Jergens Overnight Repair Nightly Restoring Moisturizer Review

We live in Chicago and winters can be quite harsh here. As a result, my husband has very dry, chapped, and cracked hands. I bought the Jergens Overnight Repair moisturizer, especially for him. It's hard to get him to take care of his skin because he doesn't like to use anything on his body except for soap. But his hands got to a point where he felt like he needed to do something. They were super dry, cracked, and started bleeding. He's been using it for a week now and we definitely saw some change. His hands look and feel smoother, and hydrated.

Jergens has a lot of moisturizers aimed at different needs of people and Overnight Repair was launched 3 years back for really damaged wintertime skin repair. They claim to repair a week's worth of damage in a night, and the product does seem to be working like they say.

The cream is a little thick but not as thick as body butter and neither as runny as lotion. Its consistency is somewhere in between. The pumping system works great. It glides on smoothly and sinks fast into the skin, leaving a hydrated look/feel. It is not greasy at all. And the scent is not overwhelming, it is a mild and pleasant smell.

The directions of use and claims are clearly given on the back of the bottle. Just apply it all over your body after your shower.

I'm no expert but the ingredients list looks good as far as I can tell and we have had no allergic reactions so far.

Get it if you like applying moisturizers to your body and are looking for some good hydration plus healing for your dry skin during winter. It does work is all I can say coz I've seen it work on my husband's dry and cracked hands. I think I'm gonna repurchase it once I finish this bottle. I have also used the Jergens shea butter moisturizer before and loved it. I have to say the brand does come out with some good ones.

Overall Rating: A+

Some Recent Regret Buys

In my opinion, it's not ethical blogging if we're only featuring the good and not talking about some bad products because let's face it, there are a lot of crappy products out there. And when we're not talking about them we're withholding important information and we're not being fair to our readers. In fact, it means we're being fairer to brands. It's fine if people want to earn some money through brand deals but it's really not worth it to become a sell-out. Some might say why bother writing about bad products, why not just let them be, but I want to put the word out there about bad products too because I want to help people like me save some money. Please note that when I say "bad products" it means "products that have not worked for me". However, these products might have worked very well for some others because each of us has different skin types and tolerance for products and it's totally OK. In the past few months, I t...

April 2012 Favorites and Regrets

I can't believe April has already come to an end. I can't say I'm sorry either because this means less rain, more blossoms, and summer in another month. So without further ado, I present to you this month's beauty and makeup favorites. As you can see there are quite a few things I've been liking this month. The list of all things beauty I've been loving/using frequently are: (in left to right order) Aussie Instant Freeze Hair Spray Extreme Hold : This product is just wow. The windy city can be brutal to hair especially when left open and this product is really a blessing. It gives a good hold without adding too much cast to the hair. You can build it up and get stronger hold if that is what you need. It's easy to use and smells great. It's not too expensive and comes in a huge bottle. Clairol Herbal Essences Hydralicious Reconditioning Conditioner : I love this conditioner and this is a product worth repurchasing. I only wish they would put it in ...

I Got Influenced and Wasted my Money on These 15 Hyped Products

Influencer marketing has been there forever but with more online social media platforms it has become even more crazier since the 2010s. This type of marketing trend has its good sides as we get to know about a lot of things that are introduced into the market while sitting at home. So there is no worry of missing out on anything that is good. But it is also sometimes misleading/misinforming which can not only make us waste money on worthless products but also mistrust influencers as a whole. This post is going to be only about beauty (skincare/haircare/makeup) products that I wasted my money on. It does not mean that I mistrust influencers or that I am not going to follow influencers anymore. I have also benefited in many ways from influencers so this is not a hateful post. I only want to convey through this post that it is important to use our own judgment and not blindly follow what somebody is recommending just because they seem likable, genuine, or convincing on camera....
