The Body Shop Vitamin C Glow-Boosting Moisturizer 1-star Reviews
Contains 2 types of ALCOHOL
Sadly had to return this item since it was not the former formula. The former formula came in an orange container with black lid and contained no alcohol in the ingredient list. The new formula has 2 types of alcohol in it. Alcohol Denat. being #2 on the ingredient list while Isopropyl Alcohol is #10. Both of these alcohols are not safe to put on skin and offer no skin benefits; they only damage the skin by causing excessive dryness and disturbs the skin barrier. Hard to believe alcohol would be put into a moisturizer, it defeats the sole purpose of a moisturizer. I preferred the old formula.
Disappointed.
Very disappointed that The Body Shop has discontinued their Vitamin C Glow Protect with SPF 30. I've used it for years. The new gel version took 2 weeks to be delivered and it has no SPF protection and just doesn't moisturize like the lotion did.
Change in Formula and Packaging
I adored this moisturizer and even though I don't like the new packaging was excited to reorder when I ran out. I am soooo disappointed they drastically changed the formula. The old Vitamin C moisturizer was cream based with a lovely citrus smell. This is gel based, VERY THING consistency, with the most awful baby aspirin fragrance. It is a totally different product in terms of how it goes on and feels.
Not Moisturizing
I sorry to say I don't like this product. It has a great smell. It dries sticky on my skin and my skin doesn't feel moisturized. It feels dry and that's not what I was expecting at all. I really usually love your products. This one isn't righr for me.
