Vanicream Moisturizing Skin Cream, 16 Ounces

Between my husband and I, we have seen four different dermatologists all of them recommending this product. Because it is incredibly thick, it really moisturizes the skin and lasts long throughout the day. I dont like all the parabens and fragrances in commercial lotions so I like this because I can add organic essential oils and make my own natural scents. If it is too thick when you purchase it, you can take it and add carrier oils to it to thin it out like jobajoba, vitamin E, etc along with essential oils. I highly recommend this product.

I thought I had previously reviewed the products thanking the maker for saving my life. My face suddenly became allergic to everything 2 years ago. I had all kinds of testing and trials, I paid huge sums of money for fancy products at the mall with promises that now I would be happy. Thank heavens a good dermatologist, thank you Sarah, suggested Vani products to me and my whole life has changed. I can actually put on some eye makeup now! And if you are old like me, you want to add a little frill every once in a while. The cream is a bit heavy for my kids (twenty somethings) but if you massage it in a bit, it is gone and you dont feel it. These pots will last and last and the price is amazing. Do we want the manufacturer to know this or is s/he already making millions off of us?

This product works well for moisturizing my sensitive skin

I break out from almost all lotions, even Aveeno and Eucerin, but this works great for face and body, with no breakouts. It is not greasy, and absorbs within a few minutes. Its my new go to lotion.

I was given samples of this brand from an allergy specialist and it is really the only option I found for truly unscented, paraben free, hypoallergenic hygiene products. If what you need is unscented, hypoallergenic soap/shampoo/conditioner due to sensitive skin or an allergy, this is it. Its hard to come by and its nothing glamorous but it fits the bill when youre trying to avoid potential allergens. It can be purchased in some stores but it is not easy to find and it is more expensive. This is a thick, creamy lotion but it definitely works. Its more expensive than many lotions you find at the store but if you have very sensitive skin, its great.

This cream was recommended by a friend who worked 20 years for a dermatology group. It is what the group has suggested to clients for years. It moisturizes dry itchy skin. It even softens the calluses on my feet. It’s advertised as having no scent and that’s true, no scent whatsoever. It absorbs well in a very short time. I highly recommend this product.

This stuff is the best for babies with eczema!

I decided to try out this cream because an allergist recommended it for sensitive skin and eczema. It is very moisturizing, although a little thick so theres still a sheen of oil after applying. I had no adverse reactions to using the cream, but when I applied it on the beginnings of a rash, it made my skin a bit itchy. Pros: Effective moisturizer Fragrance free, no smell Good value for the price Good for sensitive skin Cons: Doesnt fully absorb, leaves oily residue on skin If you apply it on a rash, this may make the rash itchier I have found a better moisturizing cream (Infinite Aloe), but its very expensive, so this one is a good alternative.

I read the review about eczema and felt compelled to write. Many struggle to find a cure for this condition and we were blessed to break the eczema cycle on our daughter who itched constantly. We still use Vanicream today to help moisturize her skin. It had been 9 years and I do not remember all of the details, but here is what I can tell you. We learned from a local school counselor whose son had eczema bad. She visited the National Jewish Hospital in Colorado who specializes in auto immune diseases. Here is a general treatment summary. Soak in the bathtub (or hands if that is only area affected) in as hot as water as tolerable for exactly 20 minutes. Do not dry off, and on the hot spots, we dabbed a 1% steroid ointment---might have been elecon, but I cant remember. Do not rub in. On the rest of the skin, we smothered in Vanicream. We then dressed her in wet pajamas soaked in warm water (ringed out) and put two layers of dried sweats on her to keep her warm. She kept the clothes on for two hours minimum and when we took off, layered again in vanicream and rubbed it in this time and put on regular clothes. Do this three or four times a day (yes, it takes a commitment) At nighttime, we tried to have her sleep in the wet clothes as long as possible. We did this for 5 days and IT BROKE HER ECZEMA CYCLE. It is the only treatment I have ever heard of that worked. Steriods were getting too much, nothing seemed to work and we went to Cleveland Clinic, and at least 10 other doctors and all we heard was Steriods is the answer and It is a tough disease that she will have to live with TOday she is 15 and just has dry skin at times. I still buy vanicream and I would recommend anyone who is struggling with eczema to try the above.....cant hurt and could change your life. It changed hers and ours [email protected]

Ive used dozens of moisturizers and this one is the best! My dermatologist recommended this brand to me several months ago as being very pure and it surely is. Ive been using it ever since on my face and body. It is fragrance free. The skin on my face and body is smooth, free of pimply-like or scratchy marks which I often had with other moisturizers--even fragrant-free ones.
