Advantages: Good value for money, easily absorbed, non greasy

Disadvantages: Very light scent that doesn't last long.

I first bought this lotion when I was looking for a cream to moisturise my skin as well as get rid of stretch marks (I just had a baby). Palmers Skin Firming lotion is smooth and not too dense. As such it glides on easily when applied. Unlike some cocoa butters in the market, Palmers lotion doesn't feel or smell heavy. It has a very light pleasing fragrance which disappears after a few hours. I find this excellent especially if you wear perfume - this lotion won't interfere with it as it's so subtle. The lotion comes in a flattish bottle (space saving) with push pump dispenser (very useful for avoiding messy marks all over the bottle!). The lotion itself whilst is not dense, is not watery either. It feels substantial, smooth and most importantly is absorbed easily and quickly (almost immediately) onto the skin. Excellent value for money and the perfect choice if you like me, require pretty substantial moisturising but do not want to use oil based solutions.

Summary: All round good reliable moisturiser and excellent value for money
