I have a bottle of this stuff stashed everywhere. No really. I've got a bottle at work, a bottle at home and a bottle in the car...and lets face it, I have no life, so that's everywhere.
"Why??" I hear you scream? (ok well, maybe not scream) The fact of the matter is, I have a tonne of tattoos. When I get new ones, I get a small tub of Goo from my artist and then I am left to my own devices. He recommends Cocoa butter, which I do use too. I find that to be a little too greasy for me though.
Vaseline intensive care goop, however, isn't as greasy as you may imagine. Most other bottles of goop that I apply liberaly tend to stay quite wet and rub off on everything for hours after I slap it on whereas this lovely stuff is soaked up easily and any residue that is left soon dries enough to have the area make contact with other things without leaving a grease trail.
It won't dry completely, leaving a sort of waxy covering over the area (this is of course assuming your pouring the stuff on) so for keeping my mass amounts of tattoos in a nice moisturised state, this stuff is perfect.
If your using it in less crazy amounts, its sucked up by your skin, leaving it nice and soft.
The contents are pretty much the same colour as the bottle they come in. Not the blue bits.
The smell isn't too bad either. I thought it would be pretty odourless when I first got it, but it's not. It has a vaugly flowery smell to it but, in my oppinion, is a scent that goes well on both men and women. It won't leave you smelling like the opposite sex which, in my books, can only be a good thing!
I am also informed rather handily by the bottle that this creamy concoction comes with a "multi-vitamin complex". I find that to be a bit of an over statement. The vitamins it is classing as "multi" are a grand total of vitamin A and E. I want at least five before they start throwing "multi" around!!
As for price, it really depends where you go. Some places have offeres with double packs, other places will try to milk your money lovingly from your wallet. If you are a sensible shopper, this goopy goodness is actually quite cheap for a brand name. The bottles I stock up on are 200ml worth of tattoo healing joy.
One thing I have noticed about this stuff is that the design of the bottle will depend on the temperature on the second sunday after the birthday you got most drunk on. Every time i see it, it's different. Every bottle I HAVE is different and I bought them only weeks apart. Makes the stuff a bit hard to spot if you buy it regularly.
Over all this stuff is really great for helping out with dry skin. Nice and cheap, mostly, and it is for the whole body too, not just hands, so you can get more bang for your buck.
I find it is best used as instructed on the bottle... "Apply liberally all over your body". Oh how I giggled.
