  Pros

  First, I prefer body lotions over perfumes. Since perfumes tend to be too strong for me, I prefer the more subtle scents of body lotions. I've tried about 6 different bath and body lotions, and you can actually find them quite cheaply, around 8,000 won, if you look on overseas direct purchase websites. The application is definitely smoother and more moisturizing than the same line of creams. However, the moisturizing power is about half of that of the creams. I think you'll find the lotions comfortable to use from early summer to early fall, and the creams will be better from the beginning of winter to spring. The scent lasts a long time, but the top note and base note are quite different. Since I prefer the base note, I usually don't use the mist, but if you want the strong scent to last, I recommend using the mist from the same line consistently (I just use the mist lightly on my hair). I started with the rumored 'Pink Chiffon' that Taeyeon used, and the very girlish scent was amazing, but I've tried several other products like Moonlight Pretty Escape and Peach to explore different options. Currently, I recommend Mad About You for spring and summer, and Paris Amour for a more mature scent in fall and winter. Paris Amour goes perfectly with the sexy vibe of Victoria's Secret - long black hair, black dress, it's really captivating and I think everyone will love it. It's been my favorite so far.

  Cons

  If your skin type is not too dry, these body lotions should generally work well for you. However, if you suffer from seborrheic dermatitis, it's best to avoid applying them to those affected areas. I personally have a bit of seborrheic dermatitis on my elbows, and I've experienced it spreading after using these lotions on that area. So I've been very careful to avoid applying the lotion directly on those problem spots.

  Tip

  I've also been using body creams and shower gels along with the body lotions. The body creams are definitely heavier than the lotions, and even if they're from the same product line, the scents can be quite different sometimes. So I'd recommend choosing scents that suit you personally, rather than sticking to the same product line. The shower gels can be a bit inconvenient. Since you use them in the wet state, the pump packaging is definitely more convenient than the same opening as the lotions. However, I've found that using a shower gel from the same scent family as the lotion or cream helps the fragrance last much longer. The initial scent from the shower gel seems to really anchor the fragrance when you apply the cream or lotion afterwards. And if you mix and match scents from different product lines, you can create your own unique fragrance blend. The Bath & Body Works products have such a wide variety of distinctive scents, so I enjoy playing around and layering different ones to suit my mood each day. It almost feels like I'm dressing myself in a multi-dimensional, natural color palette of fragrance. The layered scents from the shower gel and lotion/cream create a more complex, nuanced aroma, rather than a single dominant note. It's a fun way to express my personal style and feel a bit more confident.
