Packaging, Texture and Fragrance

Plum Body Lotion is available in an easy to use plastic bottle with a pump dispenser. It is a travel-friendly product with leakage-proof packaging. It also has the facility of a turning the pump up packaging on/off. The product packaging information like benefits, usage, ingredients, price, expiry date, etc. is also mentioned on the bottle. The body lotion has baby pink color and has a perfect lotion consistency neither too thick nor runny. The best part of this body lotion is its cherry fragrance that feels pleasant, fresh and soothing. The fragrance isn’t too lingering or bothering and fades away in sometime.

My experience with Plum Body Lotion

The lotion easily absorbs into the skin without leaving any sticky or greasy feeling. I feel the lotion is more of a moisturizing one rather than hydrating. It leaves zero sticky feeling while moisturizing the skin. The skin feels a cool and fresh after applying the lotion. The body lotion is non comedogenic as I tend to get some bumps on my thighs if I use thick or oily lotions. This one is very apt for my body skin type.

I don’t feel the need to moisturize my arms and legs once I moisturize them in the morning. However with constant hand washing while cooking and doing other things, I feel the need to moisturize just the hands while in the night routine.

It provides adequate moisture to my skin leaving my skin soft and hydrated for up to 8 hrs. I don’t have extremely dry skin so reapplying this body lotion is not my thing. I feel this lotion is more suitable for normal skin types rather than dry body skin. It is a mild hydrating body lotion, which most of the body lotions are. If you have dry or very dry skin then you can skip this lotion.

Cons

  • Might not be enough moisturizing for dry or very dry skin type
  • The pump is unable to dispense the product when 1/ quantity lotion is left
  • The lotion tends to form a waxy layer at the mouth of the dispenser which needs to be removed with a tooth pick regularly

Plum Cherry Smoothie Creme Body Lotion Review

Plum body lotion has a non greasy, non oily formulation while being a vegan and cruelty free product. The fragrance of the lotion is quite uplifting and refreshing. It is a good option for day to day use and is suitable for normal to oily body skin. Dry or very dry body skin might not find the moisturizing effect sufficient. The fact that Plum products are often on discounts, makes the Plum Cherry Smoothie Creme Body Lotion a budget friendly option for all year round use.
