Editor Review

Rated a 9

Warning: Application of this vitamin E-packed moisturizer may attract mamas' boys and cookie cravings. Side effects also include over-application and constant urges to sniff or lick oneself. (Seriously, the scent is strong.) The rich, smooth lotion doubles skin's moisture without being too heavy or greasy. A pump bottle makes reaching lotion at the bottom difficult. I use so much, I have to buy two bottles at once. (At five bucks a pop, I can afford it.)

    Great value, great product!

    I decided to try this after reading the editor's review, and I really like it. And I usually follow a strict "fragrance-free" policy with most products. The scent is heavy at first, but after application it mellows to a very pleasant, soft, natural vanilla scent. It absorbs quickly and is not too greasy. I like to... use a little on my heels, elbows and knees before applying self-tanner. I got mine on sale for less than $4, so it's a bargain! May 30, 2008, 3:52 pm

    As a nurse im contantly on the search for a great hand cream and St. Ives has never let me down, it never leaves a greasy feeling and absorbs into my skin leaving my hands soft, and that's after washing them at least 30 times a day, so this lotion is good July 19, 2008, 8:12 am

    Great Scent and Soft Skin

    by Stef42678 (279 reviews)
    Top 100 ReviewerTrusted Review
    I love the scent of this lotion and it definitely keeps your skin from drying out. The scent is of sweet vanilla and the lotion is absorbed quickly without being greasy. The formula hydrates your skin for a long lasting great scent and protection from dry skin. July 22, 2008, 4:55 pm

    thank goodness for reviews

    by corizotti (511 reviews)

    i never treid this before i saw all these great reviews! i use st ives other lotions and body wash with great success, and i am always pleased by the very affordable price. this smells like vanilla cake, ice cream and frosting all at once. its strong and very sweet so somedays [if there is no vanilla note in my perfume that... day] i cant wear it, unless i think the vanilla would mingle well with the other scent. for example, i have a scent called 'absinthe', which smells very strong, and smoky and the vanilla adds a warm, familiar under current to that. the lotion itself leaves your skin soft and isnt greasy, but you might need a stronger formula for severe dry skin.
