Review: Vaseline Intensive Care Spray Moisturiser

Hey guys!

Today’s review is of the Vaseline Intensive Care Spray Moisturiser. I’m actually on my second bottle of this. I have the Cocoa Glow one. I both of mine from Priceline on sale for about $6AUD, which I think was half price.

THE POSITIVES:

It’s got a really nice scent to it. Also it really does absorb quickly. Not as quickly as the ads suggest, but it’s still pretty quickly. It has a nice cooling feeling on the skin when you initially spray it on, which feels awesome, especially in the morning. It feels like it helps wake the body up a little. You don’t need heaps of this to do the job. One line of spray down each of my limbs usually does the trick. It definitely isn’t greasy either, which is great, because there’s nothing worse when moisturising to finish only to feel like you’ve had an oil bath with C-3PO.

THE NEGATIVES:

Even though you don’t need to use a lot, it does run out quite quickly because you only get 190g in the bottle. I found with my first bottle that as is got older the product built up behind the spray hole and instead of spraying out in one nice stream it sprayed out everywhere. I end up spraying it into my hands and applying it like normal moisturiser.

For something that calls itself ‘Intensive Care’, it’s really not all that moisturising (on me at least). I’ve had really dry skin this winter and this really just didn’t cut it. I’ve tried the aloe one of this brand in the bottle and I find it more moisturising, which is weird to me, because I figured that they would all be basically the same formula.

THE BOTTOM LINE:

While I do like this, I don’t like it as much as I did when I first purchased it. Obviously I originally liked it enough to repurchase, but my second bottle has made me change my mind. I don’t think I’ll be getting this again. I might try the one in the pump bottle next time. The one in the bottle has more product for about the same price, which is definitely more appealing.

Are there any body moisturiser you’ve tried and loved? Let me know in the comments :)
