Lotion: Like it or hate it? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Do you like lotion or do you hate lotion?

I hate lotion. I don't like how it feels slimy. The only time I ever put lotion on is when I absolutely have to. I had to put some lotion on my hands earlier because they were so dry and hurt.

Lotion is a necessity for me, my hands get so dry in the winter.

Nighthawk76 · 12-04-2009, 03:54 AM

I don't like using it, but I tend to have to in the winter because my hands can get really dry.

I'm with Jenny, I hate the slimy feeling lotion leaves behind. I have found one that I love though that doesn't feel slimy at all. It has the texture of a mousse like you would use on your hair, but it's not sticky.

Jenny, you may want to give this one a try, it's wonderful!

I like lotion, but don't use it often. I, too, hate the slimy/sticky feeling. Plus I don't like the scent that gets left behind. It's why I love Queen Helene aloe lotion - not slimy at all, and sensitive-friendly, too.

I would rather go without it, but if you could only see my hands when the cold air hits. I love Cocoa Butter not only because it works but it makes me smell like chocolate!!! I love chocolate.

Same here, except my hands get dry ALL the time!

I have really dry skin, particulary my hands, so I use lotion often.

browneyes106 · 12-04-2009, 03:33 PM

I'm ok with lotion but I don't use it daily.

MrCleveland · 12-04-2009, 04:31 PM

I don't use it much, but I like to use lotion once in awhile. (don't ask)

Janice · 12-04-2009, 05:23 PM

I have to use it, especially in the winter. I find that Eucerin or Lubridern isn't greasy, so I use that for my body, and I use Olay for my face.

That reminds me, I use a different lotion for my face. My face gets lotion more often than the rest of my body - I should work on that.

I use Garnier Nutritioniste, the Skin Renew formula. Oh. My. God. I LOVE that stuff. It's in a little jar and you have to dip your finger in it, but that stuff REALLY works (and it lasts ya quite a while!). I was having problems finding a good face lotion that wouldn't make my face still peel after I'd applied lotion... Garnier does a really good job of moisturizing my skin - I can go two days without needing to apply it to my face.

I don't have a problem with lotion leaving a residue. I HAVE to use it, my skin gets so dry and chapped

Schmoopie · 12-05-2009, 04:42 AM

I love lotion, but some are definitely better than others. The best I've found is Burt's Bees Milk and Honey brand. It absorbs quickly and even though we are prohibited from wearing scented products at work, this stuff doesn't have much fragrance, yet it smells good and really makes my dry skin feel much better.

I like it, it's a must for me I have really dry skin. I think due to age and diabetes. I use Dove cream oil lotion it doesn't feel greasy at all, my skin sucks it in after the shower.
