Biotique Winter Cherry Body Lotion Review
Hello IMBB ,
We all know how moisturising after a bath is very important. The soap or bath gel we use, however natural it maybe, strips our body of its natural oils while cleansing it. To replenish the moisture loss we have to choose from after bath oils, body butters, body lotions. This is a review of one such product.
1. Biotique Winter Cherry Body Lotion.
What it says– A nourishing lotion made of natural oil and plant extracts it nourishes dry and dehydrated skin leaving it soft and youthful. Removes skin infection and blemishes.
Directions of use– Gently massage appropriate amount.
Ingredients–
Helianthus Annus Oil (Surajmukhi Tail) – 4%
Carthamus Tinctorius Oil (Kusumbhi Tail) – 2.75%
Brassica Nigra Oil (Rai Tail) – 0.5%
Nardostachys Jatamansi Ext.(Jatamansi Kwath) – 3.5%
Prunus Amygdalus Oil (Badam Tail) – 2%
Winthania Somnifera Ext. (Ashwagandha Kwath) – 1.5%
Lotion Base- Q.S
Just notice the thickness of the lotion, I put a dollop on my hand and moved my hand clockwise and anticlockwise. The lotion did not budge.
Hits of Biotique Winter Cherry Lotion
:yes: It is a very thick lotion and heavily moisturises. The moisturising effect lasts for around 12-14 hours.
:yes: It claims about removing blemishes too, I don’t have any so I can’t comment. But a body lotion removing blemishes sounds good.
:yes: Full list of ingredients provided and not just the key ingredients. It has almond oil which is very good for the body.
Misses of Biotique Winter Cherry Lotion
:no: It is very heavily scented. It lingers on for quite some time. I did not like the fragrance at all. The smell is very “incense stick (agarbati) types.
:no: As it moisturises well, it is quite thick and greasy. You have to rub it in for around 4-5 minutes. Even then it is not totally absorbed. Leaves your skin feeling little oily.
:no: Bad packaging .The screw on cap doesn’t go down smoothly and you have to struggle with it.
:no: Lotion base as mentioned in the ingredient list is doubtful. What kind of base and what all goes into it, is unknown.
:no: Not user friendly, the lotion is thick so you have to squeeze the bottle really hard for it to come out.
Verdict– Not very impressive. Will use only if my skin is drying out and can’t find anything else to apply, because the smell really irritates me. Don’t think it will be on anyone’s ‘must have’ list unless of course it has worked some wonders for their skin. Dry skin people might find the moisturising effect very good but I think other better options are also available.
Will I repurchase? NO. My St. Ives Oatmeal &Shea Butter body Lotion is the current favourite and this is no competition to that.
Rating– 2.5 /5

Naina,
U r rite, they wd surely land me in ICCU, coz hv never had d chance to come across these words being spoken in front of me. ppl around me get conscious of what they say in my presence. may b due to my chui mui kind of image. Any1 speaking a little harshly in front of me is sure to bring out tears in my eyes.
nimi see ,the city which we live in , 50% of the population is bitching and cribbing about the other 50 % and being good to them on their face .. you must not have heard these words but its good na we are training you if in case somebody tells you anything , you can reply back :devil: :devil: :devil: :devil:
i assume u are older to me , life has shown me enuff to make me NOT chui mui … HASNT THIS DIRTY WORLD MADE U SRTONG ENUFF ??

I bought papaya scrub from biotique, after reading review here n am loving it.
:announce: :announce: :announce: :announce: :announce: :announce: :announce: :announce: jomolllll … where are u my bhest phriend ???
The dirty world has made me strong enough to face life coz, hv been staying alone n managing home, office n in-laws since last 4 yrs, coz hubby has to b in another city last 3 yrs n on mostly on tours 2 yrs prior to that.
Where i work am d only female payroll employee since last 4 yrs n also in prev orgn same situation for 2 yrs. (hv 2-3 girls in offrol under me).
May b due to that n SH policies, they r cautious of what they speak in my presence & in family my relatives never used any words coz of my parents (both belong to teaching profession).
i guess am older than u by 9 yrs. If situation arises too i dnt think i can reply back ever, coz half life spent being like this only.
You are a sweeet heart Nimi!! 🙂 🙂 :hugright: :hugright: :hugright: :hugright:
hahahahha … omg !!!!! neither do my parents nor do my relatives swear in front of me , even though they are NOT from teaching profession . 😀 😀 😀
its so good that you manage so amny things at once :-* :-* :-* all i wanted to say was to not get offended and upset by trivial things as these … 🙄 🙄 but now i better shut up cos u have spend half of ur life like this 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂
so fuhgettt it … alll cooool :-* :-* :-* :hugright: :hugright: :hugright: :hugright:
Point noted naina, will surely try to be a bit more tolerant in this field also. Am realy happy to be a part of IMBB.
:-)) :-)) :-)) :-)) :-)) :-)) hope i havent hurt you in anyway , thats not what i wanted to do :-)) :-)) :-*
Thnx a lot Cali. :-* :-*
No u’v nt hurt me in any way. dnt worry.
being in same city, we r bound to meet sm day either @ rangoli or meri saheli. 😉 :-* :-*
Biotique never worked for me, from time to time, i pick up soemthing and all end up as foot creams :pig:
same pinch !!! 😮 😮
he he 😉
actually, I did use the winter cherry….found it extremely nice for my skin….I can definitely refute one of the cons…the packaging is fine and I did not need to struggle with it….probably your bottle screw might have been damaged coz I have seen certain Biotique products like that….I think Biotique should really pay attention to the packaging….
yes, it is a thick lotion and extremely moisturizing…..it would be great for dry skin….massaging it in the skin takes a little time but it actually does remove the blemishes…..when I used to use it, my hand was almost back to its normal color…..I like the fragrance…its kinda mild and yes, it lingers around for around half an hour or so…..the lotion is thick so it might have been packaged in a pumping bottle….that would make it easy to use….
