Pros Not greasy
Fast absorbing
Makes skin healthier
Cons None!
Bottom line I absolutely love this lotion. I use every day. It's not greasy at all. My skin feels so smooth and looks radiant. My skin looks better than a lot of the girls I work with. I use immediately after showering. I even put this on my face at night--my face looks great when I wake up. I have really oily skin and this doesn't add to it. I live in Tucson, AZ and I don't sweat it off at all with temps of 110+. It smells so delicious. I threw out all the other lotions because this is my one and only lotion.

Pros -Moisturizes on contact
-30 min - 1 hour after application, it's totally soaked in and your skin feels as smooth as a glass surface, not kidding!
-Soothes irritated redness after 30 min (shaving related)
-Nice, tame smell
-Thick BUT water based = no grease
-Large container, pump, inexpensive per ounce
Cons -Bc it's water based it can be sweated off or washed off easily if you don't give it enough time to absorb
-Contains Mineral Oil, Methylparaben (parabens clog pores and mineral oil is derived from petroleum ... yikes!)

(That was for those of you ingredient conscious!)

Been using for a few months now. Very moisturizing but not greasy. Pleasant smell, nice thick texture. If you keep it cool, it also has a nice soothing/cooling effect. I have very sensitive body skin that gets irritated by sweat, friction and shaving VERY easily, erupting in bumps and sometimes acne. This stuff calms the irritation down and smooths the skin. Great to use on legs after shaving. Absorbs almost instantly.
