Victoria’s Secret Rockin’ Body Luminous Perfecting Body Cream Review

Victoria’s Secret Rockin’ Body Luminous Perfecting Body Cream

By Rasshi Nanda

I have always been a massive, hardcore fan of all things sold in Victorias Secret. So before the store launched in London, I used to go gaga during every trip made to America. My parents being so lovely as they are, never stopped me or my sister whilst we picked up practically everything from their store as well as from PINK (their sister store).

On one such trip to the sunny land of California, while picking up several bottles of their coconut passion scented body wash and moisturiser for myself and my sister, I stumbled upon a cream, claiming that it was the answer to perfect looking skin. Mesmerised by its glossy pink and silver packaging, I just had to shove it into my overfilled shopping bag and take it home with me.

Price– $43.00 (I purchased it at that price, much cheaper online)/ Rs. 2600.71 for 4.2 oz.

Claim– Every body has parts that need perfecting (insider secret: even our Supermodels get a little help). And whether it’s amazing arms, gorgeous gams or a sexy décolleté you seek, our Rockin’ Body perfecting cream can get you a little closer to your goal. Our triple-action formula works instantly to smooth, brighten and blur the look of imperfections. Ingredients like moisture-rich vitamin E and shea butter leave skin feeling velvety soft and supple, while high-tech optical diffusers and luminous Diamond Powder create the illusion of a flawless finish. Which means that even if your body is somewhat less than perfect, nobody ever has to know.

My experience with Victorias Secret Rockin’ Body Luminous Perfecting Body Cream

Like I mentioned before, I truly adored the packaging of the product, and more than anything else, it was definitely the packaging that resulted in me splurging unnecessarily on a product that I would not normally purchase otherwise.

It comes in a pretty candy pink and silver tube, it looks super luxurious and is extremely eye catching (amongst all my product bottles, this is one of the bottles that does stand outs from the rest). You have to twist the cap open to expose the nozzle of the tube and you have to squeeze the product out. Due to its large size, it is not extremely travel friendly.

On application it feels like a beautiful fluffy cream, but glides extremely smoothly on the skin and makes the skin feel instantly smooth and soft. I really love how my skin feels and smells after I apply this product. It has a yummy fragrance to it, its like a light candy and for some really strange reason it reminds me of Treat orange cream biscuits (My absolute favourite). It is a sort of a golden colour lotion with hints of glitter dust within it, which is more prominent when rubbed into the skin.

Honestly this product is like a bronzer or an illuminating product for the body rather than the face. But don’t fret ladies, it does not make the skin look dark, instead the sheen effect of the product, provides an irresistible shine/ glow to the skin. You only require a little bit of the product and you are good to go!

The product is pretty amazing, but I would not exactly agree with the claim of it making you look ‘5 x sexier’ or its ability to diminish flaws on the skin. I don’t have any imperfections on my skin as such, however the claims are a bit too over the top and promises far too much, compared to what it actually does. But, if just used as an illuminating lotion, cause of its light reflecting properties, it does a really good job in my opinion. The lotion does enough to make the skin look shiny and golden-ish when rubbed into the skin because of the diamond dust in the formula.

It is perfect to apply while wearing a dress for a dinner date or a party, a little product rubbed on the collar bones and onto the legs, would highlight, just the right parts of your skin, making it look beautifully radiant. And most importantly, it is ‘THE” lotion to apply on your legs after a sunny vacation with loads of sun tanning and swimming. I have done that during/after every holiday in the sun. It compliments my tan so well, making my legs look so smooth and shiny, it makes me embrace my tanned skin more than usual.

Having said that I would not suggest this is a daily cream at all! It is not a real moisturiser, so please don’t use it in that manner, it is a lotion just to be used on special occasions when you need that extra glamour to your skin.
