Hand and Body Lotion, Sweet Almond, 8 oz

This has the Sweet Almond smell I was looking for! The specific sweet, nutty, almost cherry-like smell comes from Benzaldehyde. Buying products online labeled “Almond”” or “Sweet Almond” are hit or miss when you’re looking for this smell. This one has it. On top of that, the ingredients are great, the texture is rich and creamy and absorbs well into the skin. Great for sensitive skin. In fact this was the only lotion I had that didn’t burn when I needed something for my sunburn. Even all the aloes available had water and alcohol… the first ingredient in this lotion listed was Aloe, no alcohol, so in desperation I thought what the heck. IT WAS SO SOOTHING!!! Even with a strong fragrance to it, it was so mild and it helped heal my skin. I was grateful to have had in on hand. If you like layering scents, and are looking for this type of almond scent, I use Pre De Provence Almond soap, and Cuccio’s Sweet Almond oil. Same type of smells with great ingredients.

Love this cream, also love that it isn't heavily perfumed! Just a light fragrance! Keeper

I had purchased this hand and body lotion for myself. It works well at nourishing your skin. One of my nieces asked me what I was wearing. I told her about the Sweet Almond hand and body lotion. She wanted to know where I bought it. She said it smells like Grandma did. The almond scent is special to our family because my mom always used almond flavoring in her Frosting recipe she made to decorate cakes with. When I found it on Amazon I had to buy it for my niece for her birthday. She loved it!

I remember how much I loved the almond scent in jergens lotion growing up. I feel that his product has much cleaner ingredients for our skin then others. It does the job of softening the skin especially after showering. Our skin is our largest organ in our body and it easily absorbs whatever ingredients we put on it, so I feel like I am making a healthy decision in using Desert Essence lotion.

When you first apply the lotion, it has a really strong scent, which I was a bit unsure of, but once the skin absorbs it, the smell becomes subtle and sweet. Its great! Feels good on the skin too. For some reason my knees were getting dry, and my old lotion wasn’t doing much, but this one seems to have helped with that.

Smells super duper! Smells a little like cherry too. It’s a nice soft scent though, i’ve gotten other almond scented lotions that simply don’t compare. And the price is good as well. I’d def buy again!!

I wanted to love this lotion that has a wonderful price but it didn’t happen. This sticky, viscous, gel- like lotion feels awful on your skin and smells like crayons for some bizarre reason. Definitely not almond. I quickly washed it off. Yuck.

Smells heavenly but it's not a rich hand lotion. Prob won't order again but may try their shampoo/cond that comes in this same scent.
