Texture- Lotion is milky white which is quite runny and not too thick. Even though the main ingredient is cocoa butter, it doesn’t smell of the same. It has peculiar fragrance which is reminds of some kind of medicine. I’m not a fan of its fragrance but because it is not overpowering and doesn’t linger for long, I don’t mind it either.

My Experience with VLCC Cocoa Butter Body Lotion

Just before Christmas I went to stay with my friends for the holiday season, during that time I picked this lotion and I have been using it for quite some time now. It gets absorbed into skin quite easily. And because it has SPF, I use it mainly during the day time.
I have serious dry skin. I feel this lotion is very light for the kind of hydration that is required during winters. Even though it has cocoa butter, olive oil and shea butter, it is neither heavy in texture nor it is moisturizing enough.
It is an affordable lotion and I would be using it more frequently during a little warmer season.

Pros

Affordable
Light consistency
It is non-greasy
Comes with an SPF of 15 and UVA and UVB protection.
Smell is not overpowering

Cons

          Not hydrating enough for winters

          I don’t like the smell (personal preference)

Rating- 3/5

Will I repurchase or recommend it?

Yes, I will. I like this light weight moisturizer, its just that it is not great for winters. If you are looking for light moisturizer which gets absorbed into skin quickly and is affordable as well, go for it. Bonus- It has SPF for sun protection as well .
