before and after [SEP] i actually had not intended on doing a before and after photograph but there was such a difference after i massaged this lotion into my hands that i wanted to show you how much of a difference it made with just one applicationnow i understand why this is used at hospitals it is amazingly effective as well as being allergen free steroid free fragrance free there is a little bit of a natural aroma of the ingredients but it is not offensive it smells like just about every other fragrance free product the big difference is that this one is way more effective than most other products of this type that i have tried this is one that makes me wish i had given the others lower ratings it is that goodnot high priced no splashy logos just an extremely effective lotion for extremely dry skin
