Marks and Spencer Blissful Strawberry Moisturizing Hand and Body Lotion Review

Hello Girls,

Today I am going to review Marks and Spencer Blissful Strawberry Moisturizing Hand and Body lotion. I am for everything strawberries and I bought this one when I went shopping with my sister. I was completely taken in when I saw it on the shelves in the Marks and Spencer’s outlet at the mall featured along with the other strawberry line products such as shower gel, deodorants and body butters. I picked it up since I love experimenting with lotions. It was cost efficient, had a good quantity and was pink! Need I say more? I loved their packaging and I was eager to try it out. Now let’s see how it works, shall we?

Product Description

The product promises the experience of daily luxury with the extracts from nature based ingredients. The lotion is light and easily absorbing and is enriched with the extract of strawberries that would leave your skin delicately scented.

Direction for Use

Use this lotion to massage gently all over your hands and body to help maintain soft and smooth skin. Simply, lather up your skin and enjoy its delicate and absolutely divine mild fruity smell.

Shelf Life

The shelf life is of 1.5 years.

Price & Quantity

Costs INR 299 for 300ml. It can be bought from Marks and Spencer stores and outlets.

Skin Type

Not mentioned. Generally suitable for all skin types. Not recommended for facial use.

Packaging

It is a very cute mid-sized cylindrical plastic bottle with a metallic neck and a pump on top. Since it is transparent, the cream inside is visible making the bottle light pink and even more attractive. There are also drawings of strawberries on the bottle which I think is really pretty.

Texture

The texture is light and has an almost serum like consistency but it doesn’t flow or stray from the palm. From outside it looks like a strawberry mousse but when pumped out, it turns into a delicate cream which gets absorbed quickly and leaves a very strong but gorgeous fragrance of strawberries and creams on the skin which fades away after some hours.

My Experience with Marks and Spencer Blissful Strawberry hand and body lotion

It is my favourite body lotion at the moment as I am an ardent lover of strawberries and I always buy products which have strawberry fragrance or extracts in it. I use it everyday and I love how quickly it gets absorbed and leaves its wonderful fragrance behind. It moisturizes my skin and leaves it feeling cool, soft and supple. However I do not think this moisturizer is strong enough to handle the winter months but this definitely rocked my summer with its fruity smell and its lovely cool watery texture which didn’t feel greasy or heavy on the skin.

Rating

4/5

Whether I would recommend this product again:

Yes, I would definitely recommend this product to all the strawberry lovers out there. Worth a try if you like the mild and refreshing fragrance of strawberries.
