It tastes like a warm, chocolate chip cookie. I like to top it with whip cream (just a little!) and it tastes like dessert. So good! Anyway, where was I? Right\u2026long day\u2026<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m running close to the end of two of my courses, so I\u2019ve been very busy researching and working on my final reports. All I can say is\u2026thank goodness the end is in sight.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, as you know I\u2019m doing a bit of series about natural makeup and natural body care, so I wanted to share with you one of my newest favourites.<\/p>\n<p>This stuff.

There\u2019s nothing I can\u2019t pronounce, it\u2019s a short ingredient list, and everything is nourishing and healthy for your skin.

It\u2019s so moisturizing, sinks in quickly, and doesn\u2019t feel sticky on my skin (like some of my other lotions).<\/p>\n<p>I feel really spoiled with this brand and plan on continuing to use it, because it\u2019s amazing.
