Beauty Must Haves: Palmer's Cocoa Butter Lotion and body oil gel with SPF15

Hello chicas!

 

Every summer i switch from my usual routine of thick body butters and creams to my staple of Palmer's Cocoa Butter. It is the perfect product IMO; it keeps you well moisturized, provides a nice subtle healthy sheen to the skin AND helps fade any little scars you may have. All around winner right? The only thing it was missing was sun protection. Well guess what? The folks at Palmer's finally wised up and added SPF 15 to the product. YaaaY! Not only did they add it to the skin cream but they also added it to the body oil gel.

 

$8.50 each at CVS

 

Now i am not a big user of body oil but i used to use Neutrogena's body oil when i was younger (gaahh i feel soo old! :( ) and i liked how nice and shimmery it made my skin. The only drawback was the oil got everywhere even after you rubbed it in. The benefit of the oil gel is that it absorbs easier and leaves less of a residue on the skin. Much less of a hassle to deal with.

All in all between the 2 i am definitely set for the summer. Though they coud have a higher SPF, any SPF is better then nothing. And they both smell soo yummy, this guy in a store turned and said " you smell nice, like cookies".

Be ready for sugary compliments if you buy these products ladies.

  2. lol i know, i was like huh? i didnt know what he was talking about because i couldn't smell it any more, but apparently it gives off a subtle scent of cookies for hours. Last week my manager at work walked past me, then he came back and said what are you wearing? and i said umm.. lotion? and he literally grabbed my arm and put his nose on it and inhaled! lol!

    He is extremely weird so i wasn't freaked out by it. And the VP of my company walked in my room saying who smells so good? i like it! And he is a big cookie fiend, we call him cookie monster because he is obsessed with cookies
