Everyday hand lotion - hand cream discontinued by Evolution of Smooth - review by DeliciousSurprise

The Everyday hand lotion by EOS (Evolution of Smooth) is a highly portable squeeze tube of lotion. Shaped like an egg, it's an interesting bottle that fits easily in a pocket or purse. It's 97% natural and it's free of parabens, phthalates, lanolin, and dyes, rendering it hypoallergenic and perfect for people with sensitivities or allergies. Although it's intended as a hand lotion, you could use this on any part of your body that needs a little extra moisture and TLC. This feels more like a travel sized lotion, since it's so small and easy to carry.

Although men and women could benefit from this lotion, the very fruity scent might be better suited towards the more feminine among us.

This lotion is somewhere between the viscosity of a thin and thick lotion; it's middling, as far as I'm concerned. I think the best, most important attribute of it, though, is just how quickly it absorbs--you rub it in, and there's no greasy residue that can so often be found with lotions. The bottle is really pleasant to use; it squeezes easily and I never felt like I was getting more than I wanted.

EOS's Everyday lotion comes in three scents: cucumber melon, berry, and unscented. Mine is the berry, which is fruity and sweet, and it does smell like mixed berries. It does linger for a while, so if you're around people that are scent sensitive they'll be able to tell that you've got something on.

A little bit really goes a long way with this one; if you use a little, it spreads easily and then quickly absorbs into your skin. Even when I used more than I should have, it became a little bit tacky, and that disappeared in about thirty seconds. If you're with someone that doesn't like the odor, a quick wash with a gentle soap will wash it off--so you're not stuck with a scent if you realize you don't actually care for it. I do feel like I need to reapply it a little more frequently than I'd like, possibly due to the thinner consistency.

I haven't used up the bottle I have, but I think it would be difficult to expel the lotion once you get towards the end of the tub, since there's no tube to squeeze and the whole thing is round.

The lotion came in an oval tube/bottle that's made of thin plastic. It has a snap top that you can pull up to dispense the lotion--but it's not so easy to pull that it would be easily opened in a bag.



The colour of the bottle also matches the scent you got, since I purchase the berry it came in a pretty pink tube; cucumber melon comes in a green tube, and the unscented comes in a blue tube.

Please bear in mind that this lotion tastes kind of yuck (like most lotions) so you probably shouldn't give it a lick. In addition, it does contain glycerin and other possible irritants, so I wouldn't recommend it if you're planning sexy time activities.
