When it came to choosing a new almond oil infused moisturiser I immediately turned to Lush and I was spoilt for choice. I’d been using Sympathy for the Skin for a while and although I really liked it I wanted something different. Enter Ro’s Argan Body Conditioner!
Learn from my mistake and always read the instructions no matter how straightforward something may seem. I didn’t bother reading the instruction of Ro’s Argan Body Conditioner prior to using it and applied it to dry skin. You’re actually supposed to apply this to wet skin (after you’ve had a shower or a bath, not when you’ve been stranded in the rain without an umbrella) before rinsing it off like a hair conditioner.
I had no issue with applying it to dry skin but it definitely works better on wet skin. I don’t bother rinsing it off as I don’t really have the brain capacity to remember to do that but there have been no problems as a result.
It’s incredibly easy to apply but I do find the applying to wet skin aspect a little messy at times as the product has gone flying off of me and hit the wall and floor that's probably just being an absolute mess magnet though. A little does go a long way but it’s helped along dramatically by the water chilling on my skin.
The effect it has had on my skin has made the £15.95 price tag worth it. You may or may not be aware of the fact that I’m an eczema sufferer so I’m always hunting for a moisturiser to either help during a flare up or to actually keep flare ups at bay. Ro’s Argan Body Conditioner has been incredible during flare ups and actually keeping them away. My eczema breakouts usually occur on my neck and inner elbows and I will get dry patches of skin on my stomach but my skin has been pretty damn good recently.
I haven’t had a flare up on my neck and my stomach has been free of dry skin. There is still a patch of eczema on my left inner elbow but that has calmed down dramatically since using this. If I stopped eating so much dairy (my delightful trigger) it would probably disappear quickly but you try being a fussy vegetarian with an addiction to cheese and onion sandwiches.
Admittedly I’m not overly keen on the scent. It’s supposed to smell like rose jam but the scent doesn’t appeal to me whatsoever. Fortunately it’s not all that detectable and it doesn’t seem to affect any perfume I apply to my skin.
I honestly can’t get enough of Ro’s Argan Body Conditioner. I’m starting to wonder how I ever dealt with eczema flare ups without it; it’s left my skin feeling baby soft and looking great. What makes it even better is I’ve been using it every day for almost a month now and I’ve barely used any of it. If you struggle with eczema or just want a great moisturiser in general I’d highly recommend Ro’s Argan Body Conditioner. It’s a little pricey but it’s so worth it!
I dub thee the perfect moisturiser (just ignore the bit about how I dislike the scent).
