Hi! I'm Lindsay Ferrier. You might remember me from a blog called Suburban Turmoil. Well, a lot has changed since I started that blog in 2005. My kids grew up, I got a divorce, and I finally left the suburbs for the heart of Nashville, where I feel like I truly belong. I have no idea what the future will hold and you know what? I'm okay with that. Thrilled, actually. It was time for something totally different.
July 5, 2011
Have you ever heard of bodycology?
I hadn’t until I agreed to try out bodycology’s rich&creamy duo- which includes Body Wash and Lotion- and that’s not surprising, even for a beauty blogger like me, because the line is brand spanking new.
Now that I’ve used both bodycology rich&creamy products for a week, I’m hooked. My skin feels hydrated and my soul feels soothed. Plus, these products smell great! I particularly like the effect that my bodycology Lotion has had on my legs and elbows. Usually, these are problem dry areas for me, but lately they feel much smoother- and the smell really is divine. I really can feel the “hydrating” effect of the rich&creamy Lotion and Body Wash on my skin.
I didn’t realize until now that there aren’t many products on the market that have the look of a boutique-style lotion/body wash, but the price of a supermarket version.
One of the reasons that bodycology pays so much attention to packaging is that it wants to be about more than moisturizing- bodycology bills itself as a state of mind, a sanctuary for women, and a way for them to look and feel their best without having to spend a lot of money to do it.
Beyond that, it provides, according to the company, the most intense hydration available, clinically proven to lock in moisture for 24 hours. bodycology also promises its rich&creamy moisturizers will immediately improve your skin’s moisture by 153%.
bodycology’s rich&creamy line has lots of different varieties and fragrances to meet your needs, including Skin Softening, Hydrating and Advanced Healing. All rich&creamy products contain aquation Hydration Technology, an exclusive moisture complex of essential nutrients including Glycerin to add silky, all-day hydration, Jojoba Extract to improve skin’s texture and Petrolatum to act as a barrier to harsh elements.
Choose from: rich&creamy Skin Softening Body Wash with Silk and Avocado Oil rich&creamy Hydrating Body Wash With Aloe Vera and Vitamin E rich&creamy Nourishing Body Wash With Soy and Shea Butter rich&creamy Skin Softening Body Lotion With Silk and Avocado Oil rich&creamy Hydrating Body Lotion With Aloe Vera and Vitamin E rich&creamy Advanced Healing Body Lotion With Cocoa and Shea Butter. That’s something for just about everyone!

It would have to be the hydrating formula for me. My ankles never seem to get enough moisture.
werled@hotmail.com
I think I’d try the Advanced Healing with Cocoa and Shea butter. The lotions I’ve tried say “24 hour moisturizing” but never seem to live up to that claim!
I would want to try the skin softening Silk and Avocado oil. It sounds wonderful.
justannc@comcast.net
Sounds great!
Yum yum. I think I would have to go with advanced healing. Summer makes my skin so unhappy!!! Libbydeatsch@gmail.com
I would pick the ultra rich one, although the one with avocado sounds great, too.
Like Boomama, I have very dry skin and need something good, but would prefer something lighter in the summer!

I’ve never heard of this brand, but products sound fabulous.
I would love to try the body wash with soy and shea butter as well as the healing body lotion with cocoa and shea butter. Sometime in the past couple of years my soft supple skin has been replaced with my grandmother’s dry, crinkly looking skin! Accckkkkkkkk…..
I’ve tried a couple things from Bodycology and loved them. I would love the try the new line!
Sounds lovely, I’d like to try rich&creamy Hydrating Body Wash With Aloe Vera and Vitamin E… Really, any of them would be great.
halfwattedsmile@comcast.net
I’ve never heard of bodycology before, but all of their products sound amazing!
I’ll be honest and say I dont treat it well. I shave dry legs, I don’t use lotion daily, and I probably go out in the sun without SPF, not the ideal lotion ambassador, but I really want to get healthy looking skin….now that i’m approaching me….eeek….30’s
I’m a big fan of exfoliating and then lathering on the moisturizing cream!

I have some Bodycology Body Spray. I would love to try some of the other products. Thanks!
I have tried the Coconut-Lime spray and lotion from Bodycology. The scents were heavenly. Would like to try the lotion with Avocado Oil  and Silk. I imagine it would smell great.
i would get the hydrating
Nourising, please.Â
The shea butter formula would be perfect not only for me but for many of my clients. I love a product that does it’s job and I can share with them. (I’m a stylist)
Living in AZ skin gets real dry. I looked at the hydrating but I think Shea Butter is the best sooooooo I go with Nourishing
Blogged here. http://sodahoney.blogspot.com/2011/07/bodycology-rich-reviews-and-sweepstakes.html
I love their products! The hydrating would be the best for my skin.
