Rain or shine our skin can do with some extra nourishing care. It needs to be protected against the harsh climates and there are months where it needs intense protection. I have an array of body lotions and one product from my collection that I love is Garnier Body Cocoon Intense Moisture Lotion.
The product claims to “Its creamy yet light texture is instantly absorbed into the skin – enveloping it in a nourishing cocoon of softness, leaving it deliciously fragranced.Its moisturizing formula blends selected natural ingredients: Nutritive Fruit Oils from apricots, olives, blackcurrants and avocados t0 deliver an immediate burst of moisture to the skin.Visible result:Dry skin appears transformed
- Visibly smoother
- Noticeably softer”
My Experience with Garnier Body Cocoon Intense Moisture Lotion
Body lotions, moisturizers, puree, body butters, we call them by different names. But what they do at the end of the day is protect our skin, keep it in a cocoon. Garnier Body Cocoon Intense Moisture Lotion comes in an orange bottle. The body lotion is white in colour with a refreshing fragrance that lingers. I have used this during warm days and chilly days, and it has managed to keep my skin soft. Every time I use this body lotion my skin feels smooth and silky without any stickiness.
While this offers good amount of nourishment and moisturisation, it may not be as effective on extremely dry skin and may require reapplication. The body lotion also contains parabens like most products in the market. Apart from these Garnier Body Cocoon Intense Moisture Lotion is a great addition to have in your skin care kit. Do you have favourite body butter you turn it? Let us know in the comments below.

- Doesn’t feel greasy or heavy on the skin
- A little goes a long way with this body lotion
- Has a mild refreshing fragrance that lingers
The Bad
- Contains parabens
- May not be very effective on extremely dry skin

You can check them out online. They are easily available.
I don’t prefer online shopping unless it’s cod option. Hate using cards 😀
Hehe. But you have to admit you do get some amazing offers online.
Oh yes, true that!
i think this is the 1st body lotion that impressed me during my school/college days (cant remember) but at that time, i found it expensive. i had almost forgotten about this but ur review has brought it back to my memory… next time i need a body lotion, will surely keep in mind esp since now it seems so affordable haha 🙂

Ah nice to hear that Jennifer.
I never bought it but used it once from my friend. I applied it on my face and it felt good as I have very dry skin. I want to try The Body Shop body butters.

Nice to see it worked on your face as well.
I never used this but i think i could use this in summers as i dont have dry skin and i love using body lotions in summers too 🙂
This body lotion should work well even in summers and it smells amazing.
I have used this body lotion in the past and absolutely loved it. It really used to work well and smelled fantastic 🙂

The smell is absolutely amazing.
Oh my God this post brings back such fond memories. I used it way back and totally loved. Though my skin did not use to be this dry way back, so i don’t know if it will work that well for me. But thanks for such a great reminder.

If you have extremely dry skin this may not be very effective. Even otherwise this is a great body lotion.
Never saw in the shelves of supermarket.. But will checkout online after reading your review 🙂

Thanks Anjali. Do try to get your hands on this body lotion.
TBS body butters and lotions are my favorite 🙂 I used it once in extreme winters and my normal skin felt parched by end of the day.. So never repurchased it.. I guess this deserves another shot on your recommendation 🙂

I love TBS body butters. But they are on the expensive side. Sometimes it nice to try products that don’t burn a hole in your pocket.
hehehe agreed…i stock TBS butters in 50% sale but for body lotions i keep experimenting with different reasonably priced brands 🙂
anubhuti recently posted…BBlunt Climate Control Anti-Frizz Leave-in Cream Review
Sales are definitely a better period to buy TBS and they great offers sometimes.
I haven’t tried Garnier body products but this seems to be a really good product ! I like the price point too

For me its always aloe vera body lotion ( Dr prescribed), then comes Parachute advanced lotion which really works for me. Never tried Garnier products, if I get it this time, will definitely buy 🙂 Nicely reviewed…

This is definitely non-greasy and doesn’t feel heavy or oily at all.
Always nice to hear about a good moisturizer.

There are soo many newly released lotions that I wish to try but sadly they are not available in most of the stores 🙁

Purva recently posted…Sugar Its A-pout time! Vivid Lipstick – Breaking Bare : Review , Swatch
Me too Purva. The smell is amazing.
I love the Body Luxuries Body lotions because they are effective, quick to sink in and cheap as chips. Yes, for more hydration the St Ives body lotions are great for the face and body both. I would highly recommend to get your mitts on them.
