Reviews mention

  • Soothing oat-based formulations
  • Gentle, non-stripping cleansers
  • Hydrating, long-lasting moisture
  • Family-friendly baby care offerings
  • Overly strong lavender fragrance
  • Inconsistent facial product results
  • Reformulations reduce user satisfaction
  • Removed spf from moisturizer

Aveeno earns largely positive reviews and proves effective for dry and sensitive skin, with oat-based formulas that soothe, moisturize, and cleanse gently; signature standouts include Daily Moisturizing Body Wash, Clear Complexion Moisturizer, Baby Wash & Shampoo, and the Repairing CICA Hand Mask. Reviews also flag drawbacks—fragrance can run strong in lavender, facial moisturizers and formula changes don’t suit every sensitive face, SPF was removed from a longtime favorite, and results can be hit-or-miss—making the brand reliable for body care and baby care but less consistent for facial products.

  • The last eight months has been a trial and error with several products on the market. My wife and I have recently switched to the Aveeno Baby Wash & Shampoo. Our daughter's hair and skin has improved and looks and feels soft and nourished. This particular product contains natural oat extract that helps with my daughter's sensitive skin issues. It is hypoallergenic and a tear-free product. I would 100 percent recommend this product not only for your children but also for yourself.

  • This is my son‘s favorite conditioner and shampoo! We have used it for years and he gets so upset when we run out of it and he has to use something different. He has a very sensitive skin and dry skin in the winter and this keeps his scalp happy. His hair is a little bit longer and this makes it easy to brush through.

  • Aveeno Sensitive Skin Face and Body Wash for Kids is a great option for those looking for a bodywash for the underarm and groin area that won't irritate or dry your skin out. It is pretty affordable and a little goes a long way. I just wouldn't suggest using it on your face and neck if you're sensitive towards fragrances.

  • I absolutely love Aveeno From the very first use, my skin felt softer, smoother, and deeply hydrated. The formula is gentle yet effective, creating a rich lather that cleans without stripping natural oils. It has a light, pleasant scent that isn’t overpowering, making it perfect for everyday use. After showering, my skin feels refreshed and nourished all day long. It’s especially great for dry or sensitive skin, as it provides lasting moisture. Overall, this product exceeded my expectations, and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a reliable, hydrating body wash.

  • This Aveeno hand mask has helped me so much! I have super dry hands and I use this every once in awhile and it keeps my hands feeling soft and smooth. I leave the hand mask on for a bit and they come out feeling great!

  • This has been our go-to daily facial cleanser for over a decade. It’s affordable, readily available, and makes your face feel clean and tight. The formula changed a few years ago, but it’s still okay, I just miss the old one.

  • Aveeno has a fantastic line of skin care products. I especially like their lotion and face cleaners. Both are high quality and yet don't leave my skin feeling greasy. For more intense skin needs, the hand-repairing mask is a great option.

  • I have been using the Aveeno clear complexion moisturizer for many years. I have sensitive skin and I am prone to breakouts. This moisturizer has always worked well for me. I am disappointed that they removed the SPF. Also the price increases in the last few years are ridiculous.

  • This body wash is very moisturizing. It lathers up very well without having to use a lot. It has a very light scent. I prefer stronger scents in my body washes. It makes my skin soft, it definitely helps with dry skin. It's great for sensitive skin.

  • I was pleasantly surprised at the quality of this body wash. It is fairly concentrated, which makes it go a long way. The fragrance is mild and clean and leans unisex, which is great for the entire household. It has a suggested use as a shave gel, and it works wonderfully, leaving smooth, non irritated, and hydrated skin.

  • the unscented skincare line is very good and does the job. the lavender smells very perfume-y and I don’t recommend to use at might for the purpose of skincare because the scent is so strong. i really like the unscented one better.

  • I’ve tried a few Aveeno products, including a sunscreen I liked. Recently I tried the skin relief body wash. I received this product complimentary for testing purposes. After about two weeks of use, it seems to have had a small positive effect on my mildly dry and occasionally itchy skin. I’ll be curious to see how it works in the long run. I like that it’s unscented and it cleanses well.

  • The smell is very soft and pleasant, I'm loving it. It doesn't sting children's eyes and leaves their hair very moisturized and shiny. It's a shame it doesn't come in larger bottles so it lasts longer.

  • Aveeno is a brand that I regularly use and seem to have little to no problem with (skin wise, as it’s soothing oats help to relieve my skin). I have use many different products from this company including body washes, creams, eczema care, baby, etc. my newest product that I’m trying and liking from this brand is their healing ointment (as seen in the photo). I do find it a little pricey in store though.

  • I have used the daily moisturizing body lotion and can go on and on about how good the lotion is. It really does moisturize my hands. However, there are so many other generic brands out their are just as effective as the name brand. More often than not I think paying for the name brand items is worth it, however when it comes to the Aveeno lotion vs the other generic brands offered by Target, Walmart, Amazon ect. I think it is worth saving your money.

  • As a gentleman who works works with his hands and with constant hand washing due to being in the medical profession, it has been tough finding a decent product. With the constant unhappiness by my girlfriend about my rough hands and fingers, I decided to try a moisturizer for my hands. I came across the Aveeno Repairing CICA hand mask. I have got to tell you that this is and continues to be one of the best products I have ever used. Enriched with Shea butter and prebiotic oats, it has provided great results for my skin. Those once rough and tough fingers and hands are now gentle and smooth. All you will have to do is put on the gloves and sit back for 10 minutes and watch the miracle happen. You will definitely not be disappointed. Highly recommended by me and dermatologists.

  • I love love love aveeno! It’s just such a staple that has always been a part of my life. It is affordable and yet so effective. My favorite is its calm and restore line- as seen in the pic, I’ve finished so many of their calm and restore serums! Just the perfect hydration!

  • Aveeno has a reasonably priced and wide variety of skin care products, I like their body lotions, but use their facial moisturizers more sparingly as my skin sometimes don't handle the ingredients well. The facial cleansers are a bit more tolerable for my sensitive skin.

  • When it comes to Aveeno I feel like the products are hit or miss. I tried Aveeno baby eczema therapy for dry patches and saw some improvement. Don’t love the ingredients but does help with the itchiness.
