Coconut Lotion

I was introduced to this lotion in 2008/2009 when I went to FaceLogic in Las Vegas (I had won a free facial in a contest). During one part of the facial, the tech massaged my shoulders, arms, and hands with a delightful lotion – which turned out to be this one. And, I bought it that day (picture is from one of my 2009 visits). This was back when this lotion came in a metal container. As I have sensitive skin, it was a treat to find something soothing, calming, and moisturizing. It literally calmed my skin down. And, that huge 18fl oz bottle lasted a long time (well over 3-4 months), considering I paid $25 for it back in 2008/2009 (and surprisingly, the price hasn’t increased in the past 10 years). So, it has remained a decent value. The scent, for me, wasn’t overwhelming so that someone could smell me across the room, but it was noticeable so I could detect it. I used it more for a bedtime routine as a result since I found scent quite relaxing. I slept a lot better after using it on my hands, arms, neck, and shoulders. According to the description, it has “subtle green fragrance notes of soy and rice, with the slightest hint of vanilla” – I found it smelled more like shea, milk, and soy. And, even though I wasn’t into the no “paraben, sulfate, or gluten” at the time, it is nice to know this has none of those in it. I would usually get the lotion at the facial place every so often. So I was pleasantly surprised to find it here on Amazon for the same price as it would get it at the facial salon, and that also saves gas money. It is STILL the same lotion formula I remember, even 10 years later. The quality has not changed. The texture is thicker than most brand lotions found in supermarkets, but not like a paste. It easily absorbs into the skin and I only need a few small pumps. For my hands? Barely two pumps. I have not found a comparable lotion on the market at all. Nothing has come close to this lotion and I have tried a lot since I was a teenager (over 25+ years ago). I’m not sure how I feel about the switch from the metal container to plastic though or the reasoning for it, maybe it was something to do with transportation costs or the product quality reduction/degradation over time. I didn’t store it for more than 6 months so I can’t accurately rate that. I will say that as the metal container got empty, I would store it upside down so the lotion slid out, and it slid out quite easily. No product waste – I got every bit of lotion in the container. I’ll be curious to see how this container holds up with that practice as it nears the end … though likely not for a while.

I have been using this lotion for at least 20yr. There is a reason it has been around for such a long time. It is my absolute favorite. The smell is delicate and not overwhelming. I have found that some lotions leave a sticky feeling. This doesn’t. It might seem expensive but lasts, so you’re not wasting money.

This lotion is really nice. Light but moisturizing and I love the scent. Its not floral and not soapy. Its just really pleasant. Its basically my signature scent. Found it initially in a local store years ago but the sweet little ladies who owned the store retired so I turned to Amazon for it. I have ordered it 7 times through amazon and have had consistent quality in the lotion itself. A couple times the bottle has arrived broken though. Luckily amazon shrink wraps it so that the lotion doesn't get all over, but if I didn't have my previous empty bottle to transfer it into I would have been pretty disappointed. One time the bottom was busted out of the bottle, another time the top pump was sheared off. No biggie for me, but if it was a first time purchase I probably would have thrown the whole thing away due to the inconvenience of finding another vessel to store it in. Will buy again 100%

It's a great lotion with a wonderfully light fragrance.

Really luxurious And moisturizing but not greasy And the smell is so good and true mint smell

Mild fragrance hydrates skin nicely.

This is a very nice, moisturizing lotion. I love that the consistency is thick and rich, without being greasy or making your skin like it's wearing an extra heavy layer. My experience is that it absorbs into the skin immediately, leaving you feeling so fresh and silky. When I first used this, I thought about giving it to my husband, because I thought it smelled too "manly" - whatever that is. At any rate, the scent was almost overpoweringly citrusy. However, it fades into a very soft, lovely scent that permeates your night clothes and bed linens in the most pleasant and relaxing way (I use this after I shower before going to bed). I have used this a few times before going out and, believe me, you do not need additional perfume. Because the scent of the lotion mellows out so nicely, I decided to keep it. I like that there are no weird ingredients and NO PARABENS. I hope Archipelago never adds parabens to this formula, or to any of their products, because I will be heart broken. I will definitely purchase this again because it's a very luxurious lotion, it's loaded with good ingredients and essential oils, and I feel like I'm really treating self each time I use it. The only thing that kept me from giving 5 stars is the price. This is probably one of the most expensive lotions I've ever treated myself to...but then again, maybe that's the key word - "treat". Because this is a treat, and because I have learned that I am worth treating myself to nice things, I will be purchasing this again.

I love this fragrance, light and sophisticated. Not greasy and flows over the skin like a charm.

It’s a fantastic lotion. Makes your skin wonderfully soft and supple. The coconut smell is Devine. It soaks in quickly with no greasy feel.
