My take on Bath & Body Works Pleasures Sun Ripened Raspberry Body Lotion:

I came across this lotion as a gift from a friend in 2008 and since then I have been addicted to this. It is my favorite lotion of all times.It smells like a combination of vanilla and raspberries.It is a light moisturizer and is not at all greasy.

As I apply it to my skin it gets absorbed quickly leaving a moisturized skin. I have been using the lotion for the past 5 years but sparingly as this fragrance is not available in India and every time its finished,I need to wait till one of my friends return to India 🙂 One bottle lasts up to 6 months if you use it daily a bit sparingly 😉

It comes in a sturdy bottle with a transparent cap with a push- button from where the lotion is dispensed from.
It is not for the dry skin ladies out there as it is mild and cannot control the dry skin during the winters.They can very well use it in the summers. I normally combine it with any unscented lotions and use during winters.
