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

    Aveeno Daily Moisturising Lotion is a great product at a great price.
    It goes on lovely and smooth without feeling thick, glucky and heavy.
    The fragrance of Aveeno Daily Moisturising Lotion is light and not over powering.

  • 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 😛 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 using it!

    Aveeno Daily Moisturising Lotion is a lush moisturiser at a bargain price! My skin easily absorbs it, feeling lovely and smooth, not like other moisturisers which often feel heavy and seem to leave a greasy residue. This product is a great little find and I love using it on a regular basis.

  • 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!

Summer beach and pool days are core childhood memory creators, but getting the kids out the door, not so much! From wrestling wriggly toddlers into rashies to arguing with teens trying to dodge sunscreen and cramming half the house into the car, the exhaustion can kick in before we’ve even set foot on the sand!

But there are some very clever tips that will make even the most stressful summer days smooth sailing – and the Mouths of Mums community know them all! Which is why we asked our mums for their hints, hacks and tips – from sand removal to stress-free sunscreen application (we’re going to introduce you to the fabulous new Banana Boat SmartMist Sunscreen Sprays that will make your life so much easier). 

You’ll want to take note before you next hit the beach or pool!

Pack Smart, Not Big

Do you feel like you take waaayyy too much when you head to the beach or pool, and then you seem to forget a couple of key things that would have made life so much easier?

Our Mouths of Mums community swear by this fab list of essentials which should be in every mum’s beach kit, and

  • A plastic bag for wet towels and bathers
  • A dry bag for clothes
  • A bucket or basin to wash off sandy toys
  • A ‘clean zone’, sand-free blanket or mat for eating and changing
  • A pop-up tent for changing
  • Waterproof phone case
  • Talcum powder to get sticky, wet sand off little feet. Just pop it on and brush it off – it’s magic!
  • A hand-held car vac for quick sand cleanups!

“The amount of times my kids have gone home in wet chafing swimming costumes because they didn’t want anyone to see them changing is unbelievable! Our pop up tent has been life changing! We all drive home comfy and cosy! Lastly, a sand proof picnic blanket is so perfect for a sand reprieve! The sand literally falls right through them!” – MoM Member

Get Safety Sorted Before The Fun Starts

It’s pretty hard to get the kids’ attention once you’re at the beach or pool, so the safety talk should really start at home. Our mums recommend chatting to the kids about:

  • Swimming between the flags at the beach
  • Setting a meeting spot in case anyone gets separated
  • Sunscreen: Always apply sunscreen 20 minutes before heading outdoors. And set alarms to reapply every two hours throughout the day. Reapply immediately after swimming or using a towel. 

Applying sunscreen at the start of the day and regularly throughout is so important, but it usually causes the most arguments. Kids don’t want to stop, teens assure you they ‘did it already’.

That’s where Banana Boat’s new SmartMist™ Sunscreen Spray SPF50+ actually makes a difference. The iconic sunscreen brand has just launched its newest product, which turns sunscreen time into something simple and fun. It’s an easy and convenient way to tick off sun safety – which isn’t always easy when it comes to kids!

Why Banana Boat SmartMist Sunscreen Spray makes sunscreen easier

  • The Smart Control Spray gives you the choice of a short spray for tricky spots or a long spray for larger areas like those wiggly little legs, making application simple and convenient. It also sprays from any angle – just spray, rub in and you’re ready for playtime.
  • Clear, lightweight formula that absorbs fast and with no greasy feel.
  • SPF50+ broad spectrum UVA and UVB protection and 4-hour water resistant.
  • Kids SmartMist™ is mild and gentle for kid’s sensitive skin, fragrance free and contains Aloe and Vitamin E.
  • Sport SmartMist™ features high-performance Powerstay Technology™, designed to stay on through sweat and water.

Banana Boat SmartMist makes those important sunscreen stops much easier and effective and is perfect for active Aussie families this summer.

Prep & Time It Perfectly

There’s nothing worse than kids itching to get to the beach while you’re trying to remember everything you need to pack – it makes everyone frazzled. So get prepped early – even the night before. And time your departure to minimise the amount of time in the car (and the amount of times the kids ask ‘are we there yet?!’.

“Packing the car the night before, always a huge help getting the bucket, cabana, and bag of spare clothes/towels in the boot. We usually leave straight after breakfast to avoid heavy traffic as the beach is an hour away.” – MoM Member

Pack Smart Snacks

Snacks are a must, but it can be tricky to know what’s going to survive a hot, Aussie summer day – and what’s good for hungry tummies. Here’s what our mums recommend:

  • Chopped fruit
  • Crackers
  • Boiled eggs
  • Drink bottles that have been frozen overnight

“We have a few allergies/intolerances, so being prepared with food is helpful and saves us the search and some money. I pre-chop carrots, cucumber, apples, boiled egg, in a handy separating container, a packet of chips, dip, and bring water bottles. If it’s a longer day planned at the beach I’ll bring lunch too.” – MoM Member

A chaos-free beach day. Yes please!

You don’t need a military-style plan to enjoy a sunny day out. A beach trolley, some prep, and an easy sunscreen like SmartMist™ are enough to help things run calmly – or at least calm-ish!

New Banana Boat Sport SmartMist™ Sunscreen Spray SPF50+ 200ml and Banana Boat Kids SmartMist™ Sunscreen Spray SPF50+ 200ml (RRP $28.00) are available now at leading pharmacies, supermarkets and online retailers nationwide. 


Always read the label and follow the directions for use. Wear protective clothing, a hat and sunglasses in addition to sunscreen. Reapply frequently every 2 hours or more often when sweating and immediately after swimming or using a towel. Avoid prolonged high-risk sun exposure.

  • So happy to share the magic of baby powder after a messy day at the beach or park! It’s been a game changer for us.
    Not quite as elaborate as the pop up tent, but a large towel with a hood has been great to discretely change out of bathers! It’s my husband’s go to now haha

  • My biggest tip is to be very clear who’s watching the kids, especially when they’re in the water. Like, actually verbally hand over and make sure it’s acknowledged if you’re going somewhere (like to the bathroom). That can definitely save lives, but also save panics about lost kids in crowded spaces.

  • Some really good tips here! I had no idea about the talcum powder hack – who would have known! That is amazing and I will definitely try it next time we go to the beach! It is definitely worthwhile getting things ready the night before though, especially if you want to leave before midnight lol.
