I think they recently repackaged these so they no longer say "Aloe Cool & Fresh"...but yes, they did used to. Anyway, this is my favorite go-to lotion. If I'm not looking for strong perfumed smelling lotion (which normally I would find in my B&BW lotions)...I grab this one. I have been using this lotion for a little over three years now and love it. It is light yet moisturizes well...it smell lovely..not overpowering. I have even used this on my face and didn't have any breakouts. I currently have the bottle that is 24.5 fl oz/725 ml.... HUGE and lasts a long time. I also have an oversized "travel size" squeeze tube of it that I keep in my diaper bag (as a mama, I don't carry a purse anymore). This is a lotion I will continue to purchase until it becomes discontinued.

love the cucumber/aloe/melon (i'm not sure) smell, and it is non-sticky, like what it says on the package, it dries very quickly and really moistures my skin. It's also very cheap. I bought the 600ml one for $6 CAD.

My HG body lotion (reviewing the one without SPF). It's light and moisturizing, perfect for the humid summer months in NY. I also love using this body lotion in the winter, even though I tend to use body butters or Nivea creme when my skin needs an extra oomph of moisture. This is my go to lotion when my skin is not in serious need for moisture, and I don't want to feel greasy/sticky from anything heavy. It does the job and for a long time sufferer of eczema, I have not have any flareups since I've been following a strict morning/night moisturizing regime for the past 3+ years that includes use of this body lotion (no more need for skin thinning steroid creams). The scent is also clean and fresh, a unisex scent that can be used by men & women. This lotion is light, non-sticky and moisturizing, all for less than $6 (for 31.8 fl. oz) that lasts me 6+ months even with daily use.

First of all, the name is wrong. It is actually "aloe fresh hydrating body lotion".. i have not seen anything on the label that says "aloe cool" maybe I just have a new bottle with a different label.. lol anyways.

I bought this because I needed a lotion desperately and the organic lotion from whole foods (365) was not working at all and the scent was overwhelming. I also wanted something without parabens in it.

I saw this, the smell was alright and it was fairly cheap, so I got it.

I am so pleasantly surprised! I wish I would have gotten the larger pump bottle for $5. The smell is there, but nice and light. I wear this before going to bed and hubby commented on how good I smelled.. Just fresh and clean. It reminded him of a previous gardenia scented lotion I had, and it does smell like that.

It is really a good basic lotion. I am not sure how well this would mix with a perfume though, so probably better off when worn alone.

Will def. repurchase

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION: Aloe Fresh lotion awakens the skin with a sheer, light burst of hydration and quick-penetrating conditioners, leaving it smooth and refreshed.
• soothing aloe & cucumber formula leaves skin feeling cool and refreshed.
• conditioning moisturizers provide an instant lightweight burst of hydration.
 
MY THOUGHTS: I purchased a 325 mL bottle of the Vaseline Aloe Fresh Hydrating Body Lotion with Aloe & Cucumber from Real Canadian Superstore for around $2 CAD. I haven't used it that much, but I like the cucumber/melon/dewberry fragrance associated with it. I find the moisturizer is absorbed almost immediately after spreading and leaves no thick, heavy residue behind. The cap is a little flimsy. I'm always worried I'm going to rip it right off every time I try to open the bottle. It's best to use this right after showers, before bed, and/or controlling winter dryness.
 
After performing an oil migration test, I discovered this product had a negative result.

I bought this one with the SPF 15 which is perfect for daily sun protection without the added greasiness and smell! This smells very fresh and inviting! I love this lotion. It is not an amazing lotion for dry skin but for normal skin. Will repurchase!

I bought a huge bottle of this because it was on sale for like $2. Wish I hadn't. At first I liked the smell but after using it for a week, the smell started to make me ill. It's a little too sicky sweet for me. Something that also made me ill is the list of ingredients. Sounds like you could build a bomb with this stuff. It really turned me off the brand all together. If it wasn't so huge I'd swap it away.

I love this lotion, especially for sunburnt skin. Stupid me got extremely burnt a couple months back, and I turned to this for calming my skin.

I had tried my other lotions, but this always give my skin its much needed hydration. It has a nice soft smell and doesn't leave a greasy film later.

The aloe vera just gives you a energising burst.

I'm using the Aloe Fresh Hydrating body lotion (as opposed to the spf15 Protecting version that many people are reviewing.) The reviews for both seem to be mixed together in here. Anyways, the product itself is great! It provides extremely light moisture that sinks in on impact. True to its claim, there wasn't a moment of stickiness, and within a few seconds, my legs were smooth as can be. But this really is LIGHT moisture, so if you've actually got dry skin, don't count too much on this. (After all, it's composed primarily of aloe, which simply seals moisture in.) Eucerin provides better hydration, but is just a tidbit stickier. Overall, great product for the summer, and I'll definitely buy again! (The scent's wonderful as well.)

SO GOOD. I bought this while in Ohio because I burnt SO bad. This lotion is amazing ...it calmed my itchy sunburn and even sped up the flaking phase. After the burn I have noticed it is an awesome summer moisturizer. And for 5 bucks you cannot beat the price, and you get SO much ... I will probably never run out, but would purchase again when I do!!!!!

I absolutely love this lotion!! I was hesitant to buy it at first because I have tons of lotions that I love but I like how it has SPF 15 and it got good reviews. So i bought it today at Wegmans for $4.99 for a huge bottle. I used it tonight after my bath and it absorbs immediately into the skin and it feels and smells awesome! I didn't even have to wash my hands afterwards; it's not greasy at all. My skin feels so silky and fresh!

I use the non-SPF 15 version of this lotion and I adore it. It's got a fantastic, fresh scent that makes you feel and smell even fresher and cleaner when applied after showering. The texture is great; thick enough that it's not runny or gooey, but not too thick and goopy. It's not sticky and it doesn't leave a weird feeling or layer of ick on the skin when applied. I love to wear it all over then top it with Bath & Body Work's cucumber body splash, and it makes you feel so good and clean. Your skin is softened and smells divine. Plus, I got a huge thing of it (24.5 fl. oz!) for five dollars at Walmart. I love the packaging, too- a super quick pump that allows you to just park the container on your nightstand or in your bathroom and use it quickly whenever you feel like it. Ultimately, leaves you smelling and feeling fantastic on the cheap.

Edit: If they EVER stop making this I will be so lost. I love it to peices. I stopped using it for a while, then just put some on and WOW. I forgot how great this is. It sinks in immeadeately, but it leaves my skin feeling perfectly comfortable. Not dry, stick, or oily. I love this stuff and am so glad to have it. I will try the gel version next!

I usually don't use lotions b/c I hate feeling "sticky" after putting it on...I was suckered in by this new campaign, however, and decided this would be good for the summer b/c it has SPF 15 in it. So far, I really like this lotion. It sinks in quickly, leaves my skin soft, and has a light smell that doesn't interfere w/ my perfume (it just smells "clean"). I like this A LOT.

Side note: This lotion also helps w/ bumps on the back of my arms.

Definitely is a must have for summer! Love the smell but not as much as the original. This one has more of a sunscreen/cucumber smell. But still love it none the less!

Love this! I use it every day. It smells light, clean and fresh. I love how it has SPF 15, isn't greasy and really does moisturize. My skin hasn't felt this silky in a long time! Definitely worth it...I bought the last one on the shelf:)

I loved this lotion. The scent was light and it definately does its job moisturizing my dry skin. I even apply this on my face right before I put on makeup.
