We’re all busy. Life can be totally hectic sometimes, and it’s easy to let one’s beauty routine fall by the wayside, especially when you’re in a rush. Besides being a full-time fashion and DIY blogger and freelancing in graphic design and illustration, I’m also a full-time mom to a rambunctious 7 year-old. It seems no matter how early we get up in the morning, we always end up in the car 20 minutes late to get my little one to school. Body lotion is the last thing on my mind in those precious few minutes I have to get ready.
But summer’s here, and I want to walk around in breezy dresses, shorts, and shorter skirts. My legs are nowhere near summer-ready and I am way behind on starting a moisturizing routine, but I’m still in a rush and honestly quite lazy when it comes to beauty. The more hands-off and fuss-free, the better!
That’s why Vaseline® Spray & Go Moisturizer appealed to me from the very first commercial I saw (I tried the Total Moisture® variant, specifically). Spray it? Go? Instant absorption? Sounds like Vaseline just cut moisturizing time in half. It’s super easy to use–same concept as using hairspray or spray-on sunblock–just uncap, aim, and spray.
The moisturizer is actually more of a lightweight lotion (with a multi-layer moisture complex), and I was surprised by how quickly it absorbed into my skin. Before, I would apply body lotion (when I would remember to) at night after my bath, but with Vaseline Spray & Go Moisturizer I can just add it into my morning routine and have healthy, moisturized skin all day without the mess.
To apply, you just spray up, switch hands, spray down, and then rub in (“Up, Switch, Down, Rub”). After spraying it on and rubbing it in, I put on a pair of jeans within 3 minutes and my legs weren’t sticking to the inside of the jeans–an awesome improvement.
And I was surprised that my legs were still soft and gleaming–even when I got in the bath about 8 hours later in the evening, when the water beaded wherever I had applied the moisturizer.
Vaseline Spray & Go Moisturizer comes in three variants: Total Moisture, which contains pure oat extract and leaves skin feeling healthy and soft skin (pictured); Aloe Fresh, which contains pure aloe and leaves skin feeling healthy and fresh, and Cocoa Radiant™, which contains cocoa butter and leave feeling healthy and skin glowing.
And yes, although I am still rushed in the morning, it’s not that big of a deal to just spray the moisturizer onto my legs before slipping into jeans.
Soon…I’ll be slipping into shorts. 😉

This would make my morning so much faster! Thanks for a great giveaway!
It would maximize my mornings because my morning routine would go faster! I wouldn’t have to wait as long for my moisturizer to dry and can instead get on with my day!

Less time, less mess and no excuses to apply more often for softer skin.Thanks
My husband would love this product! He needs to and wants to put on lotion, especially on his dry legs, but he can’t stand the sticky feeling most lotions leave.
It’s always so hard to find a good lotion that isn’t to thick or heavy and doesn’t have too strong of a scent! This looks like a good solution!
The Vaseline Spray would make my legs silky and smooth, preparing me to take on the day with confidence. 🙂

I would use this after shaving my legs in the shower.
I would use after shower for dry skin. Would be a time saver indeed.
This would be much faster; also, since I have such dry skin I really believe it would help alleviate that.
It would help me start the day out feeling fresh, soft and pretty.
I use Vaseline in the mornings and love it!!

It would save a lot of time not having to rub it in!
I could slip on my pants much faster! Less time to get dressed is always good.
Maybe it would give me enough time to have a second cup of coffee in the morning- that would be great!

spray on sounds easy and I’d be more likely to actually use moisturizer in the morning!
