Vanicream Moisturizing Skin Cream with Pump Dispenser - 16 fl oz (1 lb) - Moisturizer Formulated Without Common Irritants for Those with Sensitive Skin

This stuff is the real deal. I can't believe it has any reviews lower than 5 stars. My skin LOVES this cream. I have purchased creams and moisturizers from high-end brands and spent hundreds of dollars. None of those products compare to vanicream. Not only is it budget friendly, but one jar will last you MONTHS. I have combination skin and am prone to the occasional eczema flare up. My biggest skin issue has always been how dry and flakey my cheeks get. My T-zone is very oily, which I can handle, but keeping the skin on my cheeks moisturized has been a struggle for years. I regret not learning about this product sooner. The first night I used vanicream, I woke up the next day and my skin still felt soft and bouncy. I was impressed. I continued using vanicream every night for several weeks, and I can't believe the positive effect it's had on my skin. I am not overexagerating when I say this stuff has been a game changer for me. Thinking about all the money I've wasted on name brand products makes me cringe so hard. I had such a positive experience using it on my face that I also tried using it in the bend of my arm when I had a small eczema patch appear. The next day it was cleared up. This stuff healed the eczema the same way cortisone cream does, but minus the addictive steroid! I've been using it on my face, body, and hands now, and I've not had a single negative experience yet.Now, onto the specifics. I saw so many other reviews complaining that the cream doesn't immediately soak into their skin, and that's so silly to me. If something is working for you, why complain about such a minor issue?! Yes, you have to rub this cream in well. When you first apply it to your face, it looks like you just applied a glob of sunscreen. Depending on how much you apply, it's going to take a minute or two for you to rub in the cream. I usually apply it before bed when I'm doing my usual nightly skincare routine and I have the TV playing in the background. I just watch whatever movie or series that's playing while rubbing in the cream. This stuff works so well I could not care less that I actually have to put effort into applying it.Is this a good morning cream to apply before makeup? No. Use a lighter moisturizer for that. From my experience, the formula does not work very well with makeup on top. This cream is great to use at night, before you go to bed, so that it can work it's magic while you sleep.It's fragrance free. For anyone that is sensitive to smells, you don't have to be concerned about that with this product.In terms of consistency, vanicream is somewhere in the middle. It's not super thick, but it's not runney either.One of my favorite things about this cream is that it's noncomedogenic, aka, it won't clog your pores or cause acne. So for all my acne-prone friends out there, you don't have to worry about that with vanicream.This stuff is also usable for people with sensitive skin. Being eczema prone, my skin is pretty sensitive, but I haven't experienced any negative effect from it.I really just love this stuff and my skin loves it too. You can feel it absorb into your skin, and even hours after you've applied it, your skin literally feels moisturized and bouncy. Also, because I have combination skin, my T-zone is usually pretty oily, but this cream hasn't caused any excess oil for me.I'm not sure what else to say other than to give this stuff a try. I was blown away by its effectiveness. The fact that it's so budget friendly makes me even more satisfied. No more spending $80-$100 on moisturizing creams, and that's honestly a relief in and of itself.If this review was too long to read, just know this cream is amazing, my combination/eczema prone skin loves it, and for the first time, in a long time, I feel like I've found a solid product that truly works for me. I will absolutely be buying it again...but not anytime soon because one jar will last you months!Disclaimer: I was not paid to write this review. I'm not affiliated with Vanicream or the company that produces it. I'm a genuinely happy customer sharing my experience.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:I HARDLY do reviews but OMG… this is the HOLY GRAIL. I know this isn’t the baby vanicream but I still decided to try it slowly on my 8 month old son who has been dealing with eczema. I wish I had a before pic but let me tell you, I’ve been struggling to get his eczema under control where he has creases. I have used Tubby Todd, Earths Mama, Aquaphor, Vaseline, Aveeno, Ceravae, 1% hydrocortisone AND EVEN prescribed 2.5% hydrocortisone. None of it ever made it go away, if anything a slight relief and he would flare right back up later in the day. ONLY 2 days of using Vanicream, his eczema is gone!!! Even the dry scaly part of his skin is gone and not just the redness. Like what the hell is in this lol. He hasn’t shown signs of itchiness like he normally does in his sleep which is God sent!!!

This is hands down one of the best moisturizers I’ve ever used. I have very sensitive skin and have struggled to find a cream that’s deeply hydrating without causing irritation, Vanicream is it. No fragrance, no dyes, no nonsense, just pure, moisture.The texture is thick but spreads easily and absorbs well without feeling greasy. It’s amazing for dry patches, eczema, and even post-shaving. I use it on both my face and body, and the pump dispenser makes it super convenient and mess-free. If you have sensitive, dry, or reactive skin, I can’t recommend this enough. It’s a staple in my skincare routine now!

I’ve been using this Vanicream moisturizer for about a year now after researching alternatives to another popular brand, CeraVe, for sensitive skin. I’ve actually come to prefer this over its predecessor—it feels safer and more effective at keeping my skin moisturized without any irritation.I also use it on my 8-year-old, who has very sensitive skin, and it works beautifully for her too. It’s thick but not too heavy, absorbs well, and never causes breakouts. I appreciate the squeeze nozzle, which makes application cleaner and more convenient.I experimented by adding lavender essential oil to my last batch, and while the scent was lovely at first, it faded after about a week. I do wish it came with a naturally scented option, but I understand the unscented formula is ideal for sensitive skin—which is ultimately why I stick with it.Great value, dependable performance, and gentle enough for the whole family. This is my go-to moisturizer!

This face lotion is thick. Works on sensitive skin and doesn’t cause breakouts. I try to use more in the winter due to it being so thick and having oily skin in the summer.

My legs used to suffer from nonstop dryness and ashiness. But ever since I started using Vanicream after my bath, mixed with just 2 drops of strawberry and cocoa butter oil, it's been a total glow-up.I apply it once, and my skin stays soft and moisturized all the way until the next bath. No itchiness, no flakes - just silky, happy skin. The pump is super convenient too. If your skin’s been crying out for help, this is the answer!

This moisturizer is the bomb! It keeps my skin hydrated but not super oily at the same time. It’s unlike others I have used in the past, which have always made my skin look and feel like a grease bucket! I’ve also been using it on my hands and I can honestly say that I immediately see a difference! It’s lightweight and really good quality for the price!
