   Solved my skin bumps!, April 27, 2010

   By 

   Perpetua (Denver, CO) –

   Amazon Verified Purchase(What’s this?)

   This is, hands down, the best body lotion I’ve used. I have extremely dry, very fair (w/ freckles) skin and have had a lifetime of being embarrassed over the skin bumps on my arms and legs that were bad enough to make me wear long-sleeved shirts and pants in the hot summer months.

   I started learning more about parabens potentially contributing to cancer (they’ve found parabens in the tumors removed from womens’ breasts), among other things (I’ve gone organic/vegan wherever possible). While there are other good, all natural lotions (Hugo’s Naturals is great!), I am more than willing to give up the 100% natural ingredients to make Alba’s Very Emollient Body Lotion, Maximum Dry Skin Formula w/ AHAs my go-to lotion for life.

   I have used PLENTY of lotions with AHAs and others that claim to be designed to heal skin bumps (there’s a name for it that I can’t think of, and if I could I wouldn’t know how to spell it, and I don’t want to look it up right now). I did not buy this lotion for my skin bump problem – I bought it because it was on sale, 100% vegetarian, and paraben-free. Low and behold…skin bumps VANISHED within a week!!! Not only is this a GREAT moisturizing lotion (I used to swear by Avon’s Intense Moisture Therapy for skin moisturizing), it is light (but extremely effective), smells nice, and keeps my skin glowing and bump-free.

   I’m a customer for life. Thanks Alba!

   Favorite Body Lotion, August 25, 2009

   By 

   Amanda “akitty0543″ (Boise, Idaho United States) –

   This review is from: Alba Botanica Very Emollient Body Lotion, Maximum Dry Skin Formula, 32-Ounce Bottle (Health and Beauty)

   This is hands down my favorite body lotion. I have year-round dry skin, and it is so hard to find a lotion that will moisturize my skin thoroughly without leaving “build-up”. The Very Emollient Body Lotion absorbs completely into my skin and moisturizes better than many other brands I have tried (Aveda, Lush, Bath & Body Works etc…). The fact that it absorbs completely makes it perfect for use in the summer. It’s like I don’t even have lotion on, just naturally healthy soft skin. I personally like the smell quite a bit. It smells like aloe vera and chamomile. It’s clean, light, and–as another reviewer mentioned–does not conflict with perfumes.

   **A Note to Buyers:
   While the price listed is the average price you will see this lotion being sold for, I have found it at many stores for less. Mostly at stores that specialize in organics. I’ve seen it being sold at Whole Foods for $15 (regular price, not sale). So, check your local co-op, or Whole Foods.
