Review: Vaseline Healthy Hands Nail Strengthening hand cream lotion

Lemons,
This is a review of the Vaseline healthy hands nail strengthening nourishing hand lotion with keratin to nourish nails and Vitamin E for hydration. A size of 75 mls, I feel like this is a decent size for a home hand lotion, a bit to big for a purse lotion.

FORMULA:
Very very watery, slippery, not very creamy. EXTREMELY water based, and if you sweat easily around your hands, this will make it even more slimy and gross. Absorbs quite quickly, but doesn't hydrate much. It will moisturize dry, chapped hands, but only for about half an hour before drying up again. Doesn't provide much nourishment for the nails that I've noticed.

SMELL & TEXTURE:
It isn't gritty or exfoliating(good!), it's quite slimy and causes sweat in the hands. I personally don't like the smell that much, it smells just like baby powder. Not the most pleasant smell, but I don't entirely hate it. If you don't like the smell of baby powder, don't try this.

PACKAGING & PRICE:
It comes in a pink squeezy tube, but its very very easy to squeeze out too much hand lotion. My personal problem with squeeze tube hand creams, is when its a very liquidy formula and the dispenser hole is big, often hand cream will spread around the cap, dry, and make a mess(as you can see in photos). This wasn't too expensive, but I wouldn't buy it again.

OVERALL EXPERIENCE:
I'm giving it a 4/10, because it didn't really do anything for my hands, was not worth it, didn't like the packaging or smell. The positives are that it absorbs quickly, it isn't gritty, isn't too expensive, and is a decent size. I wouldn't purchase this again, or recommend it.
