After the long, hot summers we have here in the South, I look forward to winter each year, but the thing I dislike about winter most is the dry skin issues our entire family has. 

I constantly wash my hands and use a ton of antibacterial hand sanitizer on a daily basis, so my hands are always super dry.  My son also has dryness issues, especially on his knees and elbows.  And as winter ushers in, it just exacerbates those dryness issues even more.

We were recently given the opportunity to try out Johnson’s Shea & Cocoa Butter line of baby oil products to see how they worked for our specific dry skin issues.

OUR THOUGHTS:

The Johnson’s Baby Creamy Oil (the lotion on the left) was the most effective for my dry hands and my son’s skin without leaving the feeling of being greasy.  I love the scent of shea and cocoa butter, but feel it could be toned down a notch.  The smell didn’t bother me, but my son complained about it. (He is overly sensitive to things, so this is just our experience)  I used the creamy baby oil on my son after his bath and also rubbed it into my own hands while dressing him. Overall, I was pleased with the Creamy Baby Oil the most and feel it’s the best fit of the three products for our family. 

I love the concept of a baby oil in a gel, but it still left behind a feeling of greasiness that I just don’t like on my hands or clothes.  The baby oil was completely too greasy.  I really thought the oil and oil gel would absorb into the skin much better than it did, but it still left behind a wet, greasy feeling.  Perhaps if someone had major dry skin issues this would work really well for them, but I think of the three products, we will stick with the creamy oil.

I wrote this review while participating in a blog tour campaign by Mom Central on behalf of Johnson’s and received the products necessary to facilitate my review. In addition, I received a gift certificate to thank me for taking the time to participate.

    Sounds like great products. I’m not to sure I’d use the gel, I don’t understand that but maybe it would be good for babies with cradle cap?
