Does not absorb into skin
This product is thick and spreads easily. However, it does not absorb well into skin. I felt like I was applying a coating instead of a cream. I applied at bed time, and the next morning I still felt like I had a coating (or plastic wrap!) on my skin. This cream may provide a "barrier'', but it does not soak in or soften skin! This product contains a lot of synthetic ingredients, and they just sit on top of the skin. Not good.

Always the Right Moisturizer
It's fun to try different products that make promises of being new! better!, but the year-over-year reliability of Vanicream is what keeps me coming back. It is fragrance-free and completely non-irritating to my face, an area that has become increasingly particular with time. It goes on easily and I can feel it being absorbed right away. If my face feels tight, I apply a little more. For a modest price, I can indulge my skin's needs, particularly comforting as winter sets in and turns us all to parchment paper.

Husband LOVES it!
My husband has rosacea and gets terribly dry when the weather gets cold. Our dermatologist recommended this cream so I ordered - he LOVES it. He's super picky about face lotion as he can't stand thick creams or stuff that leaves you looking shiny. He has used this daily and even commented how impressed it was with it - definitely a keeper!!!

Go-To Lotion
My dermatologist told me that this lotion was the only type he recommends. I have very dry, sensitive and rosacea-prone skin and this lotion is the best. Very hydrating, no pilling and provides a nice base for makeup. I use this on my face and body - my skin loves it.

Not for Me
I thought this cream was too heavy, and my skin did not absorb it. It almost felt waxy. My mistake was that I was looking for a face cream and this clearly is not light enough for that.

Vanicream Moisturizer
Decided to try this out as I tend to get very dry skin when the weather changes. Love that this product has minimal ingredients and no fragrance. Has really helped with dryness.

Excellent Cream
My dermatologist recommended this cream when I developed bright red patches on my cheeks overnight. It helped to calm down the redness in a matter of days along with switching to Vanicream Soap instead of the fragranced soap that may have caused the problem.

Great Affordable Product for Winter Skin
Does the job for after bath and on dry days and did not provoke a response on the sensitive skin of spouse. A go-to.

Favorite moisturizer!
The Vanicream brand was recommended to me by my dermatologist when I started accutane treatment. I used it throughout my course and have continued because I love it so much. It provides a good amount of moisture and never irritates my sensitive skin.

Love this Product - Great Hydration
I have been using Vanicreme for years. This is a great moisturizing cream for dry skin. I use it on my hands during the dry, cold, winter months. It is non-greasy and absorbs into the skin quickly.

Not too heavy
This is a nice moisturizing body lotion, with a very convenient pump. No fragrance, not heavy or sticky. Love the convenience of a pump. This is my second purchase.

Great Moisturizer!
I purchased the travel size to test this moisturizer. It absorbs quickly and doesn't leave a heavy residue on my skin. It works well for my body and dry hands throughout the day.

Vanicream Moisturizing Skin Cream
It was recommended by my Dermatologist that diagnosed me with dermatitis to use Vanicream z-bar or gentle facial cleanser and to follow it up with the Vanicream moisturizer. The moisturizer is not to heavy or sticky and gentle enough to use twice a day. This is the best moisturizer I’ve ever used. I love the gentleness of it and that it’s non-greasy. I recommend this moisturizer to anyone that’s searching for a gentle, non-greasy moisturizer.

Great for a light moisturizer
This was my first purchase of the Vanicream skin cream. While I do like it, it did not alleviate my dryness. The perfect solution was to combine it with Vanicream ointment, in the palm of my hand, prior to application. The 2 products in combination seem to be just what I need in the dry climate I live in.

Vanicream Skin Cream
I have eczema and this is the only cream that has worked for me. It moisturizes, but doesn't irritate my skin. The cream is not overly greasy and can be used on any body part. I love the Vanicream products!
