Hello Everyone,
The biggest challenge for me in winters is to keep my skin nourished and moisturised. My skin becomes dry and lifeless in winters. Hunting for the lotion which can tackle my all skin related problems is another big task for me. I keep on hopping from one lotion to the other with a hope that one day I will find my HG body lotion.
What the product says
It is believed that healthy looking skin starts with deep moisturisation. Vaseline has now infused their lotions with micro-droplets of Vaseline Petroleum Jelly so that they can moisturise the skin even more deeply and restore its healthy look. Regular usage of Vaseline Intensive Care Advanced Repair Variant not only moisturises the skin but also relieve even the stubborn very dry patches of the skin. It is appropriate for sensitive skin as it is lightly scented.
How it works
It is quick absorbing, non-greasy formula with a light, mild scent, which gives you intense moisturization and helps in healing dry skin.
Direction for application: Apply directly on the skin. Use it twice a day for the best result.
Results: It effectively moisturises all type of skin and keep them restored for 3 weeks.
My Take on ‘Vaseline Intensive Care Advanced Repair Body Lotion’
I am using Vaseline since ages. I still remember that my mother used to apply Vaseline’s Total Moisture Body Lotion in winters before sending me to school. I stopped using it after I joined college and started experimenting with different lotions with cute packaging and tempting fragrances. But no matter how many new brands I try, I always keep coming back to my all-time favorite lotion i.e., Vaseline Cocoa Glow lotion. This lotion gives me a reason to wait for winters. I love its yummillicious chocolaty smell.
Few days back when I saw a random post on Instagram in which a girl was showing her recent haul, I noticed this lotion. I quickly googled it and find that it is a newly launched lotion in Indian Market. It claims to heal even the super dry skin and that too within 5 days. This tempting claim was enough for me to instantly add this lotion to my shopping list. Before sharing my experience with you, I want to quickly give an idea about my skin type. I have dry skin which turns super dry as soon as winters approach. In winters my skin needs heavy moisturisation otherwise it starts looking dull and dry.
This lotion comes in an opaque white plastic bottle. It has typical “Vaseline” packaging. The upper lid is tight enough to avoid any leaking of the lotion while travelling. The lotion has very mild sweet floral smell which vanishes after half an hour. The lotion has little thick consistency, so you need to massage the lotion for few minutes. Once it completely absorbs into the skin, the skin looks deeply nourished and healthy. It doesn’t leave any greasiness or oiliness behind.
I usually apply this lotion before hitting the bed to wake up with healed, nourished and glowing skin. It has helped in removing the dryness from my elbows. My hands also look much healthy than before. Sometimes instead of applying cream or Vaseline Petroleum Jelly, I apply this lotion on my feet. It helps in healing the dry and cracked heels but only upto an extent. I haven’t noticed any major change in that particular area. So I stopped using it on my feet and restricted its usage on my hands and legs only.
Absence of SPF factor makes it unsuitable if you have to step out of the house during day time. It doesn’t provide any protection from the harmful sun rays. I read somewhere about the importance of using SPF even during the winters. Now I always make sure that lotion and day cream contain the needed SPF before facing the sun.
Overall it’s a decent lotion, you will not regret buying it. It fulfils all the claims which are mentioned on the bottle. It repairs dry and damaged skin and makes it soft and healthy. It works wonderfully on dry skin or should I say super dry skin. It is perfect for harsh and dry winters. The only thing which I didn’t like about it is the absence of SPF content. Otherwise it’s an amazing product from an amazing brand.

Great review. I love Vaseline body lotions and this is the only one I haven’t tried yet. I will one day :)
Nice review! I have super dry skin as well, and I have tried other variants of vaseline. Unfortunately nothing worked for me, glad it has worked out for you.
Nice detailed review dear. Will look out for this one :)
Great Post,
Happy 2016 !
Hi there,
Is the petroleum jelly version better on super dry skin as it’s more concentrated?
