Vanicream Moisturizing Skin Cream, 16 Ounces

I need this every day of my life like I need my chapstick! I have used many other dermatologist recommended creams/lotions, but none of them satisfied my eczema like Vanicream does. Ever since Ive been introduced to this, I have not used any other lotion.

This is the best moisturizing cream for people with sensitive skin and allergies. The cream is very thick and great for crack heals and dry skin. I even recommended it to a client when she told about her skin cracking and a week later she called just to tell me thank you for the recommendations. This cream is thick and not like the lite lotion.

Ive tried everything, EVERYthing out there for eczema for the past 20 years. And Vanicream definitely takes the cake. Its thick and soothing to dry eczema-prone skin without burning, itching, or clogging pores. My dermatologist actually prescribed it (its stocked at some military pharmacies) but I couldnt find it in any local stores. Thank goodness for Amazon. The closest product I found is cetaphil, but Vanicream is much less greasy, absorbs quickly and (when applied lightly) really is non-comedogenic (doesnt clog pores) for those of us with combination skin. The pump is probably a good idea, when the lid isnt sealed tight it gets a little goopy and Then it can clog pores. Also, for those who have said its a bit too thick, try applying it right after showering - it locks in moisture and a the water helps thin it out. Its not a cure-all; I still use it in combination with derma-smoothe and triamcinolone for eczema trouble, but it definitely helps prevent eczema by keeping skin moisturized. For extra dry skin in the winter I recommend supplementing vanicream with pure grapeseed oil - seriously, it sounds strange but even the kitchen variety works well.

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?

My sons pediatrician recommend this for my baby at just a couple months old who had eczema. Its very gentle and moisturizing and soaks in well as it dries. It has no scent at all, not even that unscented scent of old lady smell. Vanicream has a face moisturizer too but I have been using this on my face since I too have a little exzema. Of its gentle enough to put on my 2 month old, why not my face? It doesnt even cause acne for me and I usually have pretty picky skin on my face. Love this. We keep it in stock at our house.

Love all of the Vanicream products. This lotion is heavier but absorbs quickly and does an amazing job of moisturizing, especially those dry heels. It also works great to mix with magnesium oil for extra magnesium without the gut side effects.

Just works well

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.

Recently I’ve noticed my mom showing up in the mirror- specifically her rosacea. I have very dry skin, don’t wear make up and have never taken great care of my skin, and at 48, it’s starting to show. I feel like in five days since I’ve started using this along with a thin layer of benzoyl peroxide that the rosacea has improved significantly. I slather it on currently and it feels sticky after a while, but hey, we’re not supposed to be touching our faces, right?

My mom suffered from some curious blood condition that compromised her immune system. We didnt know what it was, we just knew it didnt make her feel good and made everything an ordeal for her. One of her conditions was her skin was suffering and it was basically dehydrating, getting itchy and cracking. Needless to say, we did much research and came upon Vanicream. I initially thought it was one of those vaporous products they sell to women, but I was proven wrong. Vanicream ended up making my moms condition much more bearable. Vanicream returned her skin to normal, though I myself dont know what she was suffering from...one of those things you have to deal with living have the country away and working 40+ hours a week. But my mom is fine now, and I thank the makers of Vanicream for making a great product that worked for her.
