Kiehl’s Creme de Corps Nurturing Body Washing Cream Review

Hi everyone,

Kiehl’s ‘Creme de Corps’ is a very popular range; I have tried the body polish and body lotion from this range and love both of them so dearly. When I saw this body wash, I immediately wanted to give it a try. Its creamy formula looked apt for my skin type and I thought it would be as wonderful as The Body Shop Shea Butter Shower Cream, but sadly, I was left disappointed. Read on further to find out why.

My Experience with Kiehl’s Creme de Corps Nurturing Body Washing Cream:

This body wash comes in a tube packaging, just like the Creme de Corps body polish. It comes in a very functional and sober white and yellow coloured tube. It has all the details printed on it. The flip cap is functional and always dispenses the right amount of the product, i.e. you have control over the amount of product getting dispensed. I am not sure if it’s travel-safe; it won’t leak on its own, but then, this tube isn’t really small. This body wash is priced at INR 1500, and I don’t think it’s worth the price.

The only thing I like about this body wash is that it cleanses – not exceptionally well, though, but that’s just about it. This is not a refreshing body wash. It is not something I or anyone would prefer after a tiring day or after a long sweaty workout session. It has a creamy consistency but it doesn’t really feel creamy on the skin. Have you ever used a soap with hard water? Remember how scaly and strange the foam becomes in texture? This is exactly how this body wash feels even with soft water. Also, it does not spread easily on the skin; it gets distributed unevenly. Even the loofah cannot make it work.

It does not lather even when I take a lot of the product. Rinsing it is not easy; you need to use a lot of water. Still, it leaves a strange slippery feel on the skin, which I do not like. I don’t think it is moisturising enough for dry or sensitive skin types either. Overall, I do not like this body wash at all. It does not really do anything. I was really looking forward to it, but was left disappointed. It is not good enough even for shaving, so I don’t know if I will be able to finish it. I am not impressed and it is not worth the price. Body washes are supposed to make you feel energised, clean and refreshed but this one is a total failure!
