I reviewed Kosé´s Nature & Co Three Butters Lip Balm and Hand & Nail Care Balm some time ago but tried some other products I should review now.
I got 2 body care products though they are supposedly also to be used on the face (but haven´t tried that, used on my body only!).
I ordered the Three Butters Face & Body Lotion (250ml) and the Three Butters Face & Body Balm (150g) and have used up the balm and half of the lotion by now.
When ordering the lotion I should have had in mind that the Japanese have a different understanding of what´s a lotion. Lotion basically means toner and so this product is a liquid and not a milky lotion as most of us expect knowing Western brands.
Even though the Face & Body Lotion is liquid it´s a very nice refreshing and moisturizing product to use on the body in the hotter months. It´s not sticky and just leaves my skin soft and silky. It´s more like a body splash with a milky *slightly* viscuous texture.
The Face & Body Balm however is a very soft buttery body balm with a slick and emollient texture. It´s perfect for the cooler months as it´s very nourishing and rich.
Both products have the signature scent all Kosé Nature & Co products sport, fresh herbal scent with a slightly fruity note.
Overall nice products albeit a bit on the pricier side. I got my pieces from eBay for around US$17/each.
I also got a travel sized 83ml tube of the Shower Gel for less than US$5 recently so it would fit to review it here.
It´s a transparent gel which foams up nicely to create a good amount of lather. since it´s not a shower cream it´s not really moisturizing but it doesn´t dry out my skin either.
I wish the scent would be a little stronger though as this has a very lovely but subtle scent.
The 83ml tube lasts me surprisingly well but I usually don´t use much shower gel as I like to create lather with a shower puff so a little goes a long way.
According to the seller it´s not available individually usually and it´s limited. Alphabeautyuk on eBay still has couple of pieces left for those interested.

with that adorable packaging, who wouldn't want to have one like that??!
Haha, I always thought it was weird when toners were called lotions.
& the packaging kind of looks like L'Occitane =P

Thanks for the review :)
I'm subscribed to your blog, even tho I live in Japan! It's good to read your reviews and know what is a decent product to buy. I almost bought the Nature and Co Honey shampoo and cod. today, but remembered to check your blog! Can you do a review of them? I like the hand cream you reviewed before...
Thanks!
