I feel so grown up with my face cream in a jar.

In the words of that Korean guy in Nicki Minaj's video...CHECK. IT. OUTTT!

I was cruising in Tescos. Having run out of my Vaseline Body face whatever cream a few days ago, I realised it was high time for another. And what would have been the point in not picking up this one? A jar was £4.04, but it was on offer for two jars for £4 (no, I don't understand it either). Anyway, I bought two jars.

I'm really, REALLY not keen on the smell - it smells a little like rancid baby powder (to me) and the scent hangs around for a while. Shame, because that's the only thing that ruined a really good product. I love the fact that this has an SPF in it because I can never be bothered with applying that seperately. It rubs in well and keeps my face hydrated all day (as promised) and best of all, IT COMES IN A JAR. WOO JARS.

The smell is gross though. Not sure if I'll repurchase it purely on that factor.

  1. Ooee, ooee. I like the smell of Johnson's usual stuff so I might like this. £4.04??? Crazy.

  2. I've always wanted to try this, although not quite this product. My grandmother used to use Johnson's baby cold cream, or baby cream (not lotion) in a jar on her face and she swore it's what made her face look much younger than she is. I'll have to keep an eye out for it!

  5. I didn't understand it either, Jaljen...

    If you try it, Jen, let us know!

    I know, Nicole. I find I'm smelling it less now I'm getting to the end of the jar, though - thank god.

    Destroyed your skin barrier??? Woah...
