I initially got this lotion, along with other Aveeno products, as a free gift at my grocery store and was quite excited to try them. The green and beige packaging boasts natural ingredients which I am all about; however, the product does contain alcohol in it which is not my favorite ingredient in lotions, especially for my hands as alcohol wreaks havoc on my long natural nails. The alcohol in the product does do its job well however, this lotion quickly dries and will not be greasy or leave an oily transfer onto your phone or clothes upon touching. If anything, the product leaves a slight powdery residue, which is admirable in a lotion for the daytime. Another nice part about this lotion is that it is fragrance free- which lends itself well to scent-free working environments. The product is not THAT moisturizing unfortunately and left me wandering back to my usual hand lotion- which better supported my long nails. I would not personally buy this product myself, even if it was on sale for my needs, but the quality of the product is good and may better support people with other demands from their hand lotions. -

I bought this product to lighten the dark brown, thick hair on my pale arms. These hairs are very visible, so when it came to wearing a sleeveless dress for my Grad, I wanted to lighten these hairs into a light blonde. The product was easy to use and pretty straightforward; although I needed multiple full-length applications. The product worked amazingly well and it did give me the confidence I desired from lightening my arm hair. I even used some of the leftover product I had for fun highlights in my bangs! HOWEVER, the product was extremely uncomfortable for my sensitive skin. It kinda itched and burned and felt like little mites were crawling up and down the areas to which it was applied. I would not purchase this again as the time and aggravation that it took to apply this product was not worth the temporary (maybe 2 weeks) of lightening that I got out of it- not to mention the headaches from the smell. -
