Review: Lush: Artemis Cream


Artemis Cream is a Body Lotion that was only available at a Forum Party.
It was named after Forumite (user of the Lush UK forum) Artemis, who had been bugging Lush to make a Body Lotion scented with raspberry and lime.
So they did.

Ingredients:
Fresh Lime Infusion (Citrus aurantifolia), Almond Oil (Prunus dulcis), Cocoa Butter (Theobroma cacao), Organic Raspberry Seed Oil (Rubus idaeus), Glycerine, Staeric Acid, Triethanolamine, Fresh Raspberry (Rubus idaeus), Bergamot Oil (Citrus Aurantium bergamia), Myrrh Resinoid (Commiphora murrha), Lime Oil (Citrus aurantifolia), Cetearyl Alcohol, Isoeugenol, *Limonene, *Linalool, *Benzyl Benzoate, *Eugenol, Perfume, Merhylparaben, Propylparaben. *Occurs naturally in essential oils.

Artemis Cream is a Body Lotion with a very fruity smell.
It's a bit of a sweet and sour Raspberry and Lime scent.
It isn't exactly sour but not overly sweet either, more of a mix.
The Raspberry and Lime really complement each other and blend very well in to an enchanting scent.
This is once again a Lush scent that can't be described very well, you just have to smell it for yourself (Lush scents have a tendency to be that way).

Artemis Cream is one of the lighter Body Lotions, just like Vanilla Dee-lite.
It is nowhere near as hydrating as Dream Cream or oven Charity Pot.
It is a light Body Lotion that spreads very easily on your skin and is easily absorbed.
It doesn't make your skin greasy or extremely hydrated, but it does make your skin smooth and soft, like your skin is covered in an Artemis Cream layer that protects it.
Because of it's fresh scent and because it is one of the lighter Body Lotions, it's a perfect Body Lotion for spring and summer!

What I really like about Artemis Cream is that it is the Body Lotion with the longest lasting scent ever!!!
If you apply it on your skin on tuesday morning, you can still smell it very well (read: fairly strong) on wednesday morning.
Most of Lush's Body Lotion's have a scent that can still me smelled 24 hours later, but not as strong as this one.

Verdict: Amazing smell that lasts for ages (longest smelling Lush Body Lotion ever), light Body Lotion that is perfect for spring and summer.
I find the scent uplifting and energising and I ham really have 3 bottles of this!
