VERDICT
March 2nd, 2016: After my parents "stole" my Intensive Healing lotion (aka IHL) I went to get another bottle of it, but then I saw they had this coconut lotion, and I LOVE all things coconut, so I decided to branch out and try this one out instead. It's no IHL, but it is still nice.

Like the IHL this is also lightweight and sinks right into the skin, but I feel like it's not as silky smooth and nourishing. It's still a nice lotion to use on the regular though when your skins on good behavior.

I was hoping this had a deliciously coconut-y scent, but perhaps because of the orchid it doesn't really smell like coconut at all...the orchid definitely overpowers the coconut, but it's still a nice scent and not at all strong or overpowering.

While it is nice, and the packaging is prettier with the beautiful purple color and picture of coconut and orchid, I'm gonna stick to my IHL; but I will still definitely use this up.

VERDICT
I LOVE this lotion. It's got me through some rough skin times. If I have a bad reaction to something and my face goes crazy I know that I can just cut everything out and fall back onto my St. Ives Nourished and Smooth Oatmeal Scrub/Mask and this lotion to get my skin back to normal. I don't know what it is, but the combination of the two products just works for my skin. 

The formula is lightweight, yet still super moisturizing and nourishing and it sinks right into the skin. It does have a slight scent but nothing obtrusive or strong. It just feels nice and silky smooth on the skin.

Even my parents love it...they actually loved it so much that they took/"stole" my entire bottle, so I need to get another one.

VERDICT
I LOVE this scrub/mask. This gets along with my skin so well, and it really is a gentle scrub. It leaves your face soft and smooth and hydrated, but I particularly like to use this to soothe and heal my skin when it's freaking out or not doing too well. It just really calms it down and helps it heal.

When I have a bad reaction to something or my skin isn't doing too well, I like to eliminate everything and get really basic with my skincare and this is my go to cleanser scrub/mask. Because I cycle through so many products I don't use this regularly anymore, but whenever my skin is struggling I immediately run to this and like to keep to it on hand.

This is definitely my number one go to at the drugstore.
