Brand: Swedish Beauty Lotion: Aloe There Rating: 2 out of 5 Debut Year: 2009 Type: Moisturizer Bottle Size: 18 oz. Price: $13-20 Ingredients: N/A Scent: It’s one of the “fresh” smelling lotions, very clean. Normally, I don’t mind those scents, but this one really rubbed me the wrong way. I can’t say why, but it was bizarre how much I disliked it. I hate the smell of “milk and honey” lotions, and this lotion has honey extract in it. I’m wondering if that’s the cause of my dislike. Lotion: It was a little thick, so I was expecting it to moisturize quite nicely. Well, it didn’t. I was feeling dry within an hour of application. It’s marketed as “aloe-based,” but truthfully, aloe is in the middle of the ingredients list. It’s certainly not a main component of the formula. Water and cetyl alcohol are the top ingredients. Cetyl alcohol can cause skin irritation in those people who have eczema, so I’m not sure why this lotion is marketed as being for sensitive skin. Color: Not applicable as this is a moisturizer. Special: The sample size of this is quite large compared to other lotion samples, which are usually .5 oz or maybe 1 oz. This lotion’s sample size is a 2 oz. bottle. I’d definitely recommend trying it out before buying the regular, giant bottle. Also, this lotion is paraben-free.

I agree that it is a fresh scent. I wasn't a big fan of it. I didn't feel very moisturized from this. I tried a packet, but never bought a bottle. There are better moisturizers out there for me.

This is my FAVORITE moisturizer! To me, the scent was light and clean, the lotion medium thickness, and application very smooth. It's not super moisturizing, but that's one of the reasons I like it so much, it's perfect for those hot summer days and nights as it's quickly absorbed and doesn't have a heavy feeling.
5/5 stars

I really love the smell of this lotion!!! My hubby says it's too strong, but he says that about almost everything. It;s not as moisturizing as my Hempz Age defying formula which I can't g4et enough of! For a mid level moisturizer it is perfect for me.

I usually love clean minimal scents, but was not a fan of the smell. It reminded me of baby wipes or baby powder.
The lotion is on the medium/thick side but rubs in nicely. It does not leave me feeling sticky or greasy. I find the lotion to be about average in moisturizing.
3.5/5
