Dream Cream Hand and Body Lotion

Dream Cream is Lush's number one hand and body lotion product and upon hearing this, I was intrigued. What makes it number one? It can't be that good, can it? I decided to give it a try...

I went onto the Lush Cosmetics website and ordered the 450g tub. I don't know why I ordered the biggest size, I guess I just felt optimistic that I wouldn't be wasting my money.

When it arrived, I immediately gave it a try. Taking off the lid, I was instantly hit with the smell of lavender (and I love lavender!) and a hint of the rose water and tea tree oil. I fell in love with the smell instantly.

Applying the cream to my body, I noticed that it had quite a medium thickness in consistency, like Tropical Jungle or Karma Kream. Its application was smooth and Dream Cream absorbed easily into my skin, making my body feel instantly nourished and I loved how it didn't make my skin feel greasy like some body lotions do.

The oat milk in Dream Cream is used to cool and calm the skin so if you have eczema, dry skin or hot, irritated skin, then I suggest that you buy Dream Cream because it has all of the ingredients to help skin that needs a bit of TLC.

Rose water also helps calm the skin and lends a hand to reduce redness or any irritation, so if you have a bad sunburn (like I did!) then the rose water in Dream Cream will help give your damaged, sunburnt skin some love and will make it less painful whilst it gets to work on soothing the area.

Chamomile blue oil, lavender and tea tree oil all help calm the skin and are wonders to help any skin that needs healing so again, if you're suffering from sunburn right now, these ingredients will speed up the healing process of the burnt areas of skin.

I used Dream Cream religiously for my sunburn and it helped cool and soothe it, just like Lush state and my skin felt instantly rejuvenated. Obviously, it didn't work overnight because sunburn is a pain to get rid of, but in a week, my skin didn't feel sore, the peeling had gone and all I was left with was a silly tan line on my back.


I also used this lotion when I had a sudden onset of dry skin on my leg. I applied Dream Cream and after a few days, the dry skin had gone.

Overall, I completely understand why this is Lush's number one hand and body lotion. It worked absolute wonders for my skin. Even though I don't suffer from dry skin that often, when I do, my immediate go-to cream is this.

And...If you don't believe me on how good Dream Cream can be, then get a small tub for yourself and try it out. Let me know what you think of it in the comment section!

Description on Lush:

This simple cream works like a dream on upset skin: cooling and soothing ingredients like oat milk, rose water and chamomile blue oil calm down hot and itchy skin. That's why it's one of our bestsellers, with many of you telling us it gives great relief from eczema. We steep oats in hot water to make oat milk.
