I would first like to say; sorry for using stock photos. I have used both products till they where empty but they both ended up in the bin before I had a chance to take photos.
I have written about Cocoa Radiant Body Lotion in full and you can read the review here.
Pros:
Contains Cocoa Butter which helps to moisture the skin
Contains Stratys-3 which helps to moisture the deeper layer that most body lotions missies.
Cons:
The scent is far too strong and hangs around all day
Does not absorb quickly. Left my skin feeling sticky (like I was in the gym sticky...eww) all day.
Was there an improvement?
Slightly
RRP:
€4.89 200ml
Would I repurchase:
No
Cocoa Radiant Vitalizing Body Gel Oil
Pros:
Helps to lock in moisture after bathing
Scent is not as pungent as the body lotion
It does absorbe into the skin
Cons:
Its a bit runny and did leave me with far too much product to apply (suggest: change of bottle for more control of product being used)
Can be a bit messy and does not look appealing on the bathroom shelf after a while
Was there an improvement?
It took about a week but I noticed my skin was softer and look far more healthier
Would I repurchase?
Yes
RRP:
€6.99 200ml
Who wins this round?
I think its safe to say Cocoa Radiant Vitalizing Body Gel Oil is the winner this time! For me the big thing was the scent was not overpowering and of course that sticky sensation no where to be seen. It did take some time to sink in but for the price I think I can live with that.
What are your thoughts? Have you used both before? Do you agree with me?

I can never stand overpowering scents, just not appealing! The gel sounds quite good though!
