Aveeno Active Naturals Daily Moisturizing Lotion
Aveeno skin care products have a solid reputation - and for good reason. This moisturizing cream is currently my personal favorite.
- Unique oatmeal formula helps protect dry skin and provide temporary relief of the scaling and chapping
- Contains dermatologist-recommended, natural colloidal oatmeal
- Blended with rich emollients to moisturize your skin for a full 24 hours
- Naturally nourishing, nongreasy formula absorbs quickly and is noncomedogenic
- Fragrance free
This Aveeno moisturizer absorbs nearly instantly. It has a good consistency, is not greasy, and it really does last all day. There is no scent to it at all, which we prefer. One of the best parts about this moisturizer is that, despite its effectiveness, its ingredient list is so simple and highly safe.
We love this moisturizer due to how well it works and how safe it is. As far as ingredients go, it is among the simplest and safest on the market. We highly recommend this moisturizer - you can't go wrong with it.
Nivea Soft Refreshingly Soft Moisturizing Creme with Jojoba Oil and Vitamin E
We love Nivea skin care products and this moisturizing cream is no excecption. It is one of my personal favorites.
- Enriched with jojoba oil and Vitamin E
- Leaves skin incredibly soft
- Fast absorbing and non-greasy
This Nivea soft creme is wonderful. It absorbs nearly instantly and is not greasy. It hydrates your skin and lasts all day. Also, people with sensitive skin should have no problem with this product. There is a faint scent to it, but it is pleasant enough.
Nivea is a reliable brand. Their moisturizers are excellent and do what they should. Note that this product does contain fragrance and parabens - though most consider these safe, some people may wish to search for alternatives.
Kiss My Face Olive & Aloe Moisturizer for Sensitive Skin
We recently had the opportunity to try this moisturizer from Kiss My Face.
- Olive oil, aloe vera, natural herbs & flowers
- Created without animal ingredients, artificial colors, or unnecessary chemicals
Kiss My Face Olive & Aloe Moisturizer takes a while to absorb into the skin and is a bit greasy. Once it is absorbed, it does an OK job of keeping your skin hydrated, but not the best we have seen. It has a faint scent that we found to be pleasant enough. It suitable for people with sensitive skin (as the name implies).
This Olive & Aloe Moisturizer contains some ingredients you may wish to avoid, such as sodium borate (borax). Overall, it is OK, but there are many better options on the market.
Dove Cream Oil Body Lotion
Most have heard of Dove products. How well does their Cream Oil Body Lotion work?
- Advanced formula for extra dry skin
- Ultimate moisture to dramatically improve skin tone and texture
Dove products have always been good to us. This moisturizer works well even on skin when it is extremely dry. It does not leave your skin greasy, and absorbs very quickly. It will keep your skin soft all day. The only problem we had with this product was the scent. It smells pleasant but is a little stronger than we would have liked. Others may not mind the strong scent as much as we did.
Overall, Dove Cream Oil Body Lotion is a straightforward moisturizer that does its job well. Note that this product does contain fragrance and parabens - though most consider these safe, some people may wish to search for alternatives.
Eucerin Dry Skin Therapy Calming Creme
Eucerin is a well-known brand in the world of skin care. Is their Dry Skin Therapy Calming Creme a good buy?
- Rich, non-greasy moisturizer for daily use
- Fragrance free
- Appropriate for children and sensitive skin
- Fast absorbing and non-comedogenic
Eucerin is a reliable brand in our experience. This moisturizer works well and as advertised. It is a little thicker than what we are used to, but still easy enough to apply. It hydrates your skin without being greasy, and absorbs quickly enough. Furthermore, it has a few features that set it apart from other products. First, it has no scent. Some people like scented creams and lotions, but for those who don't, we recommend giving this a try. Second, it is suitable for even the most sensitive skin. Lastly, it contains hydrocortisone, so it is especially effective at reducing swelling, itching, and redness.
Eucerin Dry Skin Therapy Calming Creme is pretty safe as far as ingredients go - there aren't any fancy ones. But that doesn't mean it isn't an excellent moisturizer.
Neutrogena Body Lotion, Light Sesame Formula
Neutrogena is a large American brand of skin care, hair care, and cosmetic products. How does this moisturizer stack up against the competition?
- Enriched with moisturizing sesame oil
- Absorbs instantly and does not clog pores
- Light fragrance
- Made in the U.S.A.
When trying this moisturizer, we had high expectations. Neutrogena products are generally very good quality and this one is no exception. We feel that this product is close to perfect as far as moisturizers go - definitely one of the best we have tried. It is absorbed nearly instantly, as advertised, so you can apply it even when in a hurry. It provides the right amount of hydration without being greasy, and works all day long. As for the scent, it can be described as a clean and fresh smell. However, it is rather mild which is nice.
During our testing, we also found it to be suitable for all skin types - so no need to worry, even if you have sensitive skin. Note that this product does contain fragrance and parabens - though most consider these safe, some people may wish to search for alternatives.
