[review] Jergens Lotions Series

Advertorial

When it comes to beauty, most of our attention tends to go to the face. Whether do we have nice makeup on, whether can we try to minimise the number of pimples popping on our faces, whether can our faces be less oily and our pores be smaller.

But when it comes to our body...


it is merely just: *puts shower gel and washes off*

That's quite unfair right? We have more skin on our body leh.

Ok I am sure that's not what all people do, but that's essentially what I do. Until one day I realised my shower gel is actually stripping away moisture from my body, thankfully not to the extent that it flakes, but my skin didn't feel smooth to touch and for a second I thought I aged by like 100 years old.


After that incident I began to look at what more care I can give to my body. Obviously I avoided using that shower gel (forever!!!!!) but I also got more interested in wanting to make my body look and feel better. Jergens came by and helped lol. I have to admit prior to this, I did not know that Jergens is the no. 1 brand in US. There is some comfort in knowing that Jergens must work otherwise it wouldn't be no. 1 right?

So I was given three types of lotion: Ultra Healing (orange), Daily Moisture(blue)  and Soothing Aloe (green). 

As the names suggest

Ultra Healing:  to repair your skin and make it look healthier. (contains Vitamin C, E & B5)
Soothing Aloe: to revive skin for visibly more refreshed skin (contains cucumber extract and aloe vera)
Daily Moisture: Improve texture for visibly smoother skin (contains silk proteins and citrus extract)


Also as a bonus, in addition to these primary function, 96% of the women surveyed experience all-day skin luminosity (thanks to their trademark - Hydralucence). I don't know what luminosity means to you, but to me it means like having those shine we see on model's leg that is not due to oil or water reflection lol.

I picked the soothing aloe version to use because I do not have any major stuff on my skin that needs healing. The formulation for that is naturally thicker and richer - which is something I do not require. I did not pick daily moisture version as well because it still feels too rich for me and the lotion took longer to absorb. I do not have the luxury of time (to wait) so I ended up using soothing aloe. 

Soothing aloe does give me sufficient moisture and at the same time it absorbs faster into my skin which I really liked. As a bonus, the scent was also pleasant and not too overwhelming like the Ultra Healing was. My boyfriend had some eczema on his legs and after using ultra healing, he said that he didn't like the scent nor the slow rate of absorbency very much, but did admit that his skin feels healthier so I guess it does what it said it would! I also saw the 'luminosity' like the other respondents under the spotlights in my house :D I would suggest to use the soothing aloe version if you need something to maintain your current skin moisture level!

All these lotions you have seen are in its retail size of 400ml and they can be found in supermarkets, pharmacies and personal care store for SGD8.90 which is quite cheap for a 400ml bottle! Go try them today :)
