REVIEW ON THE YARDLEY LONDON ENGLISH ROSE MOISTURIZING BODY LOTION.

Hello ladies, hope you are all doing good. its been raining crazily for past one week in Chennai. whether is getting colder everyday. schools and colleges has been declared holiday for past few days or since diwali i should say.. Chennai is making history basically by having heaviest rainfall of all time. ;-)

         So yeah lets get into todays topic. Today am gonna review a body lotion that am currently loving. It is by YARDLEY LONDON. I have dry skin. Even though i have few staple body lotions or moisturizers , I try lots of them just to know what i like or what works well for me. so i ended up picking this from a supermarket.



PRICE : 99 for 100 ml

SHELF LIFE : 24 months.

WHAT DOES THE PRODUCT SAYS ?

with over 200 years expertise, yardley london selects only the finest ingredients for its products. this luxurious lotion comes enriched with active vitamin b3 and c, and freshly plucked roses from original english gardens. an effective anti oxidants, vitamiv cretains youthfulness of skin, while b3 removes marks, making skin fairer. among with the timeless scents of romantic roses.

INGREDIENTS

water,glyceryl stearate, dimethicone,isopropyl myristate,perfume,cyclopentasiloxine,cyclohexasiloxine, glycerine,palmitic acid, stearic acid, ascrbyl, tetraisopalmitate, bht, carnbomer, cetearyl alcol, ceteareth20, cetyl alcohol, sodium hyaluronate, hydrogenated olive oil, niacinamide, polysorbate 20, disodium edta, sodium hydroxide, phenoxyethanol, methylisothiazolinone.

OMG thats a lot of chemicals. :-/ typing the ingredient list is the hardest thing ever. :-(

MY THOUGHTS ON THE PRODUCT 

It comes in a silk like smooth plastic bottle with a pump up mechanism. i find it cute but not travel friendly. It smells amaizing like roses. It smells exactly like yardley english rose body spray. obviously ;-) coz this one is the matching body lotion for that body spray. It comes in a 200ml bigger bottle too. and it retails for 180 rs . They have few other variants as well. since i loved this lotion,  i bought sandalwood body lotion and musk body lotion from this range yesterday. the fragrance stays on me for 2 hours.

 It says it lightens and moisturizes the skin. But i do not find any lightening actions going on. But it moisturizes the skin really well. I swear this product gives a silky texture to my skin. It lasts for a whole day. :-)


That is how much product you get on a single pump. I use three to four pumps of this lotion to moisturise my entire body.


It has a really nice silicon like texture to it. It is neither too runny nor too thick. Perfect lotion consistency. It gets absorbed into the skin quickly .

PROS 

1. gives silky smooth texture to the skin
2. affordable
3. smells like roses.
4. pump mechanism is hygienic .
5. moisturizes the skin really well .
6. the effect lasts for a whole day.
7. it gets absorbed quickly into the skin.

CONS

1. The ingredient list. it kinda scares me. :-(
2. it is not a travel friendly packaging. but i really dont mind coz i have travel size mini bottles to carry my lotions with me .
3. may not suit extremely dry skinned people.

OVERALL THOUGHTS

It is a really good body lotion for the price you pay. makes the skin smooth. the effect is longlasting. it is good if you have dry skin. but it is not going to work for people with extreme dry skin especially on colder months.

MY RATINGS   4/5

Thank you
