MARLOWE. No. 002 Body Lotion 15 oz Pump, Original, Revitalizing Dry Skin Lotion with Aloe Vera & Amino Acids, Hydrates & Nourishes, Lightly Scented

So much to love about this lotion! First, the smell is amazing. I got the classic scent. It smells clean and not overpowering at all. My wife is sensitive to smells (and I love smelling good), so it was wonderful when she told me that it didn’t affect her and that it was a fairly neutral scent (which is why I annoyed the one with sandalwood). Next, it feels great. It is a little thicker than many lotions, but it provides good coverage and excellent smoothness. It dries quickly and doesn’t leave you feeling greasy. Lastly, it is important for me to limit parabens and phthalates wherever I can. The only p-word this lotion has is the PETA seal of approval! So, you can feel good about buying a product that makes your skin feel good!

Good body lotion, I like the Marlowe line - I use the soap and the face scrub. They should make a shaving cream or oil if they don’t already.

I’ve really been enjoying this lotion so far. It’s very easy to apply and not too thick or greasy. A little bit goes a long way. It has a very pleasing scent but is not too overpowering or too feminine like a lot of lotions. This really is a good choice for men. I get hints of citrus, pine, and cucumber from the scent. It’s really nice! One caveat is that it is a bit lighter, so it may not be ideal for those in very dry climates or with very dry skin. I live in Florida, so I appreciate that it’s lighter since thicker lotions make you sweat terribly in the hot and humid weather here. Even so, I found I usually need to two applications per day to achieve a good level of moisturizing.

After trying nearly every lotion over the counter, I love Marlowe because it doesn't have that weird sticky residue that most moisturizers have that seal in moisture for 24 hours. And it's light weight which makes it good for summer, and for winter I just add a second application as needed. I bought the 002 which I use for my face and no issues. The 003 is thicker and it's good too. The scent reminds me of cucumber. Highly recommend it, but of course, everyone has their own unique needs. I hope they never change the formula.

I really love the quality of this lotion. I have dry skin in the winter and I’m very picky with what ingredients I use. For the price, I think it may be the best value for quality out there. My wife likes it on me too and she’s very picky about the scent. It’s a very clean, refreshing and masculine scent that hits the spot.

I am big fan of Marlowe products and also use their Marlowe. No. 102 Men's Body Scrub Soap. This lotion smells great and does very good job moisturizing. However, the party is over about 2/3's down the bottle whereas the pump can no longer dispense product. This has happened on each of the 5 or 6 times I have purchased this item. I then need to carefully balance the dispenser upside down (see photo) and unscrew the applicator cap each morning to get the remaining product out. I would give product 5 stars if not for this unfortunate problem.

I have been searching for something with similar notes to Nest Indigo without luck. I definitely wasn't having any luck in the women's beauty section. I stumbled upon this and was happy to see some of the same notes. Don't get me wrong, this lotion does NOT smell like perfume nor does it smell feminine. It just has similar base notes that pair and layer well for me. I am pleasantly surprised that the pump does not dispense outrageous amounts of runny lotion. You get a controlled amount of thick lotion that rubs in quickly leaving no sticky, slippery residue. It feels great and lasts. The scent is very subtle and clean. I would definitely categorize this as a unisex scent. The formula is non-irritating, cruelty free, and a little goes a long way.

The lotion is great for your skin and has a nice scent. The main problem is the packaging. The pump is literally a pos. It took almost 10 minutes to get anything through tube and out the nozzle. Shaking it, taking the pump out and reseating it does nothing. The worst part is after you use 2/3 of the bottle the pump ceases to work. At that point you have to unscrew the pump and start squeezing it out manually. I’ve actually talked to a Marlowe product specialist who said that the formula is so thick that’s what happens. No more for me this last purchase is just that—my last. I’m sure there are equal or better men’s skin lotion that uses better packaging.
