Vanicream Moisturizing Skin Cream, 16 Ounces

The fact that it comes in a tub is a plus because it is easier to use and eliminates waste. It is very helpful with my newly developed eczema. The only issue is that when you are covering your entire body you can go through a tub in a hurry, and it becomes very expensive. This one criticism is of course true of all such products. Recommended! B.K.

I will say that this product moisturized my face very well. Its a bit sticky but personally I did not mind it at all. What really made me dislike this product was the atrocious smell. The moisturizer I got smelled like rotten milk. I had gotten to a point where putting this on my face would make me gag. Perhaps this is a defect product.. and I hope it is because I think its a good moisturizer aside from the terrible smell. However, this is my second purchase of Vanicream moisturizers and both of them had that same nasty smell, so my track record with Vanicream moisturizers isnt great at all.

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.

I have been using Vanicream for a few years now. Prior to, I had used at least 100 different products because none worked super great for me. Once I got my first jar of Vanicream, I stopped looking elsewhere as this stuff is fantastic. Vanicream makes two general-use skin moisturizer: this (the standard cream) and the Lite Lotion, which is a thinner weight moisturizer. If you have skin problems like me, this product (the cream) is what you want. This is a thicker weight cream that applies easily, does not clog pores, and works for a very long time. Being thicker, it takes a little while to work it in, but you ultimately save time given most other products will require significantly more reapplications than the Vanicream cream. It works well on the face because its formulation is made not to clog pores and not flare acne, facial blemishes, minor injuries, etc. This cream was made primarily for people with skin issues (for normal skin, the Lite Lotion is probably a better match). Given skin issues often go along with allergies, this product is formulated so that it does not contain the ingredients that can inflame both skin and allergies (ex: scents). It also does not both asthma. Overall, Vanicream Cream is a product that has a lot of value when most standard moisturizers do not work. Its a strong moisturizer capable of helping your skin when most other products have failed to yield much or any improvement. The jar design they use is also very convenient. So if you have certain skin issues, chances are you will benefit from Vanicream more so than you will from other products.

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.

I dont remember how many tubs Ive used up. Ive always wanted to try some fancy face and body lotions but in the end I just had to come back to this. I live in a humid weather and I have combination oily skin yet I still use it even in the summertime (just less amount). Recently my aunt had some unknown skin issue (most likely due to coldness and dryness) I let her try Vanicream and few days later, no more issue for her.

It’s fine. A bit stickier as you apply compared to cerave, but it goes away as cream absorbs into the skin. I usually buy Cerave but wanted to try vanicream since everybody recommends it as a cheaper alternative. Well, it wasn’t cheaper really. And as I understand doesn’t have ceramides and other good stuff that Cerave has. It smells a bit off to me too. If it was $9 instead of $13 I would say it’s a good alternative. But a buck or two (or in case of a coupon -$0 ) dollars difference doesn’t make it a worthy contestant. CeraVe is nicer in terms of texture, almost no smell compared to Vanicream moisturizer, and has ceramides.

This is the only lotion I will use. It’s not full of toxic foreign chemicals and it’s the only lotion that combats my dry cracking painful eczema hands in the winter. I’ve even done the Vaseline with cotton gloves on at night & that doesn’t work, only this lotion works. I use this lotion on my face as well. It’ll get rid of a dry spot in 1-2 days. This product from this seller comes sealed. When you remove the screw off plastic blue lid there is a safety seal in tact, so I believe this seller is selling authentic products. I actually contacted Vanicream to confirm the design of the safety seal was authentic but they never got back to me. :(

All the Vanicream products are fantastic. And Ive tried Every.Single.Skin.Product there is - natural, organic to items like CeraVe and (of course) Cetaphil. Nothing has been as effective and as great for my skin as Vanicream. I now tell all my siblings about it in Canada. HIGHLY recommend.

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.
