I don't review much, and I had to rave about this. My new acne medication (topical) makes my skin quite sensitive, and one morning I went to the playground with my niece not realizing I had forgotten to put sunscreen on top of the acne medication. The sun and the medication did not get along and I ended up with a HORRIBLE burn/rash on my neck, larger than my palm and just straight down. Everything I put on it (i tried at least 10 different products) just made it sting and after three days it wasn't going anywhere; it was just more red from the products. I was on the verge of going to a doctor (not only did it look TERRIBLE, but it was hurting badly) when my mom suggested this aveeno lotion which she had used for my brother when he had chicken pox. This stuff is magical. I applied it liberally over two days and it didn't sting at all upon application. Forty eight hours later, the rash is barely visible and doesn't hurt at all. I also put some on my upper arms where I've always had some redness, and that is gone as well--something I thought I'd have forever. This stuff is amazing and I will never be without it again! I love the texture, the smell is barely noticeable.
the best lotion ever! makes your skin wonderful after tanning and i love that you can close and lock the pump- so no messes while traveling. holy grail for summertime!
i love this moisturizing lotion it hydrets my body so much if my face fells dry i'll use a little bity on and it makes it so soft .
I started using this product over a year ago, and I was very skeptical about it because I thought that it would make my face very greasy since I do have combination skin. However, it has never let me down and it always keeps my skin moisturized without making my face too oily.
I used this as a facial moisturizer and it was so sticky and it made me break out. It made my face really greasy too.
UPDATE: Has cancerous ingredient benzyl something or other, so stopped using this.
Really like this stuff. No fragrance, no parabens, VERY short list of ingredients, and the best part - water is the LAST ingredient listed, which accounts for how emollient it is. I use it on my face after coconut oil. My skin is very dry and breaks out with a variety of ingredients. The coconut oil controls breakouts and this stuff doesn't cause any. The coconut oil doesn't last that long moisture-wise, but this stuff lasts and lasts.
I love this lotion. It absorbs quickly and has no annoying smell. Sometimes it can smell kind of plasticky though. I also like the slightly cooling effect when applied. It's very moisturizing and soothing. I've never used it on my face though, I think it's too thick for my oily skin. It's a good moisturizer to rely on, better than those from Bath and Body Works, Jergens or Vaseline Intensive Care.
I've been using this on my legs and arms where I get eczema. I've not had any flareups lately (partly due to diet changes). I use it after showering and it dries quickly, allowing me to put my clothes on straight away. It only comes in 200ml tubes in the UK, which is annoying, and it is relatively expensive compared to other UK drugstore body lotions (I think it was about £5.50ish). It is also not always easy to find, although bigger branches of Boots stock it in the sensitive skin section with E45 etc.

I love this! I'm a redhead with somewhat sensitive skin. It doesn't irritate me at all. This is the only lotion that keeps dry patches on my face hydrated. When I switched to an actual facial moisturizer (not Aveeno brand), I hated it. I immediately switched back to Aveeno to get rid of the dry, scaly areas. Good stuff!
