Thoughts: I was actually excited to receive this product. I heard that children's moisturizer is a lot better than adults. It has less chemicals and works better on sensitive skin.
Here's a closer look at the opening.
Here's a closer look at the moisturizer on my hand.
Now for my overall opinion... First of all, there's a noticeable strong scent. It smells like coconut. I just sniffed the product and it smells like how it's applied. It's not my type of scent. It reminds me of tropical scent that is used on sun products. I'm not a fan of that scent. Even though I don't like the scent, thankfully it lasts for several minutes. If you like this type of scent, this is a good one. Secondly, the packaging is nice. It's small and cute. With that said, it's well-made and sturdy. It's made out of thick plastic. The lid is also sturdy. You can feel a tight seal, as well as, a clicking noise when you open and close the lid. I cannot see it open or break unless you are rough with the packaging. For this reason, it's travel-friendly. It's easy to throw in your purse and bag. Also, I love that it comes in a tube. It's sanitary-safe, as well as, you have full control of the quantity you squeeze. Third, the consistency is creamy and I would say it's medium. Some people might find the moisturizer on the thick side but for someone with dry skin, it's a good consistency. It will be great all year for myself. If you have normal to oily skin, it might be too thick especially for summer. With that said, it's easy to use. I just squeeze the product out of the packaging and massage onto the skin. Not only that, it absorbs quickly and leaves a slight shiny texture. It's not greasy, it's light-weight, and feels soft on the skin. Lastly, it's long lasting and keeps me hydrated. I only moisturize my body right after showering, and then I repeat after the next shower. If it keeps me hydrated in-between showers, it's a huge plus for me. My skin loves this product. Since it's good for the children, I think it will be great for adults as well. Going back to it smelling like coconut. Coconut has watery substance which is good when it comes to hydration. It makes sense with coconut water and why coconut products are good when it comes to hydrating. I'm glad I got to try this product. It's a good product but I cannot deal with the scent personally. It's just me.
