Advantages: Great pot,nice colour product, applies well and sinks in fast, leaves my skin soft.

Disadvantages: The scent can be overpowering.

FCUK Polished Whipped Bodycream is provided in a circular plastic tub which is tinted pink with a black screw top lid which is easily removed. Once removed I can see the 'whipped bodycream' within and it is a very light coffee coloured cream. I am immediately hit by the scent of this cream as soon as I open the pot and it is a fairly nice scent which I think is predominantly the almond oil and the added vanilla. It is very nice but I think too much of this is a little overpowering.

To use I just apply to my towel dried skin after a bath or shower and it sinks in to my body very easily with just a slight bit of rubbing required. I don't need to use much of this at all as a little definitely goes a long way. It makes my body lovely and scented and my skin deliciously smooth. I do find that my skin feels smooth for the day and it's perfect for using on freshly shaven legs (as I do). I would say that I only need to wait a moment or two before I can get dressed once I've applied this and I don't get left with any greasy residue or any marks on my clothing.

I am a big fan of this product and it is available from Boots for £5.50 for a 300ml pot or £2.25 for a 75ml pot (mini sized). I would definitely recommend buying this and I would recommend the larger pot. Boots tend to have fairly frequent offers on FCUK such as 3 for 2 or 2 for 1 etc and this is when I generally stock up on my favourites.

I do not use this product everyday as I like to mix and match things and not get too used to one scent. I do find it to be a touch overpowering and almost headache inducing at times so although it's a great product at a reasonable price I am only rating it 3/5.

Summary: A nice body cream at a reasonable price with a slightly overpowering scent.
