I have used this lotion for years as I have extremely sensitive skin and most lotions either give me hives, rashes, or just make me extremely itchy. I recently ran out and bought a new bottle and the smell is awful and within 10 minutes I am already covered in hives. If you are looking for the previously loved lotion, this is not it. I definitely won’t be recommending this to family and friends anymore nor will I be buying it again unless it goes back to the old formula.

I use this lotion after showering every night before I hit the bed. I love the non greasy formula that is typical of Aveeno but the lavender smell of this particular lotion is just dreamy. One pump is just enough for my hands and neck/ upper chest. I’m convinced that the smell makes me even more relaxed before bed.

I hate this lotion! I guess I should have smelled it before I purchased it. The smell is overpowering and nauseating. I put it on the first time and washed it off immediately. I keep trying to adjust to the smell, but it's just too much. I will be throwing the rest of the bottle away. You've been warned - the smell is obnoxious.

The new scent for the lotion and body wash is awful! I have scoured all the local stores for their last bottles of both the lotion and body wash so I am savoring the little bit I have while searching for a new brand. I am beyond disappointed. The new scent smells harsh and chemical like. WHY???? WHY DID YOU DO THIS???

I have very dry skin, and working in a restaurant requires washing my hands several times an hour, all day long. I went to buy a new lotion when the backs of my hands were actually BLEEDING, and this is what I came home with. I will never buy another kind. In just 2 days my hands went from cracked and bleeding all over to silky smooth. And the smell is FANTASTIC. So soothing, I just can't get over it. I sometimes use more than I need to just to smell it. And as a final point, I never write online reviews. NEVER. The excellence of this product compelled me to start. Thank you Aveeno for solving all of my skin problems and more!

I struggle with extremely sensitive skin and terrible dryness on account of my type 1 diabetes... This is the only thing I have found that my skin drinks up... My intense itching is a thing of the past. I use the baby products on my son and have since bought body wash, shampoo, and conditioner! THANK YOU AVEENO!

My four year old son suffered from severe eczema almost his whole life. I tried every doctor's suggestion as well as every "quack" remedy I could find and nothing made the slightest difference. Then a friend told me this lotion cleared up her daughter's eczema so I decided to try it. It was amazing! After just a few days the eczema was nearly gone. His skin is smooth again and he doesn't wake up crying and itching anymore! I know the product is not advertised to help eczema, but it sure helped my son! It also works great for me as a regular lotion. It is a nice consistency and is a great relief to my skin--I live in a very dry climate and it makes a huge difference.

I wrote because I read Jay's review (Redland). He wrote that he loves the smell. Couldn't agree more. A lot of men don't know it but lavender is used in most men's fragrances because men love the smell. I love the flower and I love anything with its scent. Plus the feel and effectiveness of Aveeno moisturizing is worth the money. It goes on without being oily and it works.

I see some people are complaining about the scent of the new version of both Aveeno stress relief body wash and the lotion with lavender scent. I agree that the scent for both products has changes. I prefer the old version better. However, I have to mention that the new scent of the lotion is not that bad, it's closer to old version. While the body wash smells like one Johnson's Baby wash with honey.

I wish I would have known they changed the scent I would have saved my money and purchased something else. The new formula is not as hydrating as the old Aveeno lotion with the purple pump. Very unfortunate as this was my favorite lotion, hopefully Aveeno listens to it's loyal customers " if it ain't broke don't fix it" should have just created a new line addressing sensitive skin issues and left a classic favorite as it was. This new formulation just leaves my skin feeling sticky.
