Nivea Extended Moisture Body Lotion

Works but kinda greasy & perfumey

Sorry but Neutrogena is still so much better! I got a small tube of this to keep at my office but missing my Neutrogena already. My hands feel nice enough but now they're shiny, perfumed & slightly greasy...yuck!

Clinique All About Eyes Rich

Very soothing around eyes

I'd give this a higher rating, but I've never noticed any reduction in my dark circles or puffiness

Burt's Bees Nourishing Lip Balm with Mango Butter

This is pretty good stuff

Some days I like to switch off from my Vaseline Creme Brûlée and this is a good one to have around! It's not gummy or pasty like so many stick balms

Palmers Cocoa Butter Formula Moisturizing Lip Balm with SPF 15

This doesn't help my lips at all!

It's pretty greasy and even when I've put it on overnight it does not heal nor help my lips at all!

EOS Smooth Sphere Lip Balm

Well it's nice but not sturdy when it counts

I've been using EOS off n on for a couple year & I'll admit I've not ever broken out with this like some have. But The minute the weather gets too cold or my menopausal hormones turn my lips to dust it quits working. My lips will literally chap when I'm wearing it!

Tree Hut Shea Body Butter

Wow!!! The Mango Is fantastic!!

The scent is an island getaway! The body butter works really well & absorbs quickly. It is thick so it stays with your skin all day. You smell fantastic all day (I actually love to sniff my arm) so no perfumes necessary! I was suprised to find it at Walgreens for under &10!

Philosophy Hope in a Jar

Love this for my morning moisturizer

This has the best feel as it goes on! It's so light & cool. The smell is also light but energizing. It's not heavy enough for winter days when my skin is super dry or chapped, but I turn to the "Night" formula for that; much thicker. But for daily use, under makeup... This does the job supremely.

Vaseline Lip Therapy Cocoa Butter

40 years and still works the best

My lips have been a mess! It's winter and I'm nearly 50 my lips are not taking it well. My mom gave me Vaseline for chapped lips when I was a kid and over the years I still I've used many other products from Sephora, Burts, Fresh, EOS, Aveda, & Palmers... You name it. But I've come back to Vaseline again & again. After a miserable winter start this year, I'm sticking with Vaseline from now on. It's the only one that healed my lips up and have kept them smooth.

Neutrogena Hand Cream

Drugstore beats the high-priced

This winter has been harsh! I'm nearly 50 and my skin has just been getting drier & drier. I've been fanatical about finding good lotions for my hands, face, lips & body. So between BirchBox, Sephora, Ipsy & Aveda I have been driving myself crazy trying EVERYTHING! As far as hand lotions go I can tell you unequivocally Neutrogena Norwegian Formula hand cream WORKS! A little goes a long way It softens my hand without greasy residue . It lightens my hands so they're actually looking younger...big shock there! And it costs me less than $5!
