Vanicream Moisturizing Skin Cream, 16 Ounces

I have washed my face with vanicream for 36 years, gets the dirt off without drying my skin and doesn’t aggravate my chronic hives. I also apply after every shower with no stickiness, wonderful product.

Improved the softness of my skin in just two applications. Wonderful product that literally stopped the itch of my dry skin.

Bought this on a recommendation from another mother whose child has eczema and the weird all over tiny skin bumps that sometimes go with it. The ones that the dermatologist just tells you to moisturize/keep clean, but is too widespread for a prescription cream/ointment to be effective/and not sell a kidney expensive to maintain for long periods of time. By day two of applying the bumps were disappearing. Really pleased with results. It is about the consistency of a thick sunscreen, but absorbs into the skin for a soft layer not a greasy one.

my dermatologist and i recommend this product

I break out from almost all lotions, even Aveeno and Eucerin, but this works great for face and body, with no breakouts. It is not greasy, and absorbs within a few minutes. Its my new go to lotion.

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.

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.

I thought I had previously reviewed the products thanking the maker for saving my life. My face suddenly became allergic to everything 2 years ago. I had all kinds of testing and trials, I paid huge sums of money for fancy products at the mall with promises that now I would be happy. Thank heavens a good dermatologist, thank you Sarah, suggested Vani products to me and my whole life has changed. I can actually put on some eye makeup now! And if you are old like me, you want to add a little frill every once in a while. The cream is a bit heavy for my kids (twenty somethings) but if you massage it in a bit, it is gone and you dont feel it. These pots will last and last and the price is amazing. Do we want the manufacturer to know this or is s/he already making millions off of us?

I work at a hospital in Denver specializing in treating allergies and skin conditions. They sell this in the gift shop and its wonderful. I have eczema and very dry sensitive skin (not helped by living at altitude in an arid climate). The dermatologists here recommend the soak and seal method of skin care. Soak in a bath (not hot) or shower for 10-15 minutes. Pat skin with towel but do not dry completely. Then apply a thick, unscented cream like Vanicream to seal in moisture. Research shows that a genetic flaw seems to be responsible for skin that doesnt hold enough moisture, which can lead to skin problems. This method works great!
