As the year is ending, it’s time to rewind and recall the best and the worst of the season.So, I thought I’d ask you guys to list down your favourites and no-so-favorites. By the end of the year we’d save or spend some money based on the experiences of the fellow IMBBians. π This series would go on till the end of December.
So here goes the first one :
What has been your favourite and not-so-favourite body lotion for 2012? Also, mention your skin type.

I guess I’d start with mine :
I have dry skin. No duds as such but these have been my super favs this year :
1. Forest Essentials Body Oil Orage & Cinnamon
2. Kiehl’s Creme De Corps Lightweight Body Lotion
3. Vaseline Cocoa Butter Body Lotion
4. L’occitane Ulta Rich Body Cream
I have sensitive skin but I love using Vaseline and Lakme Sunexpert..
No bad experiences this year..
My favs have been :
vaseline cocoa butter body lotion
TBS spiced vanilla body lotion
TBS japanese cherry blossom body butter
BBW aqua body souffle
I have normal to dry skin
i have dry skin which turns super dry in winters….my favs will be the vaseline cocoa butter and the parachute body lotion for extra dry skin.
my comment went for moderation π

Body lotion on a budget – Himalaya all purpose cold cream serves the purpose.
Rati.. the logo pic for this series says MIBB instead of IMBB.. π
it’s imbb only. the font is sort of like that
Oops..!!! Yeah..!!!! It’s IMBB.. π and yaar.. the cake is soooo awesome.. the person who thought of that vanity bag on the cake is super creative..!!! Next yr.. when I am in Delhi.. I am coming to eat the cake for 4 th anniversary.
It does look like MIBB too, good catch though π
Mine would be
1.Cetaphill DAM ultra moisturizer
2.Vaseline Coco body lotion
i have normal skin, but when winter comes it becomes super dry, i tried all the indian ITC lotion but the best that suited me is pond triple vitamin, i even tried TBS shea body butter n blam, that made me super dry, my lips were peeling, and i google for allergies using shea butter , bang i came to know i got it T_T

seems like i’m really going to have to buy the vaseline cocoa body lotion! π
for me,the best was Nivea express hydration…
I have very normal skin…
I am using Bath And Body Works Malibu Heat Body Lotion.
I bet if you use it once, people will ask you which perfume you are using as it smells just amazing!!!!!!
Apart from that I use Garnier Body Cocoon.
Bad Experience has been Lakme Perfect Radiance Day Cream… Its just so thick and make my face awfully white and patchy.. π
I have regular skin. My favourites will have to be the Vaseline one and the recent purchase from Marks&Spencer – The Pomegranite one.
only had good experience–
TBS Strawberry Body Lotion
TBS Passion Fruit Body Butter
and the one which never lets me down – Vaesline! π
btw, dont know how feasible this is but a run down on the IMBB’s best and worst this year in terms of skincare, makeup etc would also be good π
my skin is normal to dry love using TBS spiced vanilla butter,Vaselline Cocoa lotion..worst is jovees body lotion did nothing..
Victoria Secret Body Butter (Love Spell, Pure Seduction, Sweet Daydream, Endless Love) ..they all are my fav π
worst was Bath&Body Works Amethyst body cream….it doesn’t moisturize at all …within 4 hours my skin felt super dry π
I have normal skin which turns dry in winters.my best-vaseline cocoa body lotion,worst-nivea whitening(no moisturisation at all)
I have normal skin which gets quite dry in winters..
For Body:
Nivea body lotion works well
Vaseline Cocoa Butter
Vaseline Jelly for Heels
TBS Cocoa Butter for Hands and feet
Face:
TBS Tea Tree Oil or
Lotus Herbals Aloe Vera Moisturiser
I have normal to dry skin –
For summer’s TBS Sweet Lemon whip body lotion, Vaseline healthy white, yardly English lavender moisturizing lotion. All the three leave beautifully fragranced, non sticky, moisturized skin.
For winter’s TBS Shea butter lotion, Dove indulgent moisturizing Shea body lotion, TBS peppermint cooling foot lotion for dry, cracked feet. Dove can feel a little thick on application, but once absorbed they stay moisturized for hours. π
On the wish list Vaseline cocoa body lotion. So many hits for it on imbb!
i have dry skin and fav is vaseline and worst is nivea……
i have combination skin, oily on tzone, acne prone..for me vaseline healthy white works superb on my skin..haven’t tried the worst π
I have normal to oily skin….
Thumbs up:
For Face : Sebamed clear face care gel and Vicco both do wonders….
For Body : Ayur, TBS and Derma 10 Body Butters
Oriflame does nothing as always….
BTW… Do not use Vaseline petroleum jelly on lips, dark kar deta hai… tried and tested by me and many people around…..
