Molton Brown Re-Charge Black Pepper Body Lotion 10 fl. oz. — Lightweight, Fast-Absorbing Vegan Hydration

Molton Brown Re-Charge Black Pepper Body Lotion is a lightweight, vegan body moisturiser scented with a warm spice-led fragrance of black pepper, coriander and vetiver.

This 10 fl. oz. lotion blends rapid-absorbing hydration with a bold, woody-citrus fragrance designed to leave skin feeling nourished and smelling distinctive without heaviness. Formulated in England, the recipe contains no animal-derived ingredients and is cruelty free; the bottle is made using 50% recycled plastic (pump excluded). The texture is fresh and easily spreadable, intended for everyday use to maintain softness while layering the iconic Re-Charge Black Pepper scent.

How does this lotion hydrate without feeling greasy?

The formula balances emollients and light humectants so the lotion absorbs quickly, delivering moisture without a sticky residue. It’s designed to leave skin comfortable and touchable while carrying the fragrance throughout the day.

• Light, non-oily texture for fast absorption
• Hydration suitable for daily use on body skin
• Leaves a subtle scented veil rather than heavy coating

What does the Re-Charge Black Pepper scent smell like?

The fragrance opens with a piquant hit of black pepper that softens into spicy coriander and settles on an earthy, green vetiver base. The overall profile is confident and lively — woody-citrus with a spicy backbone — created by Master Perfumer Jacques Chabert.

• Top notes: vibrant black pepper for an energetic opening
• Heart notes: warm coriander lending aromatic spice
• Base notes: grounded vetiver and oakmoss for depth

Is this product ethically made and what are the packaging details?

The body lotion is produced in England and formulated without ingredients of animal origin; Molton Brown does not test on animals. The bottle uses recycled plastic components to reduce waste, and the brand highlights responsible manufacturing practices across its collections.

• 100% vegan formula — no animal-derived ingredients
• Cruelty-free formulation and production
• Recyclable bottle made with 50% recycled plastic (pump excluded)

How should I use this lotion to get the best scent and hydration?

Apply after showering while skin is still slightly damp to lock in moisture and help the fragrance adhere. Use sparingly on dry areas as needed or throughout the body for a lasting aromatic layer; reapply after bathing or whenever you want a refresh.

• Massage into clean, slightly damp skin for optimal absorption
• Concentrate on elbows, knees and dry patches
• Layer with Re-Charge Black Pepper shower gel or cologne for intensified scent longevity

Who is this for? This Molton Brown body lotion suits anyone seeking a lightweight moisturiser with a distinctive, spicy-woody scent — ideal for people who prefer energising fragrances and fast-absorbing textures. It’s appropriate for daily use by those who value cruelty-free, vegan formulations and environmentally mindful packaging, and for anyone wanting to layer fragrance across bath and body routines without a heavy finish.
