Avon Skin So Soft Fast Hydration Body Gel Lotion

   Healthy skin is well moisturized skin. Our skin actively works to help balance moisture by using its own natural moisturizing factors and by preventing too much water from evaporating. But in a hot and humid country such as ours, applying body creams and lotions can be quite uncomfortable, especially when mixed with dirt, dust, and sweat, thereby leaving a greasy feeling at the end of the day. Summer is just around the corner so my search for the lightest, non-greasy lotion has begun.

   I have oily skin on my face but my body skin tends to be dry and sensitive. I've been trying out different brands of body lotions which serve different purposes because I am hard to please when it comes to skin care products partly due to my skin type. As much as possible, I want my skin to feel taut and very clean after bath especially when I have to go out of the house. I only apply cream-based lotions at night after bath so it would be well-absorbed and would not give me that icky feeling. I am a fan of gel lotions but unfortunately, only a few known brands have them and at expensive prices. Anyway, I happened to pass by an Avon outlet in Market, Market and as I was browsing through their product displays, a teal-colored bottle caught my attention and to my surprise, it was a Body Gel Lotion! I sniffed it and since I love the refreshing scent, I immediately purchased one for an unbelievable price of Php 119!

I started using this last February 15 and I'm in love! 

It's easily absorbed and leaves a silky smooth finish.

What I Like:

• The packaging is simple and spill-free.
• It is very affordable and being an Avon member, I get to enjoy a discount on top of the promo price!
• The scent reminds me of Bath and Body Work's Cucumber and Melon Body Spray.
• It leaves a cool, minty feeling upon application.
• It is easily absorbed and leaves a subtle,refreshing scent. 
• It makes my skin smooth and silky.
• It's like applying water on my skin, lightweight and non-greasy.

What I Don't Like:

• It has no SPF, but it's not a big deal for me.

Verdict:

        I give this a rating of 4.75/5. It is affordable and it works for my skin. I think I have found a HG lotion for me. I will repurchase again after I finish my first bottle. Highly recommended!!
