submitted by Kg24 - 1 year ago
A: We take great pride in our facility and ingredient selection standards; this is what separates us from many other traditional cosmetic companies. We are an FDA-inspected cGMP facility that adheres to higher quality ingredients that include careful research in selection and rigorous in-house testing of both raw ingredients such as petrolatum as well as the finished products such as Vanicream™ Moisturizing Lotion. Our Super White Petrolatum USP is a superior grade that meets the highest standards, including the USP (United States Pharmacopeia), EP (European Pharmacopeia), and the FDA. It is highly refined, purified, filtered, tested, and passes the most stringent test to avoid harmful polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) to meet or exceed these standards.

Q: Why is there not ceramides and hylauronic acid in the lotion and cream? It's in the facial cream and I love it. Also, is the cream and lotion greasy upon application.
submitted by Lisa P - 1 year ago
A: The Vanicream Moisturizing Lotion and Cream are formulated specifically for those with sensitive skin. If you are looking for a moisturizer with Hyaluronic Acid and Ceramides, Vanicream Daily Facial Moisturizer is a great option and is also formulated without common chemical irritants.

Q: How different is this from the Vanicream Cream? I see minor (?) differences in ingredients. Has anyone used both and can compare? (I realize most skin creams and lotions are much richer in the cream formula ... )
submitted by - 6 years ago
A: My understanding is that the lotion is just lighter than the cream. Cream tends to be a way thicker consistency.

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.

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.

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!

DIYer - 2 years ago, Verified purchaser
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

TP - 2 years ago, Verified purchaser
I have sensitive, oily, acne prone skin. I LOVE this stuff. The texture is like a heavy serum. My skin DRINKS this stuff and it doesn't feel greasy or heavy once absorbed. And it's one of the most cost-effective moisturizers you can buy! I have tried the daily facial moisturizer from Vanicream as well, but the lotion is definitely more moisturizing. I would imagine the facial moisturizer would be a better AM moisturizer.

This helps with eczema or if you just have sensitive skin. This the only thing my kid uses for his face and body. Also a must buy if you want to be moisturized without having to worry about any unnecessary additions.

I was diagnosed with Rosacea this year and this was recommended by my dermatologist. I decided to give it a try because it seemed to have pretty good ingredients, good reviews, and no scent! I love the price and have had this for a while now. I feel like it will last forever. It goes on very smooth and doesn’t leave an oily residue. I also use it for my tattoos and overall body lotion so I don’t feel sticky.

Vanicream is high quality with unnecessary fillers at drugstore price. It’s lightweight and sinks in nicely. Love this lotion, love their cream, and wish they’d bring back their hydrocortisone!!
