Mountain Ocean Skin Trip Coconut Moisturiser


Since I reviewed Lip Trip, I figured I'd visit this classic lotion.

Mountain Ocean sure has a lot of rad products, but they seem to be hard to find. I get mine from the Lexington Co-op.

Skin Trip only comes in coconut to my knowledge. And it's not an overpowering coconut, cuz if it were, I would not be as pumped about this as I am.

It retails at Lexington from 7.99-9.99 for 8 fl. oz.
You can find stores here
[Purified Water, coconut oil, aloe juice, hybrid safflower oil, sorbitol, stearic acid, behentrimonium methosulfate, cetearyl alcohol, emulsifying wax, dimethicone, phenoxyethanol, linoleamidopropyl PG-Dimonium chloride phosphate, dicetyldimonium chloride, lanolin alcohol, benzethonium chloride and fragrance]

A little goes a long way with this stuff. Its got a liquid-like feel compared to other store-brand lotions. It's fantastic for dry elbows, knees, and just an overall body lotion.

In this B-Lo winter, you're skin gets scratchy and really dry. Just put a little of this on and it is soooo soothing. It absorbs quickly and your skin doesn't feel oily or greasy. It feels moisturized, like stepping out of a good shower.
It's especially delightful after shaving. If you nick yourself it doesn't burn. That's a plus.

This isn't organic, vegan, or 100% natural, from what I make of the ingredients. The plus is it doesn't have any poly-crap, like typical lotions have.

I'm not a huge lotion person, I generally just use whatever my mother has in the bathroom, but since a friend turned me onto this, I love it. It's the only lotion I use.

Overall, this is a great little lotion, but it does come with a hefty price tag, unless it's on sale.

Rating: 4 outta 5
