AmLactinIntensive Healing Body Cream, 12 oz Tub, 2-in-1 Exfoliator and Moisturizer for Dry Skin with 15% Lactic Acid and Ceramides for 24-Hour Moisturization

As many people have commented the smell is not the best. It’s not too offensive once the product is absorbed unto the skin but it has an undertone of ammonia and slightly expired milk. If you put a scented lotion on top of it though it’s very easy to mask the smell.This product however leaves my skin BABY SOFT!!!!! It’s helped a lot with my KP, hyperpigmentation, and skin texture issues as well.It doesn’t give as drastic results of as something like a glycolic acid lotion but you can use it almost everyday without worrying as much about irritation.If you can get past the smell this product is absolutely worth your money! I just wouldn’t wear this with the assumption that you’re going to swoon people with the way you smell after putting it on.

My dermatologist recommended this product for my dry skin, and it has worked well for me. As others have mentioned, it does have a slight unpleasant scent at first, but it fades quickly. Personally, the smell doesn’t bother me, and it’s a minor tradeoff for the hydration and relief it provides.

The skin on my lower legs is very dry and flaky in the winter. This moisturizer works really well with keeping the skin from cracking and becoming sore. There is a slight weird smell but it isn’t strong and fades away. I would purchase again.

Summary: Keeps my feet perfectly smooth (along with other products), the smell is bad but improved in my second jar. The cream is a wonderful thick, moisturizing consistency and the label sticker on the jar removes cleanly and easily.Before this product I had dry feet that were mildly cracked and needed constant upkeep to be just okay. My feet would often scratch my skin in bed at night. I'm a barefoot/sandals person when the environment is appropriate so keeping my feet looking smooth is high priory in my grooming routine. I have always applied body creams from head to toe daily but even that plus heavy duty foot stones, scrapers, electric devices, pedicures, chemical peels, kerasol, urea cream, etc the dryness would always come back.I tried the babyfoot chemical peel and that makes my feet perfect but only temporarily and with a lot of time, hassle and money. I wanted my feet to stay PERFECTLY SMOOTH with MINIMAL EFFORT.In an attempt to prolong the results of babyfoot peel I purchased AmLactin and my feet have been perfect ever since. I have NEVER had to do any scrubbing or soaking to keep my feet smooth in the past 8 months. At first, I had some dead skin on my heel that peeled off after a few days of using the cream and since then I haven't had any big dead skin patches. When I do it's because I have skipped a few nights of application or I’ve done a lot of walking.To clarify, this cream works for me in conjunction with other products.- I started off with a baby foot chemical peel- a few nights a week I use the Freeman Flirty Feet instant foot peel spray (or whenever I remember/notice any dead skin buildup.)- I use AmLactin 5-7 nights a week. Usually with socks.Your results may vary depending on the initial condition of your feet and your routine.Notes on the smell:I first purchased this about 8 months ago and the jar had the ammonia smell plus that strong syrupy smell, it was not great. I almost switched to a different brand when I ran out but I didn’t want to risk the results. I just opened my new jar and the syrup smell is gone! At first sniff you can’t smell anything but once I rubbed it in I noticed the light ammonia smell on my hands. But it’s no big deal and this is a massive improvement. And I noticed my feet tingling after applying my new jar so I wonder if the effectiveness is different.

I've always had chicken skin/strawberry skin where it's scaly and has cracks. I bought this looking for a solution. I've been using for a few months now right after I get out of the shower and it transformed my skin! My legs have never been so smooth to the touch and the bumps are gone! It is lightweight and does not have a smell! I was using coconut oil prior and it has worked so much better than that!

This lotion is rather thick with a little going a long way. I would say it works like a miracle but it's science. My hands started to heal with the 1st use, weeks later, my hands are almost healed. My job dries my hands out, they were rough, scaly and cracked. I use this twice a day (most of the time) and put clean socks on my feet after applying the lotion. My feet are soft and I've had chunks of dried skin fall off without bleeding.

2 things that I love are keeping my skin soft and smelling good. Amlactin is great for both now because this new formula has no smell at all! Keeps my skin and feet baby soft. Feels velvety and there’s no greasy feeling once applied. Love it & will buy again. Love that it’s HSA eligibile too.

Purchased this at the recommendation of a good friend after I had knee surgery. It is very thick and moisturizing but smells TERRIBLE! I had read other reviews where the scent was mentioned, but had hoped for the best. And while it works, the scent just doesn’t dissipate. I always have to wash my hands multiple times and even when it’s only on my leg, I can still smell it. Some people have compared to maple syrup, I think it smells like a bad chocolate and let me tell you, I absolutely love chocolate but this is too much. I think I’m going to return it. I don’t like leaving negative reviews but It’s sitting on my nightstand and every time I think of putting it on again, the smell dissuades me. I want to say I’ve used it about six times and it hasn’t gotten better. Very disappointed.
