    Has a powdery finish

    I really wanted to like this lotion for sensitive skin as I have used the thicker cream in the jar previously. The texture to me leaves a powdery matt feeling on my hands. No adverse reactions though. And further review of other reviews, I am also hypothyroid and was not aware of the BHT ingredient. My hand lotion search continues...

    Vanicream is my go-to for dry, sensitive skin.

    Having sensitive skin, and allergies to a lot of added chemicals and frangrances common in many products, Vanicream is my go to! I use all of their products and the lotion is a favorite. The lotion is lighter than their cream, and in those times that my skin needs a bit more moisture due to dry climate or weather conditions, I've found my perfect solution -- combine the Vanicream Lotion with the Vanicream Cream and voila! Perfectly moisurized skin!

    Great for sensitive skin

    I have stupidly sensitive skin, with excema, and sebhorraic dermatitis. Vanicream and exerderm are about the only brands I can tolerate so I use almost all of their products! Made in the US and consistent quality. Definitely recommend!

    Sensitive approved

    This is the only thing my dermatitis prone skin likes, I can use it on my sensitive eyes, neck and really all over. Only moisturizer I’ve found that doesn’t make my skin sting or burn or itch

    Not thick enough

    I was hoping to find a lotion curated for sensitive skin without any harmful chemicals, that wouldn’t irritate my skin while providing moisture. It didn’t cause any adverse reactions however, it unfortunatly was not thick enough to keep my skin moisturized. I need a thicker lotion and will not be repurchasing. If you have above average dry skin, I do not recommend purchasing.

    Contains BHT, Do NOT use if you have an autoimmune or tyroid issue.

    This product contains BHT, an endocrine and thyroid disruptor. I have hyperthyroidism and Since using this product, my lab tests drastically worsened. I started scanning my products with an ingredient scanner app and found this one with a red flag. Since I threw it out, my lab tests have improved again.

    Not for sensitive skin at all

    This is more like a cream and not a lotion, I don’t think it would be suitable for sensing as it is so thick and greasy. Maybe good for hand cream, I will not be purchasing this again.

    Thick and moisturizing. Great for sensitive skin and it has no scent. I’ve been using it while on Accutane, and it works amazingly. A little goes a long way with this moisturizer!

    Quality changed, terrible product

    Made skin feel weirdly tight and dry. Caused blocked pores. This brand has gone downhill significantly. It used to be my go to for my sensitive skin but now I have to yet again try to find a product with consistency of quality. This aint it.

    Great lotion

    This lotion is perfect for anyone with sensitive skin. It doesn't contain many of the allergens or fragrances found in most lotions. Only complaint was that the bottle was damaged from poor packaging. It was only dented and not punctured, so I could still use it.

    Great basic moisturizer

    My dermatologist recommended vanicream and I usually the cream but it’s a bit too heavy in the summer. This was a little light for my dry skin but mixing the cream in was a perfect consistency. This never breaks me out and I’ve started using it for my body moisturizer also. I love that it’s fragrance free also
