Himalaya Herbals Cocoa Butter Intensive Body Lotion : Review

Hi Girls.

Am I the only one who is feeling that winter is bidding goodbye? I am just not ready for summers yet. Please God, make this winter season last little longer. I am just not done yet. Okay I will stop now, let’s hope God would listen.

Before the cold season is totally over, let me tell you about another Cocoa Butter body lotion. The lotion is from Himalaya Herbals, our very trusted brand. Himalaya Herbals is one of the oldest Indian brand with huge skin and hair care lines. Also, since his birth, I am using Himalaya’s baby products for Aarav. His skin and hair are healthy.

I have found that Cocoa Butter and Shea Butter are highly effective  in keeping dry skin moisturised and healthy. Winter makes my hands and body really dry, and I lean on to Cocoa Butter based products to keep it calm. So let me tell you what you can expect from the Cocoa Butter Lotion from Himalaya.

Ingredients

The key ingredients of this body lotion are Cocoa Butter & Wheat Germ Oil. Below is the complete list of all the ingredients.

Packaging

It comes in Himalaya’s signature white bottle with green cap packaging. There is graphical representation of cocoa beans getting submerged into cream, depicting the making of this lotion. There is also a cream version of this product which comes in tub packaging.

Colour, Texture & Smell

Even though the lotion is Cocoa Butter based, but it is not sticky or oily.  Once absorbed, there are oily finger stains on my laptop keyboard, only smooth, moisturised and sweet smelling skin. The colour of this lotion is something between off white and white.

My Experience

No matter how many body lotions I own, I still grab another if I like the packaging and the ingredients. I have something for Cocoa smell. This was another reason I picked this body lotion last year and loved using it. This year too, it made it’s way to my bathroom shelve.

The lotion contains really impressive ingredients. Cocoa Butter is known for it’s repairing and moisturising properties. Wheat Germ Oil is another wonderful ingredient which contains Vitamin E providing excellent anti-ageing properties t skin. My skin becomes really dry during winter and cries for heavy duty moisturization. Himalaya’s Cocoa butter body lotion really helps reviving my skin.  It definitely is an affordable and effective body lotion.

It gets easily absorbed, and is nothing like a heavy oil based body lotion. There is no oily or greasiness afterwords. The lotion is little thick but surprisingly gets absorbed really fast into the skin. It leaves skin moisturised and calm. Moisturised skin looks healthy and glowy. My skin stays moisturised for long hours. I do not need to re apply it until later in the evening. There is no stretchy feeling or dry lines. It does what it promises to do.

• Since the lotion is little thick it gets little tedious to take out the lotion out of the narrow  nozzle sometimes. Also it tends to get deposited within the nozzle and needs to be cleaned every now and then.
