Victoria's Secret Beauty Rush Slice Of Heaven body drink lotion Review

Most people in India go crazy about Victoria's Secret just because it is "The Victoria's Secret", well I want to firstly say that i have used up this product to the point where writing about it makes absolute sense and secondly, i had no out of the earth experience with it. So since it’s launch in 2014 in India, Victoria’s Secret has gained much popularity among the women of the country (yes it does have a mens range) and so going by the rave, i bought the “ Beauty rush slice of heaven body drink lotion” which did what i expected it to but only for a short time. Read the review to know why.


 I ordered this product online from jabong.com on a sale for INR950 (actual mrp online INR1499) for 200ml.

I've been using this lotion daily on my body for last one month and i have to say my skin has definitely improved in its texture, it does feel softer and more hydrated than before. Now  if you are a person who would have really dry and dehydrated skin on a hot summer day or a windy winter day despite having a basic moisturizer on, just as me, then you need to give this lotion a go.
The lotion has a runny texture and it quickly gets absorbed into the skin leaving it non greasy and hydrated.


         
no you don't need that much, i worked this up my arm
after applying the lotion. no greasiness 


Now one thing that i would point out at is the strong fragrance. It is a bit too sweet smelling (like the kind of sweet you’d get when you enter a bakery full of vanilla cakes and cinnamon rolls) which some are gonna love but... lets say not everyone is the sweet-smelling type. Below is the product description and ingredients as claimed by the company.




Will i repurchase this?
No. I might have considered buying it again in the dry winters for its hydrating properties but i wont, because :
1.      The fragrance is a bit too sweet and intense for me and i cannot wear this lotion everyday because of it.
2.      Slightly pricey as a body lotion for using daily.

Although it was good having this hydrating lotion around the hottest days of summer for my dry skin but i think i will not require it in monsoon or post-monsoon days.

HIGHLIGHTS:


  • Super hydrating and works for dry skin extremely well
  • intensely sweet smelling
  • you only need a small amount
