Advantages: Lovely smelling, moisturising

Disadvantages: Price

Most of the Sanctuary range have a standard scent, sort of like spiced tangerines! This is a very warm, tangy aroma and I personally really like it, but it you aren't so keen their moisturisers might not be for you. The scent lasts a few hour noticeably and is still there faintly if you smell the skin closely later on.

This one is in a small tub in the standard orange and white colours. You can get a large size or a mini (usually in a gift pack).
The texture is quite thick for a moisturiser (the consistency is quite like a thick hair conditioner - although this you obviously don't wash out!) but one on the skin is easy to spread and sinks in fast.
The range does have some focus on essential oils and natural products (I am sure mixed with some preservatives and not so natural stuff!). But despite having sensitive skin I don't find that this reacts. I have also used it on my face on occasions and have never had any negative effects. It leaves my skin feeling quite soft and smooth and the springiness lasts several days!
It is pricier than some high street brand moisturisers but I like the longer term effect is had on my skin in comparison. There is also the advantage of having matching fragranced bath and face products and there are often good offers on it.
