All those doing the dishes and washing the clothes has made
my hands really dry. If only I could shift into a hotel, I would never move
out. Ever. My elbows are also rough from that habit of resting my elbows on the
table. My face is very oily, there are days when I feel the oil will start
dripping in sometime. Luckily, it has not happened, yet. I own non-oily stuff
mostly so, have been looking for some lotion or crème which would solve my
problem. I tried Nivea Soft Cream. It worked well but I was looking for
something which would last me all day. Hence, I bought this lotion from Violetbag.com .
What it claims:
Made with a blend of C, E and B5, this fast-absorbing body
lotion goes deep beneath skin's surface to lock in moisture and heal dryness at
the source, preventing its unwelcome return.
- Penetrates through 5 layers of skin's surface to start healing at the source
- Helps heal extra dry skin—including heels, elbows and knees
- Triples skin's moisture content with continued use
- Provides 24-hour relief
Use Jergens® Ultra Healing® Extra Dry
Skin Moisturizer with Jergens® Overnight Repair Nightly Restoring
Moisturizer for 3x smoother, softer skin.
What it did:
It’s meant for dry skin so it is on the heavier side. I
don’t have dry skin so I only used it on my hands. The claim of lasting 24 hour
must be true because my hands were moisturized even after I washed my hands.
Now, it is not fast-absorbing for me, I have to work it into the skin. My hands
start looking like they belong to somebody civilized (Almost!) after using
this.
To sum it up, I love the effect it has on my dry hands. I
think you’ll love it if you have dry or very dry skin. This is one of the
things that will see you though the winter without that itchy and dry skin. If
you don’t need something heavy, you can also try the Jergens Original Scent Dry
Skin moisturizer.
