I think it's finally happened. I think St. Ives has discontinued my body lotion. My beloved Whipped Silk.
Guys, I'm not just being dramatic. I'm in mourning. I am so, so picky about lotion. I have to put it on after EVERY shower, without exception. My skin is dry and itchy without lotion, but I HATE the lotions that feel heavy and greasy after being applied. Whipped Silk left my skin perfectly soft and smooth all day, and it seriously absorbed lickety split with NO greasy feel. And it smelled great. It was literally perfection in a bottle.
I knew they were slowing production when Walmart stopped carrying it, but I could still find it at Giant Eagle and Target. The last time I was at Target, the Whipped Silks were on clearance, and my heart sank. THEY ONLY PUT STUFF ON CLEARANCE IF IT'S GOING AWAY FOREVER.
Whyyyyyyyyyy WOULD THEY DO THIS??? WHYYYYY????????
I'm still bitter, five years later, about them changing the formula of my favorite conditioner, Aussie Moist. It was never the same. I bought one bottle of the new stuff and then stopped using the brand.
Why do they have to "fix" stuff that's not broken?
I am so sad. Now I'm resigned to feeling greasy after putting on lotion for all eternity.
