BzzAgent: E45 Campaign

So, I was recently sent the new E45 body lotion to try out. I've used the original before and wasn't overly impressed. In my kit I was given 2 full size samples, 10 samples to hand out and a booklet with all the information I needed.

On the E45 website, the Nourish & Restore lotion is described as 'Specially enriched with natural oils and Vitamin B3, making it a fantastic gentle skin care product for mature skin. It nourishes and helps restore supple, softer and noticeably glowing skin in just three weeks. Its unique formula is enriched with naturally derived lipid and glycerine that work with your skin to replenish lost hydration and then build and maintain it throughout the day. E45 Nourish and Restore body lotion is light weight and quickly absorbed, non-greasy, hypoallergenic and lightly fragranced, making it perfect for normal to dry skin, and it is even a good sensitive skin moisturiser.'

My skin type is normal-dry, and can be quite sensitive. When I noticed that the new lotion was scented I was unsure about how my skin would react. However, the slight scent is designed to not irritate delicate skin, which means this lotion is perfect for people with skin like mine, who can't usually enjoy using scented products.

The lotion itself is the same texture as the original has always been, soft and silky on the skin. It also absorbed really well, I don't like lotions to stick on the skin and create almost a barrier. But lotions which sink in quickly are often not moisturising enough. This lotion was somewhere inbetween, it wasn't sticky but it still felt like it was doing something.

After a week of use, morning and night applications, I was surprised how much my skin has changed. I definitely noticed a significant improvement to the appearance and overall condition of my skin. It is definitely worth investing in, especially for those with dry, hard to please skin.

At Boots the 400ml lotion is priced at £5.49, reasonable for the results it provides. The people at E45 are currently giving away free samples, so if you fancy a try click here to receive yours.
