REVIEW: Melvita Ultra Nourishing Body Balm. My new skincare saviour!

What I loved most about this though was that although it was extremely moisturising, it’s also really light and sinks into the skin well (providing you don’t pour it on by the bucket load. We’ve all been there!). I am a self-confessed lazy body moisturiser. The thought of slathering on something thick and greasy after a nice refreshing bath is my idea of hell (I know, #firstworldproblems) but I genuinely look forward to putting this lovely little – well, it’s actually not little at all, you get a whopping 150ml for your bucks – body balm on every night. (Does that make me ridiculously sad? I think it does doesn’t it. Sad Beauty blogger times! 😉

So, to conclude – conclusions always bring me right back to my English lessons days, just me? …just me then! – the Melvita Nourishing Body Balm in short snappy points, which is something that I find utterly impossible to stick to in any post….

• Extremely nourishing and amazing for even the driest of skin
• Although thick and creamy, the balm sinks in like a dream and isn’t the slightest bit greasy
• The Smell – which I never really touched upon – is actually pretty subtle considering the amount of honey and natural ingredients that make up the balm. A subtle honey, sweet scent that won’t have people running in the opposite direction to you. But may have you running to kitchen for a sweet treat fix. Never a bad thing in my books 😉

You can find the Melvita brand in many shops in the UK – John Lewis, Whole Foods and The Garden Pharmacy etc. as well as online. It does retail at the pricier end of what I would pay for a moisturiser, at £23 but as I mentioned above – it is ridiculously luxurious, you do get a generous amount and it also takes the tiniest of product to spread and cover your body. Good value for money in my opinion. And that is coming from Primark’s and Poundland’s biggest fan, so that’s saying something 🙂
