J.R. Watkins Coconut Milk and Hand and Body Lotion Review

 More lotion from the little sampler kit I got. These are really easy to use up...and try at a reasonable price.  I had some issues with this lotion, it separated like the hand cream. Not sure if it's an old sampler kit  or just this scent that has separation issues. This one was easier to fix than the hand cream because I could just shake it before use and that seems to fix it.

J.R. Watkins claims:

Our moisturizing body lotion leaves skin soft and smooth all day long. Made with cocoa butter, shea butter, coconut oil, and Vitamin E. 

It smells like the hand cream, an unexpected fruity scent that's pretty nice. The scent is supposed to be 100 percent natural...it's not too strong and it doesn't linger much. Just a really nice scent when you put it on.

It's surprisingly hydrating though...and not greasy at all. If you like something that absorbs quickly and isn't heavy and sticky, this would be for you. Not sure if it would hold up in the winter months but for less dry months, this is perfect. It also seems to add a little extra softness to my skin.

For the full size it's 9.99 for an 18 oz size which isn't bad at all.

I think the ingredients are pretty nice...there are definitely many ingredients I recognize and like seeing in my lotions. Apricot Oil, Shea and Cocoa Butter, Coconut Oil, Avocado Oil, Babassu Oil, Jojoba Oil, and lots of fun extracts. There are some ingredients I'm not a big of of- phenoxyethanol is one. But I think the good ingredients outweigh the bad- for the most part. 

Ingredients: 

Water/Aqua/Eau, Prunus Armeniaca (Apricot) Kernel Oil, Glyceryl Stearate, Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea Butter), Theobroma Cacao (Cocoa) Seed Butter, Cetearyl Alcohol, Fragrance/Parfum (100% Natural Fragrance), Sodium Stearoyl Lactylate, Glycerin, Cocos Nucifera (Coconut) Oil, Persea Gratissima (Avocado) Oil, Phenoxyethanol, Allantoin, Orbignya Oleifera Seed Oil, Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil, Panthenol, Calendula Officinalis Flower Extract, Chamomilla Recutita (Matricaria) Flower Extract, Tilia Cordata Flower Extract, Centaurea Cyanus Flower Extract, Anthemis Nobilis Flower Extract, Hypericum Perforatum Extract, Tocopheryl Acetate, Cyamopsis Tetragonoloba (Guar) Gum, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice, Potassium Sorbate, Benzoic Acid, Dehydroacetic Acid, Citric Acid, Sodium Hydroxide.

Overall, I really like it. I would recommend it and wouldn't mind having the full sized of it- I would just have to make sure to shake it each time!
