Comfortable and Moisturizing

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This lotion is comfortable, moisturizing, non-greasy, silky and smooth. The bottle makes controlling the amount of lotion you get out easy. The cocoa scent is strong but not overwhelming. The included Vaseline jelly ingredient helps the moisturizing to stick around for a long time to stop the need to reapply often.

But spray but in the lotion form.

I normally use the Almond Smooth or Nourishing Moisture lotions when using the Vasoline Intensive Care Lotion. I haven’t m gotten the Cocoa Radiant one in years, until now. It was pretty obvious something was different when I did a sniff test in the store, but I figured maybe it would be different once I got it actually on my skin. So when o got home and tried it, it became EXTREMELY clear something was VERY different. I remember the vivid cocoa smell from when I tried it awhile back, now nothing about it smells like cocoa or anything remotely similar. This is literally bug stray in a lotion. The citronella is OVERWHELMING and after reading the ingredients (which are much more chemically than previous formulas), Hydroxycitronellal was in it. And after doing some light research on this chemical, I came to the conclusion that the bad effects it potentially can have on our skin and bodies heavily outweigh the good it does. And after reading about a few of the other ingredients, it’s evident that the “bad ingredients” they want to appear to have done away with are in a sense still presence just in different forms. For instance, Limonene molecules can react with the air and create formaldehyde. And not to even mention the Ingredients in this lotion that are extremely toxic to dogs, geraniol, linalool, etc. My dogs is always around me, always licking me, and not only can these ingredients make them sickly, it can severely damage their major organs. I understand many of these ingredients are in safe moderations in the formula and they do have beneficial properties in regards to the lotions and what it’s meant to do and what not. But this one has really freaked me out. And I LOVE Vaseline products and I have been using them loyally my entire life but this Cocoa Radiant lotion and the rabbit hole I went down on the new ingredients (new and old) are making me want to never put this stuff on my skin again.. I know if I started researching all my other lotions and body care products I’d be freaked out about many other brands as well, but Vasoline is one of my top favorites and one I’ve grown up on and swore by my whole life. But anywho, to sum it all up, the Cocoa Radiant Intensive Care Lotion is citronella scented not cocoa, so if you want to literally smell like actual bug spray repellent than this is the lotion for you. And research the ingredients you’re putting onto your skin, people. It’s scary. I’ve never been the person to really care about ingredients like that but after everything I read tonight I am definitely going to start paying a little more attention. VASOLINE, I love you, guys. I really do. But this ain’t it.

New Formula?

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Honestly, it's been a while since I used the Vaseline brand Cocoa Body lotion. The amazing scent is exactly as I remember. I do love the new pump- very modern. I am not a fan of the actual formula though. It is very watery and not as thick as I remember. It is not even as thick as the regular store brand cocoa butter lotion I normally use. Because of the more watery texture I don't feel like it moisturized well or even lasted overnight. By morning my skin was craving moisture once again.

Silky and radiant skin glow!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Vaseline cocoa radiant cream for dry skin is amazing. I love that it gives a hint of glow to your skin and doesn’t leave your skin feeling sticky. I also like the scent of it as well. This lotion leaves your skin glowing all day long.

Fragrance is Needs to be Reformulated

I recently brought this product from a local pharmacy store. The scent has a medical-type odor when I open the manufacture's container and lingers all day when applied on the body. I'm to the point I can not use the lotion regardless of the benefits of the product. If the product was reformulated to be either scent free or have a a pleasant cocoa butter fragrance then this lotion would be a winner!!!

Nice Product

The Cocoa Radiant lotion goes on nice and easy. I don't have to work it in to my skin and it is not greasy. I knocked off one star because the only thing that I believe needs improving is the pump.When there is less than a third of lotion in the container, it is almost impossible to completely finish the lotion in the container just by using the pump. You would have to get a pliers to unscrew the cap for the pump and then invert and shake the container to get at the rest of the lotion.

Mixed Feelings: A Fragrance Experience

The initial scent of this product is very off-putting, reminiscent of cheap nylon with an overpowering hint of artificial chemicals. Unfortunately, this unpleasant smell lingers on the body for a long time. While the cream itself absorbs well and leaves no residue, the lasting scent is a significant drawback due to its cheap and synthetic odor.

Great except the Dispenser.

The lotion is wonderful but the double sided pump is terrible. Please change the dispenser. So many times I reach in the cabinet under my sink and try to pump some lotion into my hand, and it squirts out the other end all over other items. Because I can’t tell which end will squirt. That double end has got to be changed please. We don’t all have perfect eyesight. Once I nearly sorted it in my child’s eye as he stood counter height and it was aimed backwards. Just one squirt nozzle on one side only, please please. I would give 5 stars but for the double sided nozzle.

Just got this in the new packaging and smells BAD

I don’t know if we just got a dud but my roommate and I have been using this for years and although we heard about the reformulation, this was our first time buying a bottle with the new packaging. I loved the smell of this lotion, it usually blends so nicely into the skin and just leaves a hint of sweetness and warmth. This morning I just used the new bottle for the first time and the smell made me want to vomit, I felt like I had just walked into a bottle depot? Like rotting fruit smell instead of the gorgeous scent it used to have. I thought maybe it would mellow out after an hour or so but the smell just clung and didn’t go away. I’ll be keeping my eyes open for the old packaging but if this is the new formula, I will not be putting this on my body. :(

Vaseline lid

So, I purchased vaseline intensive care cocoa radiant and I actually love the product. However, I will NOT buy it again because of the lid! Who came up with this stupid design? I have reached down to pump some in to my hand and watched it drop out of the other side so many times that I want to scream! Why would they ever make both sides look the same?!!
