Mountain Ocean Skin Trip Moisturizer, Coconut, 8-Ounce

This is my favorite lotion.Skin trip is very runny. It goes on light, absorbs fast, and doesn't leave you feeling sticky. Because it has lanolin in it, the moisturizing is long lasting. I have very dry skin, and this does the trick.The scent is very different on each person. My husband uses it, and it smells light, hints of aloe and a touch of coconut, barely any scent. My friend used it and smelled more sunscreen coconut, but a light fragrance. When I use it, I smell like a vanilla cupcake topped with toasted coconut, and it is strong. My husband will put the lotion on his hands, and touch my arm because he thinks it is funny that the scent so drastically changes. While the scent is strong on me, it is not unpleasant, and I find people around me suddenly crave baked goods.

It has a wonderful consistency and a beautiful coconut scent. It is a little pricey, but worked like a charm. Very hydrating.If you don’t like the smell of coconut, it’s probably not for you but otherwise it’s a keeper.

I wanted something that had the scent of coconut, tropical, yummy. After receiving it and trying it, I fell in love with it. It smells yummy and tropical and like coconut. My husband loves it as much as I do. I am hoping I can use it on my face as a moisturizer as well as arms, etc. I put it initially on my arms and found it just melted (perhaps a better word would be it absorbed into my skin, etc.) No greasy feel. I am a teeny bit concerned because there is a note on the bottle that says "best when used fresh". I know not to freeze it or allow it to get ultra hot but not sure what "fresh means". Will it last a few months? weeks? I do not see a date on it showing a Use by Date or anything. Other than that I really do like thisAddition: Have been using it a few days now. Still love this stuff! I have been trying to see if I can be a bit more specific about the scent. Yes it is coconut but I think I will add it gives me a feeling coconut/sun tan lotion scent. That is what I was looking for. Very tropical, very light sent too. Not overwhelming. Have gotten several compliments and people asking me what I have on. I am still amazed as to how quickly it resolves into my skin. One other thing. I do like the ingredients. I am not an expert on this type of stuff but the first ingredient is Purified Water, second is Coconut Oil and third is Aloe Juice. From there we get some things that I don't know what they are, but to be honest I don't care. I like these "main ingredients", love the scent and love the feel. It's a done deal for me.

Extremely moisturizing, lovely natural coconut scent, not greasy, and just so nourishing. So worth the money.

I used to use Skin Trip back in the 80's and LOVED it, and was stoked to see it offered here on Amazon. However, the smell is a bit. . .off. It's still that coconutty scent from way back, but it also smells like it might be rancid or old? It's a bit musky, but not in a good way. I can't decide if it's just a new, worse scent, or if there's something wrong with the lotion. I did use it, and gotta say I LOVE the consistency. It's so easy to put on and absorbs quickly without residue and KEEPS moisturing for a long time. The smell actually dissapated once it was on, but I don't think I'll purchase anymore for fear of it being old or maybe not authentic Skin Trip? Kind of bummed.

Seller rating is five stars for sure. Item arrived super quick and without any damage or leakage.I'd give Skin Trip ten stars if I could, because it is one of the best lotions you can ever use. It's the only thing I use to moisturize my entire body, including my face. I have replaced all of my specialty beauty lotions and creams with this one lotion. It really is a miracle in a bottle. It has limited ingredients which is important for my extremely sensitive skin. I have super cranky, ultra sensitive, breaks-out-if-I-sneeze sort of skin. I get compliments regularly how great it looks.Your skin feels velvety soft because it the consistency is thinner than a traditional lotion. Is spreads out evenly and absorbs ultra quick. You can add more if you feel like you aren't moisturized enough, but you probably will be, and because it's so light you'll never be left with greasy, clogged pores. I use it after sun exposure and literally for everything that needs healing. Coconut oil is naturally antiseptic, ultra moisturizing, skin protecting, and has a natural SPF of about 4. So it's great on nearly everything you throw it at. Can't tell you how many hundreds of dollars I save with the top four items alone. My regimen consists of:1) Clarisonic face brush (I swear by this--it will change your life for the cost of two good facials and all of the extra products to clarify, exfoliate, deep clean your face you will no longer have to buy)2) Dove bar soap (that's right, bar soap)3) Skin Trip Coconut Moisturizer on my face and full body.4) Baking soda for exfoliation (as needed)So that's it. No toners, no night creams, no peels, special exfoliants, wrinkle or eye creams. The only thing I can foresee is those in colder climates may need an additional heavier lotion or cream if exposed to heaters and the elements quite a bit. It gets pretty cold here in the winter, and I have found I end to reapply and more liberally than in warmer times. It still works perfectly just more is needed to retain the moisture for longer periods. Or I use pure coconut oil to give that extra layer or protection without congesting my skin.Tips for using Baking Soda in your beauty regime: Make a paste with some water and dip a cleansing brush in it or slather it all over with your hands and do a face and body scrub. It's super softening and a gentle enough texture to be used by anyone. I usually keep a plastic tub of it in the shower and just scoop handfuls of it and scrub away. Great for softening rough feet even if you feel like you aren't scrubbing very much. Soft feet secret: after your baking soda once over in the shower, slather on the Skin Trip Coconut Moisturizer generously while your feet are still warm, and throw on some socks over top. Do this before bed and wake up with super soft, rested tootsies in the am.Hopefully this review helps you and that you have the same amazing experience with this lotion as I have. Try it and I bet you will love it!
