Do you have a favorite lotion? If so what is it? What's the most important factor when you're choosing a lotion? The scent? The texture? The ingredients? I really like lotions from Victoria's Secret and Bath & Body Works. I usually choose based on the scent. I love the Victoria Secret scent, LoveSpell. At Bath & Body I love so many of theirs. I don't like when a lotion is really greasy or leaves your skin moist for too long. I usually like the texture to be thinner. I don't like the body butters or that type of thing, because they're so thick. I prefer the kind in a bottle.

I have lots of favorite brands of lotions. when choosing a lotion, I mostly buy whitening lotions. mostly with spf or with protection from the uv rays of sun. I do like nivea and a bonne whitening lotions. it really lightens my skin, and make my skin soft, smooth and moisturize. I also like victoria secret for its scents. the flavor that I really love are sweet temptation and strawberry. I heard lots of good feedback on bath and body works, but i have not try it. maybe I'll just give it try.

I knew they made tanning lotions, but I didn't know they made whitening ones. I have some Victoria's Secret Shimmer Lotion in the Strawberries and Champagne scent. It's nice.

No, VS and Nivea don't make the tanning ones. I just meant that I've seen lotions that make your skin darker but never any that make you lighter. =)

OMG great minds think alike.. I use victorias secret lvoe spell every day.... well in the dayy to go out.. at nightsss i use bath and body works "white christmas".. smells soo good.. the smell has to be similar to my perfume and stuff and the texture is suppose to feel sort of silky.. also one more thing is that these 2 brands are long lasting... they stay on my skin for over 5 hours... so whenever im near someone i like i know he smells me.. And i know i smell GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD tooo.. therefore its definitely not a waste of my money at all.. love spell is the best scent from victoria secret

They do last a long time. I remember seeing the White Christmas one, but I don't remember the actual scent of it. I agree that Love Spell is the best scent from Victoria's Secret. When I was in college there was a girl who would put it on before she came to class and you could smell it as soon as she walked in the door.

I enjoy using lotions from Lush. One of my favourites is "Skin Sin". It smells like cherries, but sadly they're discontinuing it. I'm really sad about that. I also love their "Sympathy for the Skin" moisturiser. It's really thick and it smells like vanilla ice cream. Yum.

I've never tried Lush lotions. That sucks they're discontinuing your fave. It sounds like it probably was a really nice scent. I like the smell of cherries. I hate when beauty products that I like are discontinued. It can be frustrating.

I was born with eczema so I can't use just any kind of lotion on my skin. The only kind i've found so far that feels good and keeps my skin nice and soft is Suave advanced therapy. I love it and it smells good.

The Johnsons stuff is nice. So is the Victoria's Secret stuff. They do, both, work well and make skin soft.

For me it's the body butters from Bath and Body Works. The scent has to be Coconut Lime Verbena. I just LOVE that scent it's the best! I like the thick creaminess of the lotion. My favorite is to rub it all over... hands, elbows, knees, feet... and sit and let it soak in and smell the great scent while I'm watching TV at night, it feels so cool and refreshing... mmm!

The coconut lime verbena is a nice scent. I've never bought that one, but I've tested it in the store. I like to sit and relax and watch tv when I put lotion on my feet. It's very relaxing. I had the body butters from Bath And Body Works and it just would leave a greasy film on my skin all day...but it worked nicely on my ankles when they'd get dry.

I am a male and I use baby lotion most of the time, but I also like the Dove and Olay Quench lotions to help my skin soft.
