Lightweight body lotion

I am looking for a reasonably priced lightweight body lotion, so many I have tried eg Nutrogena and Dove but I find them too heavy, can anyone recommend a lighter inexpensive one please.

Maybe not a regular choice but the Child Farm moisturiser is very lightweight and smells nice.

Cerave, the lotion in the pump dispenser (I use it on my face).

I use up any body lotions that are too heavy by rubbing them into straight from the shower wet skin.

I use the aerosol spray ones. Aveeno or vaseline.

You say you've tried Neutrogena but have you tried their Hydroboost range? Full of hyaluronic acid and absorbs in a trice - absolute game changer.

I second Sparkletastics suggestion - I’m currently using Neutrogena’s hydro boost body gel cream and am liking it far more that the other Neutrogena body lotions I’ve used.
I bought it after I saw that Sali Hughes had rated it amongst her 30 best body lotions, hair and makeup products costing less than £20 and thought that at £4.99 (although think I paid a bit more than that in Boots) it was worth trying.

The yellow Vaseline lotion is lovely and light.

Another vote for the Cera Ve lotion.
It's light enough to use before dressing, and I think my skin is much more even- toned since I started using it most days.
I bought it from Amazon, after seeing it recommended by a dermatologist on the Menopause Doctor website.

Nivea Express Hydration is lovely. Lightweight, absorbs quickly, but still moisturising enough. Love the smell too.

Body Shop Moringa body milk. It's in a pump spray bottle, lasts ages, non greasy & smells gorgeous. Not heavy or sticky & absorbs really quickly.

Thanks everyone, great ideas.
