Fighting the Winter Itch

I know that the weather is still unseasonally (is this a real word?) warm but I am definitely feeling the effects of fall. The only thing I like about fall is heavy sweaters, pumpkin EVERYTHING, and the colors.  The colds, the allergies, and the dryness it brings could leave something to be desired.  Not only do I get bloody noses (poor Lucas lost a burp cloth the other day when it was the only thing in reach to stop the blood from dripping on both of us), but my skin also gets really dry in the winter.

So I was VERY excited the other day when I got my Vox Box from Influenster.  I had honestly forgotten that I joined the Vaseline campaign and I got a full bottle of their new Advanced Repair Intensive Care Lotion.

My grandma used Vaseline and so the sight of the bottle always brings back a nice memory.  This one is fragrance free so I don't have the smell to remember Grandma by, but it's good for work because I hate having heavy scents on me when working in the school.  It also came at the perfect time because lotion was on my to buy list.

According to the description, this lotion is clinically proven to heal very dry skin in 5 days.  I used it on my feet tonight because they were feeling dry and they already feel 100 times better.  The texture is nice and smooth and not greasy.. there is nothing worse than putting on lotion and then not being able to touch anything for 5 minutes afterwards.

If you are in the market for a new lotion for your dry skin, I definitely recommend this one!

Note:  I received these products complimentary from Influenster for testing purposes.  All opinions are my own.
