Okay, I have finally figured out the old-lady-perfume smell that plagues me in my office. It's me. It's the moisturizer I use on my neck. It stinks going on and doesn't mix well with my scent at all. I only notice it if I happen to sit with my hand on my jaw line/neck.

I need some new moisturizing cream.

What do you use??

It's a JASON product. I really like JASON stuff, normally, but this cream stinks. It shouldn't have taken me this long to make the connection.

:P

I've never heard of that brand before....so I can't recommend anything that might be similar...

They use mostly organic and natural ingredients. I'd love this stuff if it was unscented. Personally, I don't know why they put fragrance in face/neck creams anyway. Gross.

Not to mention the fact that frangrance can irritate the skin, which means some people won't be able to use it. You'd think they'd want as many people as possible to use it.....

All I know is, if I dared to buy an Aveeno product and the soy didn't make me puffy and itchy, the smell would certainly make me queasy all day. Face creams should be like candles at dinner: unscented. Yep.

Yeah, I never could use Jason for that reason, which sucks, because it's nice otherwise. A lot of other "natural" brands also include fragrances I just can't take, natural or otherwise.

I use Cerave now. It's not as natural, but it's truly unscented and moisturizes better than anything else I've tried.
