Disliked at first, ended up LOVING!
Size: 8 Ounce (Pack of 1)
UPDATE: I actually ended up loving this product once I started treating it as a first layer serum. I use a very small amount, let it soak in for a minute or two, and then layer a body lotion over it. Using it that way gives me the softest skim (even on rough dry areas like elbows) and it totally takes away any sticky/tacky feeling! I don’t quite know how to feel about this product. It is hands down one of the most hydrating body lotions around and immediately after application skin does feel silky and smooth. It causes no irritation and has almost no scent. However the longer it is on the more tacky and sticky it gets- even dabbing extra off with a towel does not help. It is particularly bad on the hands, I literally could not stand it because it felt like I had partially dried glue all over my hands. Strangely the one place this lotion works on is my feet and it really helps with any dryness (I’m an avid walker and hiker so my feet get dry). I would not purchase again because I can’t use it anywhere else. I wish it stayed feeling like it does immediately after application because I bet it would help skin look and feel smoother with continued use, but unless the formula changes to something that isn’t tacky and sticky it is basically worthless. Unless you want to purchase as a foot cream!

Final Vote if Still Out
Size: 8 Ounce (Pack of 1)
This cream is definitely giving the hydration. There is hardly any scent to it, which I like so that I don't feel like it's completing with other products. My skin is feeling softer and has more of a glow versus being dry. The only negative thing so far is that I feel it is a bit sticky. I am going to keep using and be consistent with it to see what the longer term benefits are.

Dove never fails us, ladies! Solid lotion for all over.
Size: 8 Ounce (Pack of 1)
They can pump out all the fancy moisturizers and lotions they want - I always come back to the originals. Dove has a brand reputation which never fails. This cream serum is awesome for all over my body after a hot shower (bc it kinda dries out my skin). Face and body, it works. Apply after shower before bed and you have a whole skincare routine. Cannot beat the price for less than $10!

It's a great deep conditioning lotion
Size: 8 Ounce (Pack of 1)
This is above and beyond your usual body Moisturizer! Very hydrating, I haven't experienced any sticky residue. It absorbs quickly, I put it on just after a shower to hold in moisture. Accidentally discovered while using a lotion applicator for my back that it also gives your hair a great deep conditioning! I didn't have any residue in my hair either.

Honestly the best
Size: 8 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I have pretty sensitive skin and have keratosis pilaris on my arms. This is honestly the best lotion I’ve ever used and I’ve tried many many lotions. My skin is soft but not greasy. My arms feel soft which is a huge deal. I’ve been using it for months now and I don’t think I’ll ever use anything else.
