I have been using this for about 2 years now and I have to say that I don't usually mess around with this one. I have skin that tries to get very itchy on me. Sometimes I will scratch the skin right off. This really helps keep the itchies at bay. The scent is okay, but the big payoff is the moisturizing and calming. A definitely must have!!!!
I love this cream. I use it on my body and on my face. It makes my skin so smooth and does not have a strong smell which is a big plus for my sensitive skin. I have excema on my face and this has really helped to lessen it (along with using Bare Escentuals) over the past few weeks. I put it on my face at night after my Neutrogena alpha-hydrox treatment and also during the day if I have an itchy excema flare-up. It must be because of the oatmeal in there or something. It also leaves my rough elbows, knees and feet very soft. I will definitely keep this in my beauty arsenal for as long as it is available.

I have dry/sensitive skin and this is the only moisturizer I have found that works for me. I have tried Oil of Olay, Jergens, and many others, but most of them have a fragrance which is irritating as well. I get dry patches of skin in the winter, that is until I started using this product. I think the emolliants in it really helps to protect my skin in the dry, cold, midwest winters. I don't dare try any other products since this one works great. Most other lotions sting on my face and cause it to became red and irritated. Aveeno does not.

I have been using this product for a while. This product is pretty good for the body, esp. hands and feet. It can really moisturize without being too greasy. But it won't really make my skin smoother other than moisturising. Also even it is convenient to have a pump, the pump won't work after you use a certain amount of lotion. And another down side is I cannot use it to moisturize my face. I tried it a few times- the first time seemed ok, but the next few times I used it on my face I felt that my face became so greasy. And the areas near my eyes was itchy (I didn't put any undereye, luckily).... So I wouldn't recommend it for face esp. if you have sensitive skin (btw, I don't even have sensitive skin. I just don't know why that happened).
Also if you are not buying this product at Costco or when it is on sale, it is quite pricy for a body lotion. So I believe that there would be something else better and cheaper. So I did find one (cocoa butter lotion!) .
The smell of this was a turn-off and the consistency simply felt weird. Worst of all, though, was the reaction--if I put it on my arms at night and my arms came close to my face, I woke up with a rosacea-inflamed red face. Nothing about this felt good.

Love this lotion. It's moisturizing without being oily and it absorbs quickly. Skin is soft and smooth and I love that the lotion is fragrance free. A bit pricey, as Aveeno tends to be but well worth the price.
This lotion really does keep my skin moisturized throughout the entire day, and it makes my skin feel very soft. However, when I apply it to my face, it feels very greasy and oily; it feels similar to how my skin reacts on very humid days. I wouldn't buy this again, which is unfortunate because I've never used a lotion that keeps my skin moisturized for such a long period of time.
I really realli like this product because ,1, there's not a lot of ingredients in the back, 2, one of the most pure and natural products in the market today, 3, deeply moisturizer and protect my skin.
I like to use this product for my face, I've tried many skin cream, from the expensive la mer to drugstore neutrogena, none of the work as well as my simple oatmeal Aveeno. I've frist started using this when i discover, by accident, it works best on the face. When i put it on, i can feel a barrier between my skin -aveeno-pollution/makeup, this give me a glow, no moisturizer have success in giving me. My face afterward does not feel as silky as la mer, but i find aveeno make a better base for makeup as i find my makeup really "grips" to the product. I like to use powder foundation, and this makes it go on smooth and evenly, gliding over my pores and does not settle in my dry patches :) For harsh winter night, i like to apply a thick layer, and sleep on it overnight, it acts as a great overnight moisturizer mask.
I hope you like this product as much as i do XD

This is the best moisturizing lotion for me. I have very dry sensitive skin and this product works great on me. I had tried many many expensive and inexpensive body lotions and by far this is amazing! I would highly recommend this product to everyone.
Yuuuuuck! I bought this stuff because my sister told me she likes it. She has eczema, so I figured if she likes it, then it would be OK for me too. This is not the case. It makes me sticky and gross- smelling (despite the FRAGRANCE-FREE label) and doesn't do nearly enough to keep my skin moisturized. I used it on my face a few times and it made my skin look absolutely incredible, but after a few times, it gave me gross, angry looking pimples.
I hope I can give this to my sister...yuck!!
