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...

My Daily Moisturizer
Our whole family uses this daily. The pump makes it super easy to use. Moisturizing but not too heavy.

The best lotion for anyone with sensitive skin. Hydrates well, absorbs well, no extra additives to irritate skin.

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!

prefer the cream
I love Vanicream products but I bought this for my hands. I prefer a cream so next time I will order the pump cream and use this as a body lotion.

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.

Vanicream lotion
I love this lotion. I have the strange combination of dry, sensitive skin that gets occasional pimples. This lotion doesn't irritate my skin or cause breakouts. Have tried the competitors and this is the best.

Bad Ingredient but Works Well
Okay but frustrated it contains BHT. Can’t believe they promoted this lotion as healthy.

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.

Vanicream lotion
I have slightly dry, sensitive skin that can be prone to acne. It is often red and itchy after cleansing or wearing foundation. Most moisturizers (even fragrance free and non comedogenic) I'll get a few pimples. I finally found a cleanser that keeps my combination skin clear but is a little drying. More importantly I found that Vanicream lotion helps calm my skin and doesn't cause pimples. I am so happy with it and plan to try Vanicream cream for winter months when my skin is drier. Giving up on anti aging products has actually helped mybskin looked better.

BEST Moisturizer for sensitive, oily, acne prone skin.
I remember my freshman year in high school I tried and returned 10 different moisturizers. I had hard time finding a moisturizer my skin actually liked. Most were too heavy or not moisturizing enough and some contained fragrance or too many ingredients. This moisturizer has changed my life and my skin for the better. I still try other moisturizers but this one is better than all of them. I hope Vanicream never changes anything about this moisturizers.

Good for sensitive skin
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!

Great sensory friendly lotion!
My teenage daughter is on the spectrum and not only picks, but rubs her hands and wrists a lot. We've been able to reduce the picking and rubbing a lot with rubber bands to snap and fidget devices, but her hands and wrists were really in need of lotion or ointment.Unfortunately, she has some sensory issues and anything that leaves any kind of residue is so uncomfortable for her that it's like torture.Vanicream for Sensitive Skin was recommended to me in a Facebook group and I am so grateful! My daughter said she likes it and that she's going to use it every day. She is so happy to find something that soaks in fast and doesn't leave her skin feeling 'weird.'Additionally, my other daughter is very sensitive to smells and wasn't wanting to use anything... until we found this product.So, this is a win for the whole family!

Love this moisturizer. It is free of a lot of irritants and great for sensitive skin while not breaking the bank.
