Hello, gorgeous!
Last year, I did a mini haul from Qtrove website and bought a few natural skin care products; Areev Oil of Olives body lotion was one of them. You know, after its first usage only I realized, this would be a perfect product for the summer time, so saved it till March. Now, after using it for a good period of time, I think this is the appropriate time to share my view on this excellent skin care product. Keep scrolling down to know more!
Areev was born out of a desire to create beautiful natural products that delight the senses and nurture the body. The name Areev stems from the Sanskrit words SundAREE and Vidhi meaning beauty and nature.

Texture:
The lotion is pearly white with a semi-thick consistency. It has a distinctive fragrance, like woody musk scent. Does olive smell like that? No idea! I wonder, why this product named as Oil of Olives when there are no olives in the ingredient list😐 Quite misleading!!

My Experience with Areev Oil Of Olives Quenching Body Lotion:
The main reason behind purchasing this product was the brand’s vision. Though, I didn’t do a lot of research before ordering it online (bad habit! as we must know at least what ingredients we are going to put on our skin) but later I found, it’s totally free of chemicals and is Vegan. Relief!!
AREEV OIL OF OLIVES QUENCHING BODY LOTION |
During the colder months, I first tried this lotion, hoping it would moisturize my dry body skin. Alas! It couldn’t satisfy my soul and skin!! My skin desperately needed some extra hydration which it couldn’t deliver. But, then what? I couldn’t throw that away because of this reason, so I saved it for the humid season to show its magic on my skin😉 As believed, it has been doing its job perfectly making my skin truly moisturized and hydrated.
Though the texture is thick but gets absorbed within seconds leaving behind no greasy feeling. The formula is so lightweight that I do feel that it’s an absolutely wonderful product for oily and sensitive skin types that experience skin irritations during warm weather. The fragrance might be bothersome to the sensitive nose but the scent disappears soon after the application. The soothing moisturising formula keeps skin soft and hydrated for a long time; I don’t need to reapply it at night! But mind you, it’s not the same case with the extremely dry skin; reapplication is required multiple times for them.
Plus Points:
- All natural
- Lightweight
- Soothing formula
- Hydrates the skin and makes it soft
- Best suited for normal to oily and sensitive skin types
- Quick absorbent
- No greasiness
- Cruelty Free
- Travel-friendly
Minus Points:
- Not ideal for dry skin types
- A bit pricey
- Fragrance might be an issue with some
Rating: 4.8/5
Conclusion:
Areev Oil of Olives Body Lotion clearly mentions that it is meant for sensitive skin and it’s true to its claims. However, dry skin people cannot get much benefit from it as compared to normal & oily skin beauties. My body lotion is about to finish and I would love to repurchase it & use it during next summers.
If you are looking for a lightweight, soothing body lotion for your sensitive and oily skin then this product is worth trying!

DeleteOh ! I am looking for something which is moisturising enough, as these days my skin is acting dry , don't know why. :(
ReplyDeleteAlisha, then don't try this one!! Go for something hydrating :) Thank you <3
DeletePrice sometimes is not a matter for me, as long as its a lotion that fits into my skin. This one I think may not be it for my dry skin. But sure, I am all for cruelty free.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely, Nava ji, this is not that hydrating one so won't be able to moisturize dry or matured skin!! Thank you :)
