Vanicream Moisturizing Skin Cream, 16 Ounces

The product name obviously had a lot of thought put into it. The creators basically took two unrelated things, and made them into one. Vani, coming from Vanil Noir is a mountain of the Fribourg Prealps, located on the border between the cantons of Fribourg and Vaud in western Switzerland. With a height of 2,389 metres above sea level, the Vanil Noir is the highest summit of the canton of Fribourg and of the range lying north of the Saanenmöser Pass... and cream! as soon as this cream touched my babys face, I could almost smell the Shire!

My dermatologist recommended! There is little scent which I love. The cream is soft and easy to apply.

Helping cure my dry cracked hands from wearing gloves all day at work. Also perfect for tattoos!

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]

Don’t use anything but Vanicream products on your skin and it will improve. Amazing what happens to your skin when you take away the heavily tainted products.

I bought this thinking the word moisturizing means the cream acts like some of the other lotions I have: goes on and you keep rubbing your hands together until you dont feel the lotion anymore. Thats not the case. My hands feel greasy afterwards. Im afraid if I touch anything that Ill just leave oily stains everywhere. It does not have a scent though, which is nice. I just wish they made it clear in the description that it leaves your hands feeling greasy. Now Im out $15 for a tub that I use a little of each day. What you really want if you dont want your hands greasy after use is the Lite Lotion variant of this product.

Apparently I am allergic to the preservatives used in most lotions and creams. Dermatologist and Alergist recommended this cream. Problem solved!

I bought this product recently after reading the reviews here at Amazon.com, and have only been using it for two days. Ive tried so many different moisturizers over the years, and some very pricey. I can honestly say, Vanicream is one of the best moisturizers Ive purchased! I dont think Ive ever been this enthused over a moisturizing cream. It is a bit thick when first applied, and just takes a little while to absorb into the skin, but once it does, I think you will be very impressed. Two days ago, my elbows were rough and peeling, and in less than 48 hours, the peeling has disappeared and Im left with nothing but soft and healthy skin. My chapped hands are no longer chapped, and they feel and look great. What else can I say? I will definitely continue buying this product. It came in a nice large jar (1 lb) and was quite a bargain here on Amazon. I was also happy to learn that it is free of harmful chemicals and dyes. That is very important...especially if you have sensitive skin. Im very pleased with this product, and I highly recommend it.

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.

My baby dermo recommend this product and its very good keep baby skin soft and moist.
