When my cousin’s girlfriend arrived here in Manila from the US, she gave me this lotion knowing the beauty junkie that I am.
At first glance, it may look like a typical Philosophy knock-off, mainly because of its resembling packaging. But this Hand & Body Lotion from Body Recipes* has something more to offer. The yummy hazelnut scent makes me want to sniff it over and over again! It reminds me of my dire craving for sweets.
What makes this lotion extra special is its uber lightweight feel, which is perfect for those with oily skin tones like mine. Unlike other lotions and body butters, this never gives me a heavy feeling every time I apply it.
It’s absolutely grease-free, like you won’t feel it’s even there! Even if you try washing your hands just right after application, you won’t notice a slippery, greasy feel. Well, based on my experience. 
I don’t think it’s available in the Philippines right now. I believe it’s a different brand from the local HBC’s Body Recipe skin care line. In the meantime, you can take a peek on available Body Recipes* products through eBay.
