~Outspoken Body Lotion~

This body lotion is part of the Outspoken collection which Avon released. It was endorsed by singer Fergie. An EDT and body spray are also available.

The scent of this body lotion is identical to that of the perfume and is perfect for layering the overall scent. It is described as 'a bold blend of iced berries, feminine tuberose absolute and daring black leather'.

The body lotion is presented in a tall, sleek tube which has a black and silver design. It features a flip top lid for easy dispensing.

~Price and Availability~

At the moment, this collection is not available to buy directly from Avon but it is often re-released. The 150ml bottle lotion can currently be bought from eBay priced from 99p.

~My Thoughts~

I received this body lotion as part of a gift set last year. The matching products all carry the same scent but in different strengths. The body lotion is beautifully presented and definitely doesn't look out of place when sat next to the EDT and body spray. It looks very stylish in my opinion.

I wear body lotion on a daily basis and often like wearing lotions which match up with the fragrance. This body lotion is no exception. It is very easy to apply. The lotion itself has a thick, creamy consistency which leaves my skin feeling instantly cooled and soothed. It soaks in quickly and doesn't leave any sticky residue which means I can get dressed quickly after applying it. I have dry, rough skin and found that whilst the body lotion left my skin feeling smooth to the touch, the light moisturisation that it offered was long lasting. It is an incredibly gentle lotion to use though and doesn't cause any irritation to my sensitive skin.

This body lotion is nicely perfumed and the scent is very much like the EDT but less concentrated. The body lotion leaves my skin with a pleasant, light and quite fresh smelling aroma. I can pick up on the berries and a slight sweet aroma which is lovely to wear. I find that the deep leather note doesn't come through as prominent with the body lotion. The scent is noticeable on my skin for a good four hours or so. I find the scent to be light, feminine and perfect for the Summer time.

~Conclusion~

I personally favour this body lotion for wearing during the day and topping up with the EDT later on in the afternoon. This allows the overall scent to remain on my skin for a long period of time. Both products (and also the body spray) are very suited to being used together to create a longer lasting scent but are also ideal for wearing alone for a more subtle version of the Outspoken scent.

For 99p on eBay, this is well worth buying as it is lovely to use and comes recommended by myself.
