Review: Jergens Replenishing Vitamin E Gentle Exfoliating Moisturizer


Price: around 8$ for 200 ml / 6.7 FL. OZ.

The claims:


Ingredients:


Pros:
  • quickly absorbed in the skin
  • imediately leaves skin feeling soft and smooth  
  • not greasy
  • convenient pump bottle
  • you get a good quantity of product for a nice price
Cons:
  • this product is claimed to be rich, but it's really light
  • did not get rid of all my dry patches
  • smells strange
  • I haven't noticed any exfoliation

What I think:
I've never heard of exfoliating moisturizers before, so I was excited to give this product a try. Though it's a great product, I was disappointed to not see any exfoliation effects after using it. There's no exfoliating beads or anything in the lotion, so I didn't really know what to expect. I have noticed my skin to be soft and smooth after using the lotion, but I would have hoped to see more obvious results.

Overall, this is a great lotion, even if I'm more of a a body butter girl. I find this lotion to be quite light and watery, but I guess that's why it is so quickly absorbed into the skin.


Recommend? yes

  5. I have an over the counter lotion that has lactic acid in it to get rid of bumps. I don't really notice much of an exfoliation effect after using it, but I swear it does. I hate how sticky it is so I'm going to try this stuff out. thanks for reviewing it.

  11. Hi Gaby! Yes I think it would be hard of me to review a lotion like this because I wouldn't really know what to expect from an exfoliating lotion when there's no exfoliating beads....I guess if it hydrated my skin that's all I could expect? ;) I'm glad you like the lotion though!
