“this body lotion is it! i cannot emphasize how amazing it truly is. i was looking for a lotion that was quick to apply to skin, and would absorb without leaving a greasy feeling afterward. the sake body lotion definitely performed in that sense. i love how quickly my skin absorbs it and the smell is incredibly neutral and does not bother me. i never want to use another lotion again. can't wait to have this as my forever lotion!”
