Aveeno Daily Moisturising Lotion :
4.51 out of 5 based on 695 reviews.

AVEENO® Daily Moisturising Lotion works hard to transform sensitive dry skin into soft, smooth healthy looking skin with lasting moisturising benefits.

Relieve and protect dry skin with this fragrance-free, non-greasy lotion containing natural colloidal oatmeal. Clinically proven to moisturise skin for a full 24 hours, the formula also contains rich emollients to keep skin feeling hydrated and healthy for longer.

The natural properties of colloidal oatmeal (oatmeal that is milled to an ultra fine powder) are known for their ability to hold in moisture and relieve dry, sensitive skin. AVEENO® uses the whole oat kernel finely ground to retain the value of its entire composition. Natural proteins form a protective barrier from external elements locking in moisture for healthy, soft, hydrated skin. Used regularly, the lotion will provide relief from chapping and scaling associated with extra dry skin. Dermatologist tested and suitable for sensitive skin.

AVEENO® products can be found in all major supermarkets, pharmacies and specialty stores across the country.

RRP 354ml- $12.99 225ml- $9.99

In the Aveeno Daily Moisturising Lotion Product Review, we sent mums a full size 354mL Aveeno Daily Moisturising Lotion as well as samples to share with their mum friends.

At Mouths of Mums we believe there’s no better way to review a product than to use it more than once, so we asked mums to use the Aveeno Daily Moisturising Lotion daily for 14 days and provide us with their Aveeno lotion reviews.

  • Recommended to a friend

    Feeling quite pleased today as I was able to recommend Aveeno Moisturising lotion to a friend with itchy and irritated skin. She has dry, flaky and red skin and has tried several different moisturising lotions and even lotions from the dermatologist. As she is rather desperate she is prepared to give Aveeno a go; hoping it works for her.

  • Still using Aveeno!

    I tried Aveeno Daily Moisturising Lotion due to a problem with itchy skin back in the month of December. My skin has continued to improve and has calmed the itching and irritation. Aveeno has become a part of my daily routine. I am happy with the price of this product and will continue to use it; forever! :) 5 stars!

  • Highly recommended

    I’m very fussy when it comes to moisturises as I hate anything that leaves you feeling greasy, however this is amazing. Once you rub it into your skin it just leaves your skin feeling soft and used regularly this keeps dry skin away. I have been using this on my feet then putting socks on when I go to bed and the dryness is kept away during the warmer months

  • Great Moisturiser.I'm Hooked!

    After reading all the great MoM reviews I decide to buy the AVEENO Daily Moisturiser & I was lucky enough to find it on special at Priceline. This cold winter & use of more artificial heating has left my skin dry ,flaky & rough. Well AVEENO has certainly lived up to its claim of producing healthy, soft & hydrated skin in my eyes. It’s non greasy formula just drank into my skin & left it smooth & supple. Even my husband commented on how silky & soft my skin was. Its fragrance wasn’t over powering & I felt it didn’t compete with my perfume’s fragrance

  • wonderful

    I am a huge fan of all Aveeni products. We use the baby bath for our daughter, shower gel and moisturiser for the adults.

    There are no harsh chemicals, have a wonderful fresh aroma and leave your skin feeling so soft, but not oily or greasy.

    Highly recommend Aveeno to all mummies.

  • Freebie

    I received a free sample of this a few weeks ago, and only just got around to using it- LOVED it.
    It was easily absorbed, and did not leave that greasy feeling some other ones do. The sample I got was in a little tear pack, which was a little hard to use, but the pump packs look far easier. Mine was value for money as it was free, but I have checked the prices out and it seems reasonable

  • Easily Applies and you notice the difference

    I really love using this cream. It is light and applies easily. It isn’t oily, gluggy or thick and rubs in very easily. At first I didn’t think it would be as effective as it absorbed so easily but it is great. I always feel refreshed and the smell is light and nice (not over perfumed). Would recommend to everyone (men too, my husband got sunburnt and it really helped get the moisture back into his skin).

  • Nice and creamy

    I like a good, rich cream that I can feel is doing its job and this was just that. I’m not interested in pretty smelly creams that do nothing. This cream I use every night after a shower and my legs always feel lovely and smooth. I also have a travel size for my kids after swimming lessons so the chlorine doesn’t dry out their sensitive skin

  • Works well on any skin type

    I love using this moisuriser all over my body. Whether it’s on my lips or on dry spots it is gentle enough to use all over. I have combination skin and works really well to hydrate my dry spots and doesn’t leave my oily skin greasy or cause breakouts. It absorbs into the skin straight away and doesn’t leave an oily feeling and is the perfect balance of matte. Works well when used under foundation or to help lengthen the time of a tan.

  • Deeply moisturising, highly absorbent

    I trialled a sample size of this and found it to be deeply moisturising and easily absorbed into my skin. It was easy to apply and wasn’t greasy and left my skin feeling soft and smooth. It doesn’t have a strong scent so didn’t overpower my perfume. Would like to try a larger bottle so I can try for a longer time. Highly recommend!

  • Economical long lasting moisturiser

    I have started using Aveeno about a month ago, our local pharmacy gave me a pack with little bottles of cleanser and moisturiser in them, I think that they may have had them left over from a promotion!!! I tried them and they were nice, since then I have continued to use the moisturising lotion, I actually have been using it on my face as it is very dry, it does not leave it greasy and I find that it actually is working for me and my skin is glowing, this may be that I am also cleansing and toning as well so probably taking more care than I normally would, but I also use a small amount on my arms as I have been blessed with thin papery skin, as is my mother and grandmother, it looks like I am 80, but I have been using the lotion on my arms and hands twice a day and there is a noticeable difference, I like the fragrance, the price if good so I can use a reasonable amount and not feel guilty, and it is working, I hope that it continues, as I will keep using it if my skin keeps improving or even if it stays as It is as it is not getting worse which is what it was doing. good products Try the cleanser and toners as well, they are great.

  • A Lovely Lotion

    Aveeno Daily Moisturising Lotion is a lovely lotion to use on your skin. A great product and at very reasonable price, it delivers excellent value and is comparable to other moisturisers at big brand prices. It feels nice and light, absorbing easily into my skin. I have no hesitation is buying this product whatsoever.

  • Great results

    Aveeno Daily Moisturising Lotion leaves my skin feeling wonderfully smooth. It is non greasy absorbing beautifully into my skin. There is a faint fragrance but, it is very mild and rarely ever noticeable. Aveeno Daily Moisturising Lotion is very reasonably priced, delivering higher than expected results. I have no problem in recommending Aveeno Daily Moisturising Lotion to others.

  • The only moisturiser i now use!

    I was given the Aveeno Daily Moisturising Lotion by a friend as my daughter was born 3 months premature and was in the NICU. The skin on my hands and arms were so dry from the constant washing needed each time you walk into the ward. The great thing about Aveeno was that it absorbed quickly into my skin and didn’t leave my skin feeling oily. It would last even through the constant washing and didn’t have a strong scent which was great. This is now my moisturiser of choice and I also use the Aveeno body washes too.

  • Fave, fave, fave

    I can’t rave about this product more! For a family with some kids with sensitive skin, others with super dry skin, others who would rather die than apply moisturiser this product is practically a holy grail! It lasts a while – if the youngest doesn’t decide to paint the bathroom tiles with it :P The smell is clean, fresh and not overwhelmingly perfumed like a lot of moisturisers. A daily necessity in our house, we highly recommend =)

  • Great product to use for a great price

    I have only started using the Aveeno daily moisturising cream and every time I apply it, my skin feels so nice and smooth. My skin is normally really dry but since using this product my skin has been feeling great. It’s great for your whole body especially if u apply it once you’ve shaved your legs. It’s also a great price too, especially for mums on a budget. I would recommend this to all mums that’s want there skin to feel nice and smooth and who don’t want to pay a fortune for skin products.

  • love the moisture, not the smell

    I love how this works, it makes my hands particularly really soft but I found it smells like baby powder! Won’t stop me using it but not my favorite…
    There are others that are moisturizing that have a great smell, some that smell good but dry you out, this one is sort of in between as the moisturising is just so good, and the smell not THAT big an issue.

  • Love it! Trust it!

    I wasn’t part of this review, but I use this EVERYDAY. I was put onto it by a pharmacist who knew I was suffering from mild psoriasis. He quickly recommended this product as it’s free from fragrances and nasties that can effect sensitive skin and exacerbate skin conditions. What a difference! I won’t use anything else. It’s not greasy and moisturises all day long. No need to reapply. I use it on my face also every day. It’s great!

I fondly remember slow, summer afternoons with family and friends gathered around a table of delicious finger-food during my childhood – the adults chatting and laughing, the kids pretending they understood the jokes. My parents had continued their Mediterranean traditions long after settling in Australia – and the simple joy of an effortlessly elegant gathering was one of my favourites.

What I don’t remember is my parents ever being stressed about the gatherings. It all just seemed to ‘come together’. Ah, how times have changed!

There’s something about the Italian style of entertaining that’s still so alluring in our fast-paced family lives. The idea of La Dolce Vita: a sweet life surrounded by family, friends, food and minimal fuss. Which is why we’ve enlisted the help of the entertaining experts at Sandhurst to share easy tips for elegant, memorable summer get-togethers.

We also asked our community of mums to share their tried and true, easy summer entertaining ideas, and we can’t wait to share them with you!

Euro-Inspired Entertaining

Sandhurst

Before we dive into the delicious world of sumptuous, simple summer entertaining, it helps to know a little about the inspiration behind our guide. And that’s the concept of Italian entertaining – where time is taken to lovingly grow ingredients, before enjoying them with those you love.

Established in 1988, Sandhurst was born from the time-honoured traditions of generations of the family behind the brand – a proud Italian Australian family passionate about quality produce sourced from world’s best growers.

At the helm of Sandhurst are brothers Mimmo and Ray Lubrano, who live and breathe the impeccable ingredients that become the centrepiece of so many gatherings in Australian family homes.

“Tradition is what we stand for. We’re custodians of Italian values,” explained Mimmo. “When we go to Italy we see it in our grandparents, our parents came from Italy in the 50s. The tradition is a set of values: honesty, teamwork, participation, family – all the things you would associate with Italian family are the values.”

And it’s these beautiful values that make summer gatherings in Australia an extension of the European table.

Easy Summer Entertaining Starts With … Time Saving Secrets!

Sandhurst

A sweet summer of entertaining doesn’t need to be stressful. In fact, it shouldn’t be. It’s a chance to spend time with loved ones. To press pause on life and make memories. And it can be simple! So here are some really easy tips for making your home the place where everyone wants to gather this summer.

Create An Entertaining Kit

Whether it’s pre-planned or you’ve had friends or family drop-in, having a few things ready to go immediately melts away any stress. Here are some things to include in a summer entertaining kit:

  • A red table cloth: It instantly says festive!
  • Some platters and serving dishes
  • Candles
  • Some quality antipasto ingredients that simply need to be decanted and enjoyed!

Many Hands Make Light Work

As mums, we tend to be our own worst enemy when it comes to delegating tasks. But remember, a summer of entertaining is about creating memories – not perfection. So let the kids help, and accept offers from your guests who’d like to bring something along to share.

“It can be overwhelming, so just delegate, and prepare. I do one dish prep per day and pop them in the freezer. Then they just need to be heated up. Let the kids do the decorating for you – plus keeps them busy!” – MoM Member Kirsty

Decorate With Happiness

There’s no need to pull out your finest crystal to pull off an elegant get together. Take a look around your home and garden to see what will bring your table to life. A bowl of lemons is a gorgeous addition, as is a bunch of gum leaves. Keep it simple and understated.

Sandhurst

Finger Food For The Win

Nothing says simple summer elegance more than a charcuterie board (or three!). When my friends and our families get together, it’s our go-to – every family is asked to ‘bring a board’. Some do savoury and some sweet, so we’re covered for a long afternoon of catching up.

“Food wise, I keep it simple by doing cold deli meats, cheeses, fresh fruits and veggies.” – MoM Member

But just because boards are easy to put together, doesn’t mean they can’t ooze elegance. And that comes down to including quality ingredients. Choosing Sandhurst products is the easiest way to guarantee the highest quality ends up on your table. We love the premise behind the brand: from our family to yours – it invokes that nostalgic feeling of shared stories, history, gatherings and family.

How To Put Together A Charcuterie Board 

Sandhurst article image

There are no right or wrong ways to create a charcuterie board, but to ensure a balance of textures and flavours try to include:

La Dolce Vita!

A summer of sophisticated entertaining doesn’t have to be hours and hours of work. We don’t want it to be! By grabbing some beautiful ingredients to fill your pantry next time you’re shopping, you’ll know that at a moment’s notice you’ll have everything you need for a Euro-inspired gathering. No fuss, but plenty of substance and style!

  • I have been a purchaser of Sandhurst goods ever since they first appeared on supermarket shelves and still buy it to this day. The Sandhurst brand is the best without a doubt. This year I have not been able to find the Sandhurst cheese stuffed baby capsicums anywhere. I have tried to get on the Sandhurst site, but no luck with what they make. Help – these are such a wonderful addition to a salad.

  • I Love a good charcuterie board. I Love all the different options all on the one board. I love to do a chocolate board when we have guests over, it’s a fun way to do dessert after dinner. The kids love seeing everything layed out so they can pick and choose.

  • This is great for the grandchildren they love them as they use them as finger food and make up their own meal and use plenty of ingredients including meat and cheese on the dips and crackers. We keep it simple with the Sandhurst’s products as it is a meal in every jar and the kids love them.

  • This looks like the perfect relaxed way to have a picnic! I am loving the idea of this! Just bring along lots of fillings and plenty of cheeses and breads and of course a little alcohol and you’re all set. This sounds like the perfect way to catch up with friends!

  • Charcuterie boards are the absolute best! We do these so often in the warmer months because there’s something for the whole family. People pick and choose what they like and there’s no complaints because there’s so many different options to choose from, everyone is happy. It’s such a simple stressful way to make dinner.

  • I absolutely adore finger food and this style of feeding people when we have family and friends at our home; or when we go out for a picnic, bbq or get together. These types of food are so easy to source and to buy and to prepare and to happily eat.


    • Yes I agree, finger foods are easy and yummie ! And you can assemble a healthy enough plate (certainly when you add salads, cheeses, nuts, fruits, boiled eggs, olives and rustic breads) that it can certainly can replace a meal (either lunch or dinner). Everyone happy and no hours of preparation in the kitchen :)



      • Also; the other bonus is less mess to clean up when cutlery is not needed. Finger food is the best for laid back and relaxed get togethers. There is always such a clam and relaxed feel to a finger food meal without the need for any fancy and stuffy table settings.

  • I absolutely adore an antipasto spread. There’s nothing better than having a colourful plate of charcuterie and antipasto shared with loved ones. I grew up with my Mum making the most lush, long table of nibblies on celebrations and it’s something that my siblings and I carry on today. It brings us all together.
