Daily Moisturising Lotion Reviews

I bought the one litre size aveeno daily moisturizing lotion about three months ago and I still have it. I use it daily after I shower. As all aveeno products, it is great and very moisturizing and hydrating. It applies nicely on the skin and absorbs nicely and does not streak or feel slimy. It makes my skin feel baby smooth and is gentle and has never irritated my skin.

I've been using this moisturiser for years (I use it on my legs, feet, arms and hands every night before going to bed) and it has definitely helped my dry/sensitive skin. I love that it is a lightweight formula, is easy to apply (thanks to it having a pump), is non-sticky and not scented. It would recommend it for people who have sensitive skin and/or don't like scented products.

After being impressed with the lavender-scented Aveeno Stress-Relief Lotion I won in a BH competition, I bought this Daily fragrance-free version once I ran out of the former. I was expecting this to be superior on account of it being fragrance-free and no-frills, but as it turns out, I much prefer the purple-capped Stress-Free lotion.

This lotion has a gorgeous consistency - it's thick and not runny, but spreads like a dream. As a result, I don't need too much to cover my entire body with the lotion. It feels substantial coming out of the bottle, but feels really lightweight on the skin. And while there is no mistaking that my feel feels moisturised, I think this would perform better in the summer or anytime that's not winter. In this regard, it definitely falls short of my expectations.

The other area where this has been disappointing is that I don't find this soothing. I have an itchy spot on my leg that's been bothering me for a long time, and during the period I used the Stress-Relief lotion, I completely forgot about that spot as it didn't itch at all. Now, though, I'm back to constantly feeling the itch. So certainly, the Stress-Free lotion didn't heal whatever that irritation is, but it soothed it enough so I didn't feel it, whereas this lotion hasn't had a palliative effect at all. (Yes, the onus is on me to get it checked out, and maybe it's unfair to expect an over-the-counter lotion to deal with my skin issues, but the Stress-Free lotion helped a lot, and Aveeno is often recommended for people with skin sensitivities. In my case, this particular lotion has not helped.)

Being fragrance-free, the transition from lovely lavender to this bland, oatmeal smell was a bit shocking in the beginning, but now that I'm used to it, I don't mind it at all. The smell doesn't interfere with my body scent or linger, so it's good, particularly knowing that the lack of fragrance is better for my skin.

While I do like this, I wouldn't repurchase as I find the Stress-Free version a much superior lotion that actually helps calm down my skin irritations.

This is an absolutely amazing lotions for body skin!! It keeps my skin moisturized and hydrated. My favorite part of it though that it actually soothes and calms my skin. I have used it post shaving and it absolutely is amazing at keep my skin soothed and calm. It absorbs easily and keeps my skin supple throughout the day. I switch my body moisturizers and have many favs but this one is definitely up there.

This used to be my daily moisturiser and I honestly could not live without it. I have quite dry skin, and this used to make my skin feel smooth and hydrated. A lot of moisturisers seem hydrate my skin for a few hours, but leave me feeling dry again soon, not this one! I used to apply this at night and would wake up with my skin still very smooth and for the price point, I can't recommend this enough. It's a very affordable, good daily moisturiser.

I saw an ad for this and after trying everything for my dry feet i thought id try it, 2 years on and im still using it. It is absolutely beautiful. Leaves your feet silky soft and the heavy dryness is all gone. Its a really nice thick creamy consistency and non greasy. It absorbs beautifully. I absolutely love the product. It comes in a handy pump dispencer so its very easy to use. You dont gave to handle the bottle with cream on your hands

I finally finished off my 71ml tube of this. This is a nice moisturiser that is of a nice consistency and sinks into the skin very quickly, which I appreciate!

The product is nice, but I don't think it is anything overly special when compared to others. I used this all over my body and did find that certain areas like my elbows enjoyed the moisture and it did make a difference significantly to some areas.

On my legs however, this product did sting as it sinks in. The cream does have alcohol in it, which tends to irritate the skin on my legs in any product. So this wasn't a suprise.

I am disappointed that it irritated my legs as this is marketed as a product for sensitive skin.

I have a lot of trouble finding a body moisturiser that actually feels moisturising and keeps my skin hydrated throughout the day. Usually I find the majority drying, too greasy or non-absorbent.

I love this this one as it ticks all the right boxes for me - it brings life back to my skin, absorbs super quickly, keeps the moisture in all day and doesn't have any over-powering smell. It is thick yet spreads very easily and I love how it doesn't leave my skin feeling tight or that I have something on. It's fabulous post-shave as well.

I received a 70mL sample of Aveeno's daily moisturising lotion in one of the goody bags from Priceline.

I had not tired any products from the Aveeno range previously, but had heard good things about the brand and their products. The lotion is fragrance free and claims to be dermatologist approved and clinically proven to relieve dry skin; it contains colloidal oatmeal and claims to keep skin moisturised for 24 hours.

I found this moisturising lotion to be a great all rounder. It is easy to spread over the skin and readily absorbed without leaving any greasy residue or stickiness on the skin and does leave skin soft, hydrated and well moisturised.

I find this to be an ideal moisturiser for the body during the summer months, but may prefer a heavier or thicker moisturiser for the cooler months when my skin tends to become very dry.

Overall this a fantastic moisturiser which represents excellent value. I would definitely re-purchase this product.
