Pros: All-day moisturizing, smells great, softens skin, feels light
Cons: The pump can't get out every last drop so I have to pour it out.
The Bottom Line: Cheap & effective; Smoothing & soothing. This is a winner.

| shopprnicole's Full Review: Jergens Skin Smoothing Lotion |
(I don't know why some people have written a review for Jergens Skin Firming lotion under this product, but this category is for Skin Smoothing lotion and that is what my review is on). I have been using this lotion for the past 4 years. It is my "summer lotion" and I haven't found a better product to replace it yet.
Packaging
Front says:
Jergens Skincare Skin Smoothing Lotion
Gently Exfoliates Dry Flaky Skin with Beta & Alpha Hydroxy
Skin Type: Extra Dry
24 fl oz (709 ml)
*I have the big bottle with the pump, but they also sell smaller sizes*
Back says:
Flaky Extra Dry Skin can look dull & ashy and feel rough. It needs an effective moisturizer that can restore a smooth look & feel.
Jergens Skin Smoothing Lotion gently exfoliates unsightly dry flakes and leaves your extra dry skin looking & feeling touchably soft & healthy. This lotion, which contains Beta & Alpha Hydroxy plus Vitamin E, works in two ways to restore smoothness by:
1) gently exfoliating dry skin flakes, and
2) absorbing beneath the skin's surface to help replenish lost moisture.
Beta & Alpha Hydroxy -- Help to restore a smooth look & feel by gently exfoliating dull, dry skin.
Vitamin E -- An antioxidant that helps soothe dry skin and restore smoothness.

In Use
The lotion is white and rubs in quickly and easily. It dries within a minute and then your skin feels normal. (By normal I mean it doesn't feel sticky/slimy/etc). It instantly moisturizes your skin and leaves it feeling smooth and soft. I tend to get very dry skin and this lotion leaves me moisturized all day. It is made for Extra Dry skin but even when my skin isn't too dry I use it anyway because it is not thick or heavy-feeling. I think this lotion works much better than Jergens Ultra Healing Lotion which is also for Extra Dry skin, and it smells 100 times better also! The scent is a light feminine scent which I have gotten complimented on.
Results
This lotion works very well for me. I sometimes get dry bumps on the back of my thighs and when I use this lotion the bumps go away and my skin gets much smoother. It does a great job of moisturizing and is very light and refreshing. I also enjoy using it after I go to the beach and have a sunburn because it feels smoothing & soothing. Sometimes I refer to it as "skin soothing" lotion because it always feels great on tired skin. It is great year-round because it keeps my elbows from being ashy in the winter but is light enough to use in the summer as well. I highly recommend Jergens Skin Smoothing lotion!
Price
The price tag is still on my bottle-- $3.84 for the giant pump bottle! At a price like this with results like this, I have been a customer for 4 years.
