Product Description:

Wrap your skin in soothing hydration with this award-winning St. Ives Soothing Oatmeal & Shea Lotion. Natural ingredients help deliver long-lasting relief from itchy, dry skin. This formula, with oatmeal and naturally rich shea butter nourishes and intensely hydrates the skin for immediate relief, while it works to  restore your skin back to health. Apply daily to achieve the soft, smooth and healthy look and feel that your skin deserves.

Key Ingredients:

 

OATMEAL is a naturally occurring, anti-itch ingredient. Once it solves that challenge, mighty, mineral-rich oatmeal goes to work to gently soothe and help to soften your skin.

SHEA BUTTER is known to be rich in natural, skin-protecting vitamins A, E and F, as well as high levels of fatty acids, which can work wonders for moisture-deprived skin. Centuries of soothed, balanced hydrated skin also help to reinforce how beautifully effective shea butter can be.

Application:

 

Smooth into skin once or twice daily, or as often as needed. Daily use will provide best firming results and will prevent over-dry skin from recurring.

My Experience:

Its a jumbo bottle with a pump. It has a very nice scent.  

My moisture hungry skin

 

The consistency is some where between lotion and creamy, a little bit thick, but not greasy Just Perfect .


 

Pea size lotion on my skin

 It is not too runny or too thick has a nice texture hence it spreads well.  

Nicely Spread, Great texture

It is nice for putting on after a shower to smell nice but not overpowering & moisturizes well.   I really love the way the lotion feels.  It provides great dryness relief for skin that is prone to dryness, like mine And it provides long-lasting relief.
