Drugstore find: Jergens Soothing Aloe Relief

One of my favorite lotions back in high school was from Jergens. It was affordable, smelled great, and didn't feel sticky. It was such a staple then, but when I got more adventurous with products in college, I just sortof forgot about it, y'know? But when Jergens sent me their new lotion, I just remembered why I loved this back then.

After all these years, Jergens still is affordable, nice-smelling, and non-sticky. A new variant, the Jergens Soothing Aloe Relief, has a calming, clean aloe vera smell that doesn't overpower. So not fussy! It promises to be skin-cooling with that menthol ingredient, but don't worry, it doesn't feel minty. The slight cooling sensation lasts a couple of minutes while the lotion dries.

It feels moisturizing, of course. It also sinks in fast so you don't have to keep on blending and blending. I do find that you have to use a bit more than usual to get really good coverage, but it's just a minor observation.

Overall, great stuff! I would recommend the Jergens Soothing Aloe Relief to just about anyone who's looking for a cheap, easily available lotion that feels comfortable and smells good.
