Green Angel Seaweed Body Lotion

For those of you have followed me for a while now know that I am obsessed with body products. I love nothing more than slathering a freshly scrubbed body with the most luxurious and nourishing lotion and getting into a nice snug pair of pyjamas.

So when I got the chance to try Green Angel's Seaweed Body Lotion I was Siked.

Green Angel Seaweed Body Lotion is jam packed with amazing ingredients including Seaweed, Neroli, Camomile and Vitamin E. So what does this mean for the skin?

Seaweed is known to increase the blood flow when applied to the skin which in turn aids in healing damaged skin while at the same time leaves skin glowing, brighter and softer.

Neroli is extremely gentle and calming on the skin so it is fantastic for anyone who suffers from skin irritations. But the best bit of all is that it's not only great on the skin but it also works wonders for your mind set. When you apply this body lotion it has a really strong scent which when inhaled creates a calm and relaxed state of mind. I adore applying this before bed to aid in a peaceful nights sleep.

Likewise Camomile is super gentle and calming on the skin. So you are sure that this lotion will not irritate your skin. Vitamin E is one of the most basic but effective essential oils and when added to skincare it helps to moisturise, nourish and keep the skin subtle and youthful looking.

When all of these hard working ingredients are combined together it creates a luxurious, gentle, calming and soothing body lotion. This combination is also said to reduce the appearance of broken veins and capillaries under the skin, I cannot vouch for this though as I don't really have to deal with this problem.

I have been using this product for a while now so what do I think of it???

To say I love it is an understatement. I love that it is such a lightweight lotion but feels so moistuirising and luxurious on the skin. The scent reminds me of the oils used when getting a massage which in itself helps you feel relaxed when you use it.

It is not sticky at all on the skin. It soaks into the skin immediately and there is a very obvious difference in the skin after application. The skin looks hydrated, subtle and very youthful. A little goes a long way because it spreads very well on the skin.

The scent is very prominent during application but it doesn't linger too long so it won't alter the smell of your perfume or body spray.

This lotion would be amazing for using after a day in the sun but equally as nice to hydrate your skin on a winters evening. I will definitely be taking this with me on holidays next year.

I also love using this lotion to keep my fake tan hydrated which definitely keeps it looking better for longer.

The ONLY downfall to this product is the packaging. For me this does not do the product any justice. This lotion for me is so lavish that it deserves packaging to showcase this. The packaging is very simplistic and in my opinion doesn't look super fancy. However, it wouldn't stop me using or purchasing this product because the performance of the cream well outweighs any boring packaging.

Overall, I adore this product and would definitely advise you to give it a go.

Best of all Green Angel is a brand located and made in Ireland. They have a massive range of skincare products available which are sold country wide. See here for a list of stockists and they have also recently started to stock their products in Arnotts on Henry street, very fancy!!!

Green Angel have won countless awards for their products which includes an Image Magazine Beauty Award for Best Body Range. Definitely a worthy winner.

This body lotion will set you back around €15 but I do think its worth the money because the ingredients are second to none and there is definitely a difference in my skin after using this for a while!

A word of warning though to any of your ladies that are currently pregnant. This product is not recommended to use during pregnancy as it contains a lot of essential oils and the jury is still out on how safe essential oils are for use during pregnancy.

I am also currently testing out one of the Green Angel Face Creams but I need to use this for a little longer to give a full and honest review on it so be sure to check back in the coming weeks to see what I thought of this face cream.

So, that's enough on this little gem, although I feel I could speak about it all day.

Please let me know if you have tried any Green Angel Products and if you have any product recommendations. Also, what is your favourite body lotion/cream of all time? I would love to hear your thoughts.

Have a great day, much love.
