She {hearts} Carmex Skin Care

by Aliesha on October 26, 2011

I don’t know about you, but during the fall and winter seasons, my hands need a little extra TLC to keep from being dry and succumbing to eczema! I love

Carmex’s new line of Healing Lotion and Healing Cream!

The Healing Lotion is great for everyday use anywhere your skin feels dry! I love that the ingredient list includes aloe and Vitamin E, and that it has a soft scent. The non-greasy formula is a definite plus as well! You can find this lotion in a tube or a pump.

The Healing Cream is more concentrated and designed for your most dry spots (elbows, etc.), and also has a non-greasy formula. It has nine healing ingredients, including cocoa butter and lanolin, and it easily soaks into your dry skin to provide healing. The scent of this lotion was my favorite between the two!!

{heart} It

Suggested retail price for each full size tube of Carmex Healing Lotion and Healing Cream is $5.99, and $.99 for each smaller size tube. These products are available now at Walgreens and CVS, but will be on shelves at Wal-mart soon.

1 Amanda October 26, 2011 at 7:26 am: I just saw an ad for this in a magazine and decided I HAD to try it. I love carmex lip products and I’m glad to read your review of this and to know that it has a soft scent and non-greasy feel — 2 things I was wondering about. I need it because I’m a mom and homemaker and I am constantly washing my hands, washing dishes, doing laundry, cleaning, etc. My hands are (some of) my most important tools! :-)
