When it comes to moisturising my body I do tend to favour body butters as they just feel
so luxurious and tend to be more fragrant than a typical body lotion but that being said
I do have a massive soft spot for Jergens Aloe Body Lotion which has to be one of the freshest
scented body products on the market!
With that in mind when asked if I would test the newest additions to the Jergens line up
I jumped at the chance to see if I could be swayed from my old favourite!
I was sent two large tubes in the Cocoa Butter and Daily Moisture varieties,
now I know not everyone is happy with Jergens image over haul but I can't really see
anything worth complaining about, gone is the old leaf design but pretty much everything else is the same.
The tubes are large and have a flip top that you do have to ensure is securely in place
as due to the thin texture of the lotions they will leak and spill everywhere is left open,
not speaking from experience at all...nope not at all!
As most will be sick to the back teeth of hearing but I am in fact allergic to Cocoa Butter
which is more than annoying as it smells divine and is one of the best body moisturisers available.
So once more I have had to out source this product to my good friend for testing purposes
and she pretty much swears by it for dry, flaky skin on the body.
This particular version of Cocoa Butter is thick yet easily absorbed into the skin
and feels light, soothing and hydrating without leaving behind any yucky residue or irritating sensitive skins.
My friend assures me that this will be her to go to body moisturiser and has actually bought another bottle
to take away on holiday with her next week!
The one I have been testing is the Daily Moisture version which is a light and fresh scented body lotion,
this is slightly more thinner in texture than the above mentioned Cocoa Butter but once applied after
a warm shower it cools and soothes the skin all the while moisturising.
I find this to be particularly great on my legs after shaving or waxing as it restores lost moisture
but cools and calms the skin which can often be much needed.
If you require a light body moisturiser that absorbs into the skin then this is the one to go for!

Aww thank you so much, I do worry that I tend to ramble so I'm glad to hear that you don't think that is the case :) thanks again!
DeleteI've never really tried Jergens but I do like the overhaul. I would love to try them one day
ReplyDeleteFor the price they are very hard to beat :)
DeleteThese look like lovely moisturisers :)

They really are :)
DeleteI reviewed the Cocoa Butter one a few weeks ago - I love using it on my legs!xx
ReplyDeleteI bet it is amazing! I love the scent but it's one of the few things that just doesn't agree with my skin sadly.
DeleteI love the Jergens Cocoa Butter, it smells so good and keeps my skin nice and hydrated :) x
ReplyDeleteIt's such a yummy scent :)
DeleteThe daily moisture is my absolute go to lotion. I love the consistency, scent, and how easy it sinks in. over in the states I've seen bottles with pump tops and flip caps, so no squeeze bottles which i'm glad to report.
ReplyDeleteI couldn't agree more :) I've seen some of the pump tops which I will pick up next as I hate when I spill things haha :)
DeleteI liked my old Jergens cream because it smelled so yummy. I wonder if the new ones smell the same? My sis was a big fan of Jergens but is a bit upset that it's no longer natural and paraben free. I wonder what happened... xx
