Review // Vaseline Spray & Go Body Moisturiser - Cocoa Radient


I popped into Boots today for a lunch deal and ended up spending £4.99 on Vaseline's latest product. Damn you Boots! I present to you my new moisturiser... theVaseline Spray & Go in Cocoa Radient.

I was intrigued from the off when I saw this on the stand, a moisturiser, in a can that takes seconds to moisturise and dry your legs? Prefect I thought. I've since tried it when I got home and was initially incredibly impressed, the cocoa scent isn't too artificial or overbearing on your legs, the spray action coated my legs nicely and moisturising was an incredibly smooth and carefree process. Perfect for someone like me who just wants to get dressed post shower.

I was, however, annoyed to find that I had to actually rub the spray into my skin (sounds stupid, but I find this the most tedious part, i.e when you hands are all slippery and you can't hold the canister or tube of moisturiser to apply more product). I thought I could quite literally, spray & go, but in the long run this isn't too much of an issue, just me being pedantic. I'm also not entirely convinced of the 'moisturises in seconds' claim. Granted I felt it did add moisture to my skin, but it didn't absorb in seconds and I had to dance around my bedroom to the radio before I felt it was dry enough to get dressed (this activity is nothing out of the ordinary though, so again I can't really pick apart Vaseline for this one!).

Overall, a nifty concept coupled with Vaseline's moisturising expertise. I'd recommend giving this a go if you're admittedly a bit lazy with your moisturising routine (guilty as charged!), or you're constantly on the go.

Available in 3 'scents', Cocoa, Aloe Vera and Essential Moisture and priced at £4.99.

How do you feel about moisturising? Chore or something you enjoy?

  1. This looks quite snazzy, I can imagine how slippery the bottle would have been afterwards which would be annoying. I found the same thing happened with the new Nivea in shower moisturiser.

  5. I'm just after picking up a Vaseline Cocoa Butter body oil, but this looks fab too. Love the design of the bottle, I haven't seen this is any Boots or pharmacies around me yet though unfortunately!

  7. I went into Superdrug the other day asking for this, only I'd got the Nivea in-shower one and this mixed up in my head, complete blonde moment! I'v got to admit I think moisturising's a chore. I love the results and even the fragrance if you get one with a nice scent but it's definitely not something I look forward to actually doing!
