Final Comments:
This is the first body lotion that I've tried that is meant to be used overnight and promises to repair "a week's worth of damage" in one night.
As most of my readers know, I love a fast-absorbing lotion and this one isn't as fast-absorbing as some of my favourites. It's not greasy, but it's a little sticky and takes a little longer to be fully absorbed - which means that you need to apply this a little ahead of going to bed.
It has a nice, light scent (although I would have preferred something unscented).
Once I got used to applying it about 20 minutes before going to bed, I did find that after applying it to some really dry skin (the start of the cold weather is really hitting my skin hard), I woke up with skin that was pretty well moisturized so I can't complain about the effectiveness. From what I've experienced, this isn't a lotion I'll be using unless I'm using it for what it's for - overnight use.
At $7 CAD, you get a lot of product for a great price.

hey - thanks for the review. I think i'll have to pick up this product next time i get a new body moisturizer. My skin is SOOOO horrible in the winter and the dryness at night is wrecking havoc on my skin. $7 is a pretty awesome price point.
