Making sure your skin is healthy and properly moisturized is a priority in every season. During these dry, cold months of late fall and winter maintaining that youthful, dewy glow can be extra complicated. Thanks to Beauty care choices I received a tube of Surface Acai & Blueberry Body Lotion for the purposes of review.
The first thing I noticed when I opened the shipping box was the fragrance. It was super intense and I hadn’t even opened the tube! Honestly, it took a week or so of daily applications to get used to and really begin to enjoy the intensely sweet acai-blueberry scent. It is so intense that it will compete with any other fragrance and would best be used alone. One day I finally fell upon what the fragrance reminded me of – a brand new acai-blueberry scented candle. You know the experience when you crack the lid on a brand new candle for the first time. That is what this lotion smelled like. Sometimes I’ll just give the tube a good sniff since either the odor is imbued in the package or the lotion’s perfume had impregnated the container.
Typically, my girls and I use lotion brands available in big box stores which are thicker and more sticktoative than most. The Surface lotion quickly became our go to lotion. The texture of the formula is not too thick and not too thin. We didn’t experience any itching right after application (some brands do that to us) nor did we notice tightness and dryness later in the day. It is best applied on freshly cleansed skin. We discovered it was also good for application on the face since it was not too thick. It leaves your skin feeling silky soft.
A couple of things which are important to note are that this lotion is both gluten free and vegan. The vegan aspect doesn’t mean much to me BUT it is surprisingly hard to find a lotion or skin care product which is gluten free. So this was a perfect lotion to use on my eldest who is gluten intolerant.
