Colonial Dames Concentrated Vitamin E Moisturizing Cream 28,000 I.U. for Hydrating & Moisturizing Chapped Dry Skin & Fine Lines.

I’ve been using this face cream for 45 years! I happened to discover it when I had gotten a massage at a Lake Tahoe casino hotel. Somebody had left it on the counter of the dressing room, and I tried it. I thought it would make a good night cream, so I made note of it and bought a jar. I’ve been using it every night since. It has a pleasant scent, is not oily or greasy feeling. It dries quickly, but I feel the lasting moisturizing effects after it has dried.

I needed this because my skin drinks up moisturizer quickly and is prone to flaking. This calmed my skin down immediately and made it smoother. It's nourishing for the eye area and great for the neck. It is a heavy moisturizer and can make your skin tacky to the touch, so less is more in this case. It can make you feel like your skin is being covered in grease, but this can be remedied with gentle and modest application. It does have an odd scent (much like aged clothing), but it is not oppressive or offensive. I did not object to it at all.

This works so good I'm so happy. It is so nourishing. I usually use ‘Ponds’ at night but this is even better. I use it on my neck, my forehead, all over my face and it leaves my skin so smooth and the next day it is still working 🌞I'm really, really happy with this, it's an excellent product and I know it's going to help my face. I know it also is helping me with the prevention of wrinkles. Plus it is a great price, you get a lot of product and delivery was great. You will not be disappointed!!!

I live in a very dry, desert environment and I'm always looking for a good moisturizer, so I was pretty excited to try this product, especially after reading some of the product reviews.I do like some things about it. It's thick, feels smooth, and it does moisturize pretty well. I have sensitive skin, and had no negative reaction to it, so that's a plus. The fragrance is meh, but that's ok.What I don't like is that it doesn't really absorb well. It kind of just sits on my skin and doesn't seem to really absorb. I end up with a bit of residue that I have to wipe off.

I have used Colonial Dames for years. I love it because it is not greasy and absorbs into your skin. You can apply makeup immediately after using it. It keeps my skin looking younger. I have tried others and wont use anything else now.

I've found this cream before in stores but couldn't this time. Amazon to the rescue. I needed it for a DIY cream recipe. It's one I got from the internet and wanted to try. This cream is rich and loaded with vitamin E which is great for your skin, especially any scarring. The smell is stronger than normal body lotions but I knew that already. It's so rich and moisturizing. This formula was for anywhere you need it including your face. It as follows: (written by a doctor) 6 ounces of any petroleum jelly, 16 ounces of Johnsons Baby Lotion, 4 ounces of vitamin E cream. You put in a bowl or 6 cup glass measuring cup and blend/whip it together very well. Put it back into your same containers or use new ones. It's very thick and luxurious giving immediate moisture to soothe dry skin.

Love this product!! My mother introduced me to this years ago when it was available at Rite Aid. Now I can only find it on Amazon. I get many compliments on my complexion. I'm 54 yrs old and most think I'm in my early 40s. One of the things that I love about it is that you can use it around your eyes. I have combination skin (T-zone) and I can apply this as needed, light or heavy pending on the season and the dryness of my skin. For those claiming it's too greasy, you're applying too heavily. Apply a small dab on each cheek, forehead, chin and neck. Moisten the tips of your fingers with water and spread evenly. Add more or less product to your liking. I use more in the fall/winter. Also, I have a very strong sense of smell and this is VERY mild!! I don't even smell anything once applied.

I bought this because of the great reviews and was looking for a nice face lotion. Apparently Im allergic bc the two times I applied it, my face tingled for almost 2 hours and turned splotchy red even. Im sure this is a great product if you dont have sensitive skin which I guess I have now that Im 42.
