I like this moisturizer (and the honey calendula) too. The scent is nice and the ingredients are also mostly natural.
The cream looks and has a silky texture.
A bit difficult to spread like a lotion. Leaves a white residue that needs to be rubbed in. Overall, a great product.

I absolutely love this moisturizer. I'm on my third bottle. It's just for summertime though, since it's quite light. It is absorbed into the skin fairly quickly and isn't greasy at all. I use this at night after I've cleansed (I use moisturizers with SPF during the day). Quite a strong smell, but if you love lavender and don't have skin sensitive to perfumes, this is a perfect, light moisturizer. Also, it's quite cheap and natural!

I have super sensitive skin so I read the ingredients and thought it might be ok as a facial moisturizer as well. Boy did I hit pay dirt. This moisturizer calms my roseacea and balances my T zone. It is not oily and is ideal for combination skin. It also does not contain glycerine which I have allergy issues with. I do find as a body moisturizer, it is best for those who have nornal to oily skin as it very light in moisturizing properties. It is perfect for me.

This moisturizer has an incredible smell in the bottle that doesn't quite transfer to skin- on my skin it smells like a very sour mix of flowers and baby powder. It's very important to try this before buying so you can check how the scent works on your skin.

I do think the "ultra moisturizing" is a bit of an exaggeration because it feels lighter than the olive and aloe moisturizer to me. If anything it's a light moisturizer and would probably be a great everyday moisturizer- the scent isn't horribly strong and fades pretty quickly which could be a good thing or a bad thing- in my case it's a good thing, but I probably won't use the rest of this lotion anyway.

I love lavender. If I didn't, I would not buy this moisturizer again. It doesn't seem to do that good a job of moisturizing.

However, I love rubbing it into my hands. The smell is heavenly. It is a STRONG lavender! It's like aromatherapy in a tube. I carry it around with me and sometimes apply it when I'm driving and stressed. It makes my hands feel moisturized for about a half an hour at most, but I live in a very cold climate. Maybe that's why.

Oooh, I loooove the scent of this! It's very strong, but it's a true, bracing, clean lavender. It's a perfect pick-me-up in the morning (though it damn near makes my bf gag). The lotion itself is quite thin and not ultra-hydrating (therefore I only use it in the summer), and I'm not particularly fond of their pump dispenser -- for some reason, it always clogs. Despite that, I'll definitely repurchase.

This lotion is very pleasant-smelling. I like Kiss My Face lotions in general, but this one is not really the most moisturizing. I like to use it during the summer as a moisturizer and year-round for the scent (instead of perfume), but during the winter when my skin gets really dry, I need something a bit more. However, I still like it.

I found this gem by fluke at Big Lots. It was cheap enough to 'just give it a try', so I went for it. I was *very* pleasantly surprised. I love the texture, absorbtion, and scent (not overpoweringly lavender like some lavender products can be). Application is very smooth, and it keeps my dry skin moisturized all day when I use it after showering. I also have subtle stretch marks from weight loss and this lotion really helps out with minimizing them. Great purchase! I have no idea how much it usually retails for, but I would probably buy it regardless.

This is a thick shea butter lotion which has an aromatherapeutic lavender scent. This is scented with actual essential oils, not a synthetic fake lavender, so that's a plus. It's nice to use in the evening, after a bath. This lotion sinks in nicely as well. The thing that I don't like about it, however, is it isn't very moisturizing.

The first time I tried it, I loved this lotion. The initial lavendar smell is lovely and soft - and you can't beat the price. I went back and bought a bigger bottle. Now I detect a slightly funkier smell when the lotion dries down. I do love the initial smell though - very aromatherapeutic.

If you're looking for a great body moisturizing lotion - try Triple Lanolin Aloe Vera (in the green and white bottle).

I thought it was just average. I definately needs something that moisturizes more than this. The smell is pleasant but unremarkable. I like their Honey & Candula (sp?) lotion better.

It smells like lavender. I didn't notice any unpleasant scent after the dry down. It is a true lavender scent- not fakey smelling. The lotion left my skin amazingly soft and smooth even though it's a pretty lightweight feeling moisturizer. Absorbs very quickly. Nice.

This concoction really does smell like the real thing...I've got a lavender patch outside my kitchen and the scent of this lotion has that same fresh sharpness to it.

I like the lotion's medium-weight texture and find that it absorbs quickly. For a relaxing cold-weather before-bed treat, this complements the St. Ives Aroma Steam Shower Gel in the Calming fragrance quite nicely.

Oh...my...gosh...this stuff smells SO BAD!!!!
Do not be fooled! When I first purchased it, I read the reviews on here and thought "Oh pshaw! This stuff smells wonderful!" It does, for the first 20 seconds. At first, it smells heavenly...like a sweet, cloying lavender scent. Very nice, really. But, after you start rubbing it on/into your skin, it turns. It turns into a very disgusting smelling lotion...VERY disgusting! To me, it smells like bad self tanner...just, gross. Bad self tanner, and B.O. is the best way I can describe it. I tried using it on my face once, and had to not breathe while rubbing it in, due to the horrible stench it was emitting.
It does a so-so job of moisturizing. Nothing special, IMO. It DOES make my skin VERY soft and silky, but after about an hour, I have that itchy feeling (like if I bend over, and the skin on my lower back stretches, it'll get that dry, itchy feeling).
The packaging is horrible. Two seconds after twisting open the pump, lotion started oozing out from the base of the pump (where the pump meets the screw-on pump base part).
Terrible. Do not buy this.

I love this lotion! I love the smell. Almost smells exactly like the lavender bush outside my back door. It's a thick liquid consistancy and feels rich when rubbing into the skin. After about a minute or two my skin completely absorbed it. Didnt leave a greasy feel and my skin feels baby smooth.

I love this body moisterizer, smells like natural lavander, not the artificial perfumy stuff so many brands try to pass off. Very hydrating, but absorbs quickly and not a bit greasy.

I love the lavender scent of this lotion. It feels great on the skin with the shea butter to help combat dry skin. I would buy again!

Smells awful. I love lavender, but not this. As far as a moisturiser, it works pretty well. Absorbs well and makes my skin feel smooth. But I can't stand the smell.

I have to say I really like this product. I hate to go against someone but this is exactly what lavender smells like, although it is very intense. So if you do not like the smell of lavender, I would try another scent. This makes my hands very soft, you don't need much and it absorbs quickly. I have dry skin in the winter and this helped quite a bit. I used it on my legs after shaving and they felt soft and not grasy at all. I love the smell and I keep a small tube by my bedside table and rub a little into my hands right before I go to sleep. Softer hands and aromatherapy in one bottle, what more can you ask for.

Couldn't get past the resiny turpentine-like odor even to put it on.
