I liked this lotion at first, but it had a slight odd scent that wasn't exactly pleasant... and then it turned... rancid? Now it has a slightly fishy scent. Ugh. Unacceptable for a pricey product.

I love this lotion, as it is unscented and can be used anywhere on the body, even the face or hair. It is a thin liquidy consistency and a little goes a long way. I find that the lotion in the pump bo...Read more

Meh, it's not anything special. I use it on my hands and arms, it's no more or less moisturizing than Eucerin or Lubriderm. The smell is minimal, just slightly medicinal, and not offensive. I do li...Read more

I was hoping for a little more from this product - I don't mind the smell, it isn't too greasy - I just wish it helped with the dry, scaly patches on my arms. Other than that, I like this product.
