DSE Albolene Moisturizing Cleanser, Unscented, 12 Fluid Ounce

I've used this product for many years. In the early years, I paid less than five dollars a jar.Not too many stores carried it. For awhile, Walmart in some stores had it on the shelves.Overall, the price began rising and rising, forcing many stores even Walmart not to carry it.The public's loss.I've been perusing amazon's products for a couple of years now.Not until very recently did I see AlBOLENE being marketed on amazon,but the price was/is outrageously high for any one who doesn't have adecent income.I'm long retired,disabled and am not living high on the hog. Yet even the price,though very high,didn't stop me from buying this, most wonderful facial creamI've ever experienced.It removes anything that might adhere to facial skin, even makeup. Its so very Gentle.You don't need to use much. A tiny bit of Albolene goes a long way.My skin has always been described as: baby skin. I have very smooth,soft and sensitive skin. Redheads do have sensitive skin.I need to stay out of the sun particularly since I've had skin cancer 3 times.Since I couldn't purchase Albolene anywhere until now, I resorted to usingother creams, none of which could compete with Albolene. My skin alwaysfelt dry with these other creams. Now I'm using Albolene again, my skin feelswonderful. Not dry. Alive!I have to learn to use it sparingly becauseof its cost and a little bit does go along ways.Rev Pat

I bought this Albolene after hearing about it on Steve Harvy. His wife recommended it for a waterless makeup remover. She explained that it melts to the touch, you apply it like lotion, it removes your makeup, and you tissue it off.I wasn't expecting it to be so much like Vaseline in it's consistency but I can see why she was saying it's such a nice moisturizer (it doesn't need to be removed with water or anything). I love that the ingredient list is short and paraben free.Come to find out, it's also an excellent hot cream. You can slather a thin coat on, wrap with saran wrap or other plastic (less clean up this way), then put an exercise belt over it. You'll be a sweat house, lol! Here's one I'd recommend, if you're interested, EzyFit Adjustable Waist Trimmer Belt - Stomach Body Wrap & Back Lumbar Support -Trim Curves, Strengthen Tummy Abs, Improve Posture, Belly Fat Burning 8 Inch Wide BeltI'm rating it 5 stars because it serves it's purpose well and doesn't irritate my sensitive skin. I found that for under $13, this 12 oz jar, is the best value I could find online. Since it's primarily mineral oil, I think it's a bit overpriced but you do get a big jar and it's very moisturizing. Highly recommended. Smile. Hope this is helpful!

My mom taught me to use Cold Cream to remove makeup but as an adult I've pretty much just used soap and water. I recently decided I wanted to use something gentler but I found out that Pond's Original Cold Cream got bought out and now uses a different formula. I thought I'd try something new so I found this Albolene stuff on Amazon. I was pretty surprised when I first opened it and realized it basically looks exactly like vaseline. I was really worried that I would break out after using it.When I used mascara or eyesliner, I used to have to really wipe and irritate my eyes to take off all the makeup at the end of the day. Now, I wipe this stuff over and under my eyes where I need to remove makeup, then gently wipe away with toilet tissue. It immediately takes off the makeup. I haven't had any trouble with breaking out after using this for a little over a month. However, the skin around my eyes looks and feels a lot more soft and supple. I can't think of a con for this product and I highly recommend it if you're looking for a gentle, moisturizing way to remove makeup.

This is an interesting product with multi-faceted uses. I bought it because a famous movie star commented that she uses it every few days to help keep moisture in her skin. When I read up on it, I saw that it helps you to sweat during a workout. I had stopped sweating, so that interested me. It does both, moisturizes skin and helps you sweat. It is greasy. So use it when you plan on not getting it on anything.
