Works wonders
I absolutely loved it. This lotion blew my expectations. My hands have been really dry lately due to constant hand washing (because of covid), to the point of making my knuckles bleed. I applied this lotion about 3-4 times within 8 hours and my hands showed significant improvement. I definitely recommend this product and for 97 cents, why not!?

Why did Jergens change the formula ?
I read through some reviews and I'm happy to see I'm not the only experienced Jergen's lotion user to notice a change in effectiveness from the old to the new formula. I too have been a loyal Jergens lotion user for over 25 years now and when I bought the new ultra healing formula I noticed a difference. Hands went dry in about 5 minutes. I have to keep re-applying but this was not the case with the old formula. I appended a photo of the old vs the new. I read through the ingredients of the old, also appended and compared to the new.
I have now started searching for a lotion that works as Jergens used to. To Jergen's competitors... Copy the old formula and create your own "new" brand. Advertise it and watch how many consumers start using your product if Jergens won't go back to the old.
I presume the idea of "more applications" is best for sales but not if consumers search elsewhere.
P.S - I don't put much emphasis on reviews from consumers who never knew the old formula.
Here are the ingredients of the advertised new Ultra Healing vs Jergen's old Ultra Care formulas.
Ultra Healing : New
INGREDIENTS: WATER, GLYCERIN, CETEARYL ALCOHOL, PETROLATUM, STEARIC ACID, C12-15 ALKYL BENZOATE, ALUMINUM STARCH OCTENYLSUCCINATE, DIMETHICONE, LAURETH-3, CETEARETH-20, DMDM HYDANTOIN, ALLANTOIN, METHYLPARABEN, ARGININE, SODIUM HYDROXIDE, PROPYLPARABEN, CARBOMER, FRAGRANCE, PANTHENOL, PENTYLENE GLYCOL, LECITHIN, ALCOHOL, ASCORBYL PALMITATE, TOCOPHEROL.
Ultra Care: Old (see pic attached.)
Ingredients in old formula not listed in new formula. (see below).
LIQUIDUM, CETYL-PG, HYDROXYETHYL PALMITIMIDE, GLYCERYL DILAURATE, CYCLOPENTASILOXANE, MYTHYLPARABEN,
Sincerely,
Disappointed loyal Jergen's user.

4.00 out of 5 stars reviewVerified Purchaser12/28/2022Good moisturizer!I liked that this moisturizer really helps my dry skin! It feels very smooth and drys fast. I only wish the scent was nicer. It's not bad, but I personally prefer a sweeter scent. It's good for layering.angelad306

3.00 out of 5 stars reviewVerified Purchaser12/06/2022NOTHING SPECIALIt gets the job done, but that's about it. My didn't feel any more particularly moisturized than when I use my other Jergens lotions. I am also not a fan of the scent, it smells almost like a medicinal skin ointment to me (if that makes sense??). Overall, it's affordable and performs its function as a lotion but I wouldn't go out of my way to buy this again.Unknown

5.00 out of 5 stars reviewVerified Purchaser06/10/2021Great productI've been looking for a hand lotion that it lasts and is nourishing without feeling greasy or have that sort of weird feeling on your hands doesn't quite dry. This product works really well and a little goes a long way I like the fragrance the product overall. I would definitely recommend it's a great little bottle for in your car or your backpack doesn't take up too much space.Wendy

1.00 out of 5 stars reviewVerified Purchaser01/22/2021Clueless!The low rating is not because of the Jergens lotion, it's because of Wal-Mart's packaging error! I don't know what the lotion is like, because they sent me two lotions of a different brand, and I didn't get a chance to try this one. Better luck next time, I guess! Get it right Wal-Mart!Unknown

5.00 out of 5 stars reviewVerified Purchaser07/12/2020Great SkinCare Product For Aging SkinI have been using This lotion for on my body for months now. I had never thought to use it on my face for my wrinkle and skin cream- I'm sooo glad I did! I'm over 40, but especially after using Jergens Ultra Healing on my face, I've noticed plumper, smoother, softer skin and my eye wrinkles have diminished also! My face feels soft and even my skin tone evens out some after I apply it. I use it before I put on my makeup. I no longer use any night creams or eye cream, only Jergens Ultra Healing. People never believe me when I tell them I'm over 40- Ive told my friends, and ill tell you, TRY IT! You will be surprised- I dont know why you guys haven't started a skin regimen for wrinkles and improving skin texture..because out of everything I've used thats Expensive, Jergens works 10 times better!OverTheHill12
