St. Ives Intensive Healing Body Lotion, Cranberry and Grapeseed Oil 21 oz

Wow! I'm impressed with this lotion. To be honest, I usually just buy cheap lotion. I mean really cheap lotion, like from the dollar store, thinking how much different could it be? Isn't lotion just lotion with different marketing and/or packaging? Oh, but I was a naive girl! St. Ive's Intensive Healing Body Lotion is thick & creamy, my skin drinks it up and doesn't feel sticky. Best of all though, I put it on at night after showering and it lasts a full day till the next night. I no longer get that unpleasant dry, tight winter-skin feeling where you feel all sand-papery and scratchy, like the only thing that might help would be sitting in a vat of lotion. I'm a convert.

This lotion moisturizes really well, but has a light texture and absorbs quickly. My skin looks and feels super soft. Probably my favorite thing, though, is the scent - with so many cheap lotions out there, scent makes one stand out over others, and this has a very natural smell of light cranberry juice (due, possibly, to the cranberry seed oil ingredient, but there is added fragrance). I love that it's suitable for sensitive skin and has many natural moisturizers, though I do feel that with the claim of "100% natural moisturizers" and the tag line of "Fresh. Better. Naturally" people may be misled into thinking the product is completely natural in itself.It may be worth noting to some that the ingredients on the Amazon listing were somewhat different from the ingredients on the bottle I received, which are:Water, Glycerin, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, Cetearyl Alcohol, Glycine Soja (Soybean) Oil, Stearic Acid, Cetyl Alcohol, Urea, Mangifera Indica (Mango) Seed Butter, Theobrama Cacao (Cocoa) Seed Butter, Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil, Olea Europaea (Olive) Leaf Extract, Vitis Vinifera (Grape) Seed Oil, Vaccinium Macrocarpon (Cranberry) Seed Oil, Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea) Butter, Dimethicone, PEG-100 Stearate, Cyclopentasiloxane, Cyclohexasiloxane, Carbomer, Fragrance, Triethanolamine, BHT, Phenoxyethanol, Methylisothiazolinone, Caprilyl Glycol, Disodium EDTA.

Ooooo how silky my winter skin is!!! This is by far best non-greasy healing lotion! Faintly smells, so my hubby can use it on his mechanic dry, cut, split, hands as well. I use it EVERYDAY when I get out from the shower, from neck to tip toe! With no build-up, I always look forward to my next session with it! I faithfully massage it in nightly as well and it helps my skin feel smooth as a babies bottom and I still feel extremely soft after a shower! Such a quality product. I highly recommend it! I can't wait to see what it does to my skin in the summer after a long day at the pool! Amazon offers an incredible value!

When I saw "Intensive Healing" I was thinking this might be comparable to Gold Bond, which I hate buying because of the price and the fact that the last 1/4 of the lotion gets stuck in the bottom of the bottle. Unfortunately, it doesn't work quite that well, but it does work. It feels good going on, and definitely last the day, but if your looking for it to help with severe dry skin patches or psoriasis, it won't really do that. Smells good, not too strong or heavy and doesn't linger. Happy Moisturizing!

Great lotion that is always hard to find!

Me encanto la textura y el olor

I love St. Ives body lotions and this one is no exception. It has no real scent to it, and the formulation is nice and thick. I use this mainly in the winter because it does a very good job of keeping my skin hydrated without feeling like I just covered myself in grease. It soaks in quickly and works very well. I highly recommend this body lotion!

I got a sample size of this lotion when I was traveling in Maui and liked it so much I came home and got two giant bottles from Amazon. I keep one on my desk and one at home. It isn't sticky or greasy and it has the most pleasant, very light scent. It seems like much more expensive lotion than it is.
