C.O. Bigelow Lemon Body Cream NO. 005
C.O. Bigelow’s time-honored formula is the ultimate in intensive moisture care for very dry skin. A little of this rich, non-greasy cream dramatically renews, softens and moisturizes.
Honestly, I never would have tried this product if I hadn’t stolen it from my friend, Laura. Just kidding, I asked permission! (She had two given to her). Anyways, that’s besides the point! This body cream is heavenly! Seriously! I’ve always been a huge fan of lemon. I love lemon cake, lemon Scentsy scents, lemon perfume, lemons, and so on and so on. So when I tried C.O. Bigelow’s Lemon Body Cream, it was meant to be!
I blogged before about my torrid love affair with C.O. Bigelow’s Rose Salve, and it seems like they’ve done it again! The body cream is silky smooth, although slightly greasy, and immediately renews my dry areas. And of course, all the while doing that it smells WONDERFUL. I pretty much want to devour my elbows or wherever I have applied the cream. It also works perfectly on my face before bedtime. I haven’t had any issues with the cream as far as break outs or allergic reactions, but I do reccommend with anything to do your research and see what works for you (A lot of people have complained of reactions to the lemon — read the reviews here). I was personally surprised by some of the negative feedback, and I urge you to try for yourself!
You can purchase your own C.O. Bigelow Lemon Body Cream from your local Bath & Body Works (or from C.O. Bigelow online directly). Typically 8oz for $19.50 (And of course, take advantage of B&BW’s Buy 2, Get 1 Free deal), although I have seen 32oz jars, as well, and mine is only 1.7oz. $19.50 seems a little pricey, but my much smaller jar has lasted me a few months now. Also, C.O. Bigelow has an entire line of Lemon products (including a body lotion if that’s more your taste), and I highly recommend them to anyone who is a fan of lemon!
