Packaging - 8/10 not too exciting but fairly attractive
Scent - 10/10 inoffensive and pretty unscented
Rub in ability - 10/10 rubs in really easily
Moisturisingness - 18/20 really moisturising

Brilliant for sensitive skin as it is made from colloidal oatmeal which is really gentle, there is an extra moisturising version too.

Highly recommended

Can we do liquid eyeliner in preparation for the party season next please ?

I use

Tesco Aloe Vera Body Lotion.
£1.47 for 500ml

Packaging - 2/10 (Very plain, reasonably ugly squeezy green bottle)

Scent - 8/10 (Smells clean and fresh but not overpowering)

Rub in - 9/10 (Easy to rub in and sinks in quickly)

Moisturisingness - 17/20 (great but not sure about really, really dry skin)

It's brillaint value so you can really slater it on.

Good on my sensitive skin too. If I put anything else on my legs immediately post shaving my legs go all dotty.

Dove body cream (white tub) £6.

Packaging 6/10 (tubs meah you can get it all out)
Scent 8/10 (minimal = good)
Rub in ness 10/10 (not greasy)
moisturising 19/20 (I'd say)

=43

And it lasts for ages.

Cowshed Cheeky Cow Nourishing Body Cream

packaging - 6/10 looks trendy in yer bathroom but I prefer a pump
scent 1/10 all grapefruit no lavender
rubin abililty 3/10
moisturingness 7/20

17/50 unimpressed (glad I didn't pay for it, a v well meaning present from a friend, now passed on to a grapefruit lover)

Doublebase - about £10-£11 per 500g (£2 per 100 ml)
Packaging 4/10 - it's a prescription thing, though you can buy it, so not glam, but it's a clear pump dispenser and the texture of the gel looks quite funky.
Scent 8/10 - no scent, but not medical either
Rub-in-ability - 9/10 - really quick, not greasy
Moisturisingness - 20/20 - it's amazing. Got it originally for horribly itchy rash on stretchmarks when pregnant and it transformed my nights pretty much instantly - beats E45 hands down.

41/50, and would be a near perfect score if it came in a funky package.

Clarins Energizing Hydra-Wear Express Body Lotion
£25.00 for 200ml

Packaging - 8/10 (Classic plain Clarins style, only thing letting it down is the squeezy lid)
Scent - 9/10 (Light, clean & fresh)
Rub in - 10/10 (Soaks in quickly and feels silky on skin)
Moisturisingness - 13/20 (lovely but texture a bit thin to have make any real difference)

Overall - 40/50 icod - I think we need to add value for money on as a category too.

Tesco b natural
Intensive Body Cream
£2.99 ( I think) for 150ml
Selling point...NO mineral oil or parabens plus organic Aloe Vera

Packaging 8/10 - nice green and cream pump
Scent 7/10 - smells lovely and also worthy!
Rub-in ability - 8/10 - quite thick and heavy but definitely worth it
Moisturisingness - 18/20 - really good - can feel it the next day too

oops ... = 41/50

Coddy, how is the scoring working on this? I mean, if I review my Kiehl's stuff and give it all 10s, will it automatically win even if no-one else votes for it?
