That Garden Feeling with Yardley London
Yardley London has been around for over 250 years now, and their products are truly some of my faourite (English Rose EDT will be on my repurchase list for eternity). In Canada you can pick up their products in the scents English Lavender, English Rose and Lily of the Valley. I was recently sent some items inspired by spring gardens to try out, their Moisturizing Body Lotion and Luxury Body Wash in the scents English Lavender and English Rose.
Both scents are incredibly realistic, they smell exactly like their names. The English rose is fresh and vibrant and smells just like real roses. There is a hint of magnolia and cassis in there too. While the English Lavender smells warm and calming just like the real stuff. It has hints of geranium and chamomile in it too which add to that relaxing lavender scent feeling.
On to the body washes!

Yardley's Moisturizing Body Lotions has a pump which automatically makes them pretty awesome to me ( I mean I love lotions in pumps, it is just so mess free). The lavender lotion has lavender extract, shea butter and borage oil in it that make it feel rich and conditioning. It is a great lotion to apply before bed, which is when I usually use it because it smells so relaxing, but also after time in the sun because of the lavender oil. The rose lotion has rose water, evening primrose oil and monoi oil.
One pump is enough lotion for one of my arms, I usually do two at once and cover both my arms and hands. The formula is a little but thin but not watery. It isn't greasy either, its a nice level of hydration for my skin in the summer where I want something a little lighter. The scent is strong though, it makes for a great layering effect if you're going to layer if with the matching body sprays (which is exactly what I do in the warmer weather).
Overall I really adore Yardley London's body washes and body lotions. They are great for anytime of year! They have a formula I like and that smell amazing. The lavender is one that I like at night to help me relax, while the rose is my daytime go to (I get complements every single time I wear it from my husband). They have affordable drug store pricing and are quality products. I definitely recommend trying them out this spring-summer.
