I Love.. Strawberries & Cream and Raspberry & Blackberry // Valentine's Day 2015

Does your the boy/girl you like, like fruit? Consider wearing I love...'s fruit-scented bath and body products this Valentine's Day (or even better, ask the boy/girl you like to get this for your Valentine's Day prezzie). 


I love... is a UK brand that landed in Canada last year. The I love... range is minimal and easy to navigate. There are 3 products - bubble bath/shower cream, body butter, and now fruit spritzers. Each of the products are available in all four of their delicious scents - Coconut & Cream, Mango & Papaya, Raspberry & Blackberry and Strawberries & Cream. I love the adorable packaging of I love... cute and simple with lots of hearts and you can easily see the product inside the containers. 

Fittingly, for the Valentine's Day season, I've got 3 pink/red body products to share with you! 


Strawberries & Cream Bubble Bath and Shower Creme (400mL, $9.99)
While I enjoy the I love... Strawberries & Cream scent, the aroma is a bit artificial. Keep this in mind if you like "natural" smelling products. The Bubble Bath/Shower Creme itself is an interesting consistency. It's a little watery to be a gel and is thin enough that a little runs through the spaces between my fingers before I can get a chance to lather it up. The lather is a bit weak, thus I prefer the product as a body wash as opposed to a bubble bath. In terms of cleaning properties, the product is fairly mediocre


Raspberry & Blackberry Nourishing Body Butter (200mL, $9.99)
Again, it's not the most natural smelling, but I still like it! Compared to something like the Body Shop Body Butters, the scent of I love...'s is lighter, the moisturizer feels more whipped and thinner in consistency, and it absorbs more quickly and doesn't leave a residue with just as much hydration to the skin. All in all, a great option for body butters, especially if you enjoy the scent. 

Raspberry & Blackberry Spritzer (100mL, $4.99)
Oddly enough, I prefer the scent of the fruit spritzer to the body butter of the same Raspberry & Blackberry scent. It's slightly sweeter with a bit more punch. This fruit spritzer smells like spray-in-your-mouth candies that I used to use as a kid. I'm so tempted to spray the I Love.. Raspberry & Blackberry Spritzer in my mouth, though it probably won't taste quite as good as it smells as the ingredients include alcohol, water, and fragrance. The strength of the scent dissipates after 10 minutes to leave a lighter scent, which sticks around for a little over three hours. It's not the longest lasting but it's a good thing you can layer this with the body butter to smell extra fruity!

Overall, a great drugstore option for bath and body products. Now that I've tried the Strawberries & Cream and the Raspberry & Blackberry scents, I'm so down to try out the Mango & Papaya (as I prefer tropical scents over berry scents). 

I love... is exclusively available at Shoppers Drug Mart and PharmaPrix stores in Canada.

Have you tried I love...? What kind of scents do you like in your bath and body products?
