Jergens Extra Softening Cream Review

Following on from Laura’s review of Jergens Naturals, I’ll now let you know how I got on.

I’ve been trying the Jergens Extra Softening body moisturiser that contains shea butter. Apparently shea butter is the ingredient that revitalizes dry and rough skin. As my elbows are prime candidates for some extra softening TLC that’s where I’ve been applying the cream.

So what did I think? Well, a lovely fresh scent is nice to start with. Now body butters kind of make you think of a thick, heavy cream but this is much, much lighter – nothing like a body butter at all. It’s very light and feels slightly soothing as you rub it into your skin. I don’t use much but it is easily absorbed as you rub it over your skin. There’s no greasy feeling at all and it seems to work too! It does seem to calm and soften rough skin. I even tried it on my dry heel and I found it rather soothing.

Oh, I happened to notice that although it’s an American company, us Brits get the products that are actually made in the UK, so there’s no food miles equivalent.

You get the impression that this is a quality product, so well done to Jergens – I’ll be finishing off the tube!
