little white truths

The cream spreads well and it doesn't call for heaps of product per application, so it's good for those like me who get through body cream all too quickly.

It has a tacky finish that won't be for everyone (indeed, my fingers are sticking to the keyboard a little as I type because I applied some earlier) and I wasn't surprised to see that glycerin is listed as the second ingredient. So if you don't like creams that leave your skin feeling tacky or make your limbs stick to your clothing, then this mightn't be for you.

On the claims: yes I do think it moisturises reasonably but I wouldn't call this a hydration powerhouse, and I do think that part of the problem here is that not all of the product absorbs; I'm not getting the 'luminous' thing but the glycerin does leave the skin a touch shiny, if you want to call that the same thing; and yes it's lightly scented with coconut, but as mentioned, the fragrance is very faint. I'm also not feeling that this helps with future dehydration 'by delivering a continuous supply of moisture to the skin', because I think that the tacky finish is offering a bit of shine but not doing much else.

All in all, this cream is fine but it wouldn't be my personal pick from Jergens' range (I suggest the two linked above) and it's not one I would buy. It's ok, but better creams are available in this price-bracket.

Fine.
