The Body Shop Vitamin E Moisturisers- Review.

Happy Tuesday everyone- hope you all had a relaxing Bank Holiday weekend!


Today I'm going to be reviewing the Body Shop Vitamin E Moisturisers. As I mentioned in my recent Beauty Haul, I had heard great things about the Vitamin E Range from non other than the skincare Queen, Caroline Hirons. I tend to follow Mrs Hirons advice on anything skincare, so when she recommended a more affordable skincare range I was all over it.
So far I've really been enjoying these, I picked up the Illuminating Day Cream which has a slight shimmer too it (not too much) which I LOVE. It makes me feel so glowy and fabulous when I put it on in the mornings, and I think it would look beautiful on no makeup days. I find that its really nice to apply makeup over, not greasy or tacky at all. It has a much lighter and runnier consistency than I'm used to in a moisturiser but I actually quite like this for daytime, especially in summer.
I also got the Nourishing Night Cream which is also a winner in my books, This is super-thick which makes it feel really nourishing as it claims to be. After using this with my Kiehl's Midnight Recovery Oil I wake up with really softy and plumped up skin.
I also really like the scent of both of these, its light and sweet and kind of reminds me of the Johnson's Baby Lotion. I would highly recommend these to anyone with dry skin, mines been so dry this year but these have really helped to improve the look and texture of my skin!

The Body Shop Grapefruit Shower Gel & Body Butter

Hey, guess what? Up until now I've never tried one of the famous Body Shop Body Butters- such a bad beauty blogger. That was until my rather lovely boyfriend surprised me with the Pink Grapefruit Shower Gel and Body Butter, I think it must have been all the times I've dragged him in so I could have a sniff of this stuff.

The smell of these is definitely the best bit, its a real love/hate thing, I adore the scent of grapefruit, its fresh, zingy and sweet! These aren't just mildly scented, they're very strong, so if you're a bit iffy about the scent I wouldn't advise you to get them as even after I get out of the shower I find the whole house smells like grapefruits!

The shower gel in particular is gorgeous, I'm a morning shower kinda gal so I find the fresh scent of this really wakes me up and makes me feel great first thing!

There is so much hype over  these body butters that I really hoped I would like this, I wasn't disappointed! The scent is so strong and I find it really lasts throughout the day, something I like in a body lotion. Its very thick and creamy so it does take a while to apply and the only downside with this is that I find it takes forever to dry. The first time I used it I think I applied too much- even an hour after application my skin felt quite sticky! I think the key here is that a little goes a long way!

Over all, I was really impressed with both of these products and they are both something I would repurchase, especially for summer!
