disadvantages: None

...This cream comes in a tube and initially seems quite expensive (when I bought my last tube it cost £17). It states that it is for use on chapped or weather burned skin ? basically for use anywhere on the body. It is a brilliant lip salve ? it may seem expensive but I can?t remember the last time I bought a tube ? it must be at least 2 years ago. The cream never goes off and lasts for ages as you only need to use the tiniest amount each time. Another thing it is very good for is when you have a sore red nose during a cold. It soothes and fixes dry skin extremely quickly and in my mind is great value for money....

Review of Elizabeth Arden 8 Hour Cream

Superdrug Vitamin E Body Cream

Advantages: Cheap, moisturises, nice smell, leaves skin soft and smooth
Disadvantages: Very runny, takes a while to soak in

...Moisturisers... it's a minefield out there. There are 50p ones and there are £30 ones - should you go for one with AHA's? Maybe UVA/B protection? Should I switch to a lotion in summer or a moisturising spray? In fact, what's the difference between SPF and UVA protection? Back to basics, back to basics.... I used to use Palmer's Cocoa Body Butter religiously for about six months, but I finally got sick of the smell and went in search for a new body lotion... I bought Superdrug Vitamin E All Over Cream, for £1.99 in well, Superdrug obviously. It comes in a huge clear plastic pot, with a screw on lid, containing 475ml of the stuff. It sounds quite cheap looking but it does look quite classy and won't look too bad on your bathroom shelf! It is incredibly cheap, so I wasn't expecting a lot! There is an offer right now, any two...

Review of Superdrug Vitamin E All Over Body Cream

intensive moisturizing body treatment,handy for holidays

Advantages: easily absorbed
Disadvantages: pricey

...As a fan of the original E.A eight hour cream (the pink gel) I tried this body cream with interest. It has a very similar slightly lemony scent but is not as strong as the pink all purpose gel. It goes on very easily and leaves the skin feeling very soft and moisturized and hydrated and leaves a slight scent on the skin. the tube is a handy size to take on holiday and would be very good to sooth skin after being in the sun. It is not at all greasy so could be used straight before getting dressed without worrying about getting it on your clothes. although called 8 hour cream i am not convinced it would last that long on the skin and I think it is a bit pricey to use all over the body though okay for dry parts as needed Elizabeth Arden 8hr Cream 50ml - http://www.beautycounterdirect.co.uk/elizabeth-arden-8-hour-intensive-body...

Review of Elizabeth Arden 8 Hour Cream

8hr cream that really sinks in

Advantages: easily absorbed, noticed a difference straight away moisturizing for 8 hrs
Disadvantages: bit pricey depending on where you buy from

...Elizabeth Arden eight hour cream ?intensive body moisturizing treatment. Smooth over body daily? What does it do? The claims of this body cream are to leave the skin soft and luxurious for 8 hours long. They say that it absorbs quickly and deeply giving a very intense moisture saturation. Especially good for and reverses the appearance of dry flaky skin. This cream has won THE BEAUTY INSIDERS AWARDS verdict The 1.7 oz tube that I have is not really that big, and for the amount I used on my dry legs and arms its not going to last that long. On opening the tube I found that the cream is actually very thick, nice though and soothing when rubbing it into my skin. It had a pleasant scent to it but I couldn?t quite put my finger on what it was, maybe citrus lemon. The cream sunk into my skin immediately, and because I...

Review of Elizabeth Arden 8 Hour Cream

The Body Shop Almond Daily Hand & Nail Cream

Advantages: It seems to help improve my nails.
Disadvantages: It makes my palms feel slightly sticky.

...The Body Shop Almond Oil Daily Hand and Nail Cream, I can?t remember buying this and I have a smaller than usual size tube (50ml). I think it must have been free when I bought something else. I have had this hand and nail cream for months and months in my kitchen next to the sink , I use it when my hands are feeling dry and in need of some extra moisture . The cream feels quite light when you first put it on your hands and has a light but distinctive smell of sweet almonds. Although the cream disappears very quickly in to the skin on the back of my hands leaving them looking and feeling very smooth and soft, my palms have an unusual slightly sticky feel. I can feel my hand almost sticking to the computer mouse as I use it now. Before, this is what has put me off using it more often. But I have been using this hand cream more...

Review of The Body Shop Almond Daily Hand & Nail Cream

Superdrug Vitamin E All Over Body Cream

Advantages: great price
Disadvantages: none

...A fab product, great price and great smell. On top of the fact that it leaves skin so silky, moisturised and revitalised it also clears up my psoriassis whenever I have an outbreak. Although I no longer live in the UK - my dad sends regular supplies!! I have tried many different brands of body moisturisers cheap and expensive and this is the only cream that I cant live without. It applies easily, soaks into the skin very quickly and leaves the skin feeling fesh not oily or sticky like some other bodycreams. The whole range of Superdrug Vitamin E products for the skin are fantastic and I also particularly like their yey make-up remover. For sensitive skin - this has to be one the best ranges of skincare products that I have come accross. It works brilliantly as an aftersun and speeds up the process of healing scars and other...
