Can you recommend a good body lotion

I highly recommend Superdrug Vitamin E Body Butter. Just the right consistency, and absorbs quickly. So, so good.

I like Nivea...lots of different versions of this but I am enjoying the coconut one at the moment. Molten Brown if given some for Xmas or birthday.

Love Clarins body lotion, but it’s too expensive for every day use, so I’m using Aveeno which does the job.

I get Dove in the maroon pot when it's on offer. Very creamy and rubs in easily. Works for me.

Do you trust the Environmental Working Group as a source of scientific information Hetty?
Do you know anything at all about who they are, who funds them, what research they base their scores on?

janeainsworth, they list ingredients of concern. Yes, there's probably better sources of information.

At least, though (unlike my friend) I don't strip all the oils from my skin with harsh detergents and shower scrubbies - to find my skin 'dry', then smother myself in dodgy chemicals - and wonder why I don't feel so good.

She's careful about what she eats, yet seems to think it's great that these lotions 'sink in'!

Hetty It concerns me when organisations like EWG imply that products contain substances that, for example, they say are ‘linked to cancer’, without any indication of the dose required or route of ingestion required to induce cellular changes in human beings.
It seems unnecessary scaremongering and yes I’m cynical enough to think they probably have their own commercial interests at heart too.

Use Tesco’s own brand coconut body lotion comes in a brown container I really like it.

Aveeno is nice.

(and I only do my knees and elbows!)

This did make us laugh, when I told my husband. I bet you’ve got elbows and knees to die for ?. Love to see pics.

I like E45 for my dry skin.

Thanks everyone for your recommendations, some great ideas for me to try.
