    Great lotion for dry skin

    I was recently recommended this lotion from a coworker for use on dry chapped skin so I bought and it works wonders. I’ve even used it on my daughters Very bad eczema and it has improved it so much in just a few weeks. I will definitely buy again when it runs out.

    Best creme EVER

    Being someone who take a lot of hot baths, i soon realized that it was affecting my skin. I had a friend recommend the product and I have not looked back.

    The smell can be very unpleasant but THIS STUFF WORKS MAGIC. I sometimes add a few drops of essential oils to it in order to mask the smell.

    I always have a bottle of this stuff in my beach bag or on vacation. Its a great product for when you get that occasional sunburn.

    Thick and non greasy moisturizer but smells bad

    I purchased this when I found it on sale. I remember using it on my children and being very happy with it. It does a good job at moisturizing, however, it does have an unpleasant smell despite being fragrance free. It's not a perfumey smell, more like a plasticky smell. I wonder if the smell is coming from the plastic tube that it comes in?? I have transferred the lotion to a jar and hoping that the smell will go away. May add an essential oil to it.

    I would buy this product again and again.

    During my pregnancy I came down with some really dry patches of skin. They were located behind my knees and in the crease of my arm. It made it very hard to work. I was told about this product and i figured I'd give it a try. That was about 4 months ago and I've never used any other lotion. I will forever recommend this product to everyone I meet.

    Smells awful

    I bought this because my doctor recommended it for people with lanolin allergies and/or sensative skin. I thought it would be great because its scent free... but its more accurate to call it perfume free. This lotion STINKS. I cant stand it. Not to mention its really greasy and doesnt absorb well.

    Smells awful but works!

    My baby has ezcema and very dry skin and my doctor recommended this lotion for my baby. Went to the stores to buy it and was surprised that it was very pricy as compared to other baby lotions. Gave it a try anyways and applied it onto baby (smells awful, but I was told by my doctor that anything that smells good is bad for ezecma). Baby’s skin appears more better the next day and I can see the difference! Will keep using this as a daily lotion for my baby.

    Helped my sons eczema.

    My son had moderate eczema when he was a baby and the dermatologist reccomended Glaxal Base for his skin. We used to get a large tub and it would last a while. We would apply cortate cream sparingly to bad patches on his face and slather him in cortate. I found it had a strange sterile smell and that it didn't absorb well. It almost seemed to sit on his skin like a barrier to keep the moisture in. However that along with cortate cream and Aveeno anti-itch lotion, Aveeno bar soap, and the occassional Aveeno colloidal oatmeal bath worked wonders on his skin. I'm unsure if the formula has changed since then because that was almost eighteen years ago.

    Great non-scented lotion!

    I originally bought this when I had a horrible rash on my hands and feet for relief and it worked amazing for that. It is non-scented so it doesn't irritate sensitive skin. In the winter I use it frequently to combat dry skin. After shaving especially!

    Awesome for eczema

    My doctor recommended it when my oldest had eczema as a Baby. Now it's our go to when someone's eczema starts acting up. I've had to use it on my face for eczema on my eyelids (which hurts) and because it's not greasy I don't really notice it after Application. It has a medicinal smell so I don't use it all the time. But I always have some on hand.

    great for sensitive skin

    My mom started using this product when I was a teenager and got me hooked. It's very thick and extremely moisturizing but not greasy. The only downside is that it has a funny medicinal smell to it.
