Vaseline Intensive Care Hand Cream Hand and Nail Lotion

Vaseline is a well known brand in most new Zealand chain stores and supermarkets. Vaseline was a brand I grew up using. My mum used to buy me most of their body lotions. So far I've seen this brand evolve from the famous petroleum jelly jar to innovative spray on moisturisers.

This hand cream comes in a generous sized 75 ml bottle that sits on itself. It has this subtle baby pink coloured bottle. Has that deep blue and white labelling that I associate with Vaseline instantly when I see it. This cream is a light pinky white colour that's medium in thickness. It has a creamy baby powder scent that's subtly good.

My skin type is dry. I wash dishes a lot every day without gloves and my hands become very dry. When I use this I like to get out a generous amount. This absorbs wonderfully into my skin. Leaving my hands feeling soft and hydrated.

Its a handy little bottle to pop into your handbag. A little each day goes a long way. This was my first experience with hand creams. I probably wouldn't buy it again because I'm a full blown lush addict.

During winter my hands and nails get so dry so I purchased this cream. It comes in 75ml squeeze tube. Smells lovely and feels light and velvety on skin. But it only leaves hands and nails looking and feeling moisturized for a short time. I find any other moisturiser does this job too. Be good if it lasted longer.

I've tried many products. I find that this cream needs to be used repeatedly because the protection wears off. It's non greasy which is great. It's states that it needs to be used several times a day to get the effect you want which means you going to use a lot more and end up spending a lot more to replace the product

In comparasion to other hand creams I have tried, this is very lightweight and the fragrance is quite strong.

The formula absorbs well however I have never noticed any real difference to my hands when using this cream. For instance, using this hand cream did not prevent the development of hang nails like other creams I have used in the past has.

This is an affordable and accessible option when you can not get your preferred hand cream.

This cream is ok if your hands aren't very dry. It smells nice but isn't as nourishing as other hand creams that I've used. I use my hands a lot with cleaning, food prep and gardening etc so I need more moisturisation. It didn't help to strengthen my nails either.

Vaseline is so well known and been around so long, I thought this would be a good, solid moisturiser. I didn't find it to be.

The packaging is nice enough, and the moisturiser comes out easily without too much escaping. The product absorbs well, and it isn't greasy. But I just felt like I hadn't done much, the moisturisation didn't last very long. I like a thicker formula that feels like it is actually doing something.

Another thing I didn't find very good was the smell, it was quite overpowering for me. I struggle with scents and this started to give me a headache after awhile. It was ok if I was out and about, but at home or when I was working it would be too strong. I didn't notice it doing anything to my nails.

All up I wouldn't repurchase as I don't think it was Intensive, and I don't like the smell.

This was a very disappointing purchase. I had used this solidly for a month and found this product no different to the normal Vaseline moisturiser. I didn't notice any difference in my nails/cuticles. I am an avid hand cream user so was disappointed this had no effect on the smoothing of my cuticles or the strengthing of my nails. There are many other hand and nail creams that do a much better job. This is an overpriced product for what effectively is just an average hand cream.

I bought this product when working full time in hospitality as my hands were always dry and itchy and this was the first hand cream I saw in the supermarket.

The packaging is simple and neat it comes in a pink squeeze tube with a navy lid. It wasn't amazing packaging but is practical to use.

The product smells okay but the scent can be a little bit to strong for me as it isn't a scent I would usually go for. I also didn't like the consistency of the product. I like thicker creams and this was on the watery side, a little went a long way but if you put to much on your hands it makes them extremely greasy and it doesn't sink in quickly. I also didn't find it very hydrating as the residue would just sit on top of my hands.

I would not repurchase as I felt like this product did nothing for me and could probably find a better one that suits my skin type better.
