Side by side comparison ......
Scent: Fresh Mint, Size: 13.2 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Like everyone else shopping around for lotion, I want one that, most importantly, works. I'm so very tired of lotions that feel like I'm applying colored water to hands so my go to lotion has become Gold Bond as it's a genuinely thick, somewhat long lasting lotion with minimal scent at a decent (ish) price point. I am however, always looking to find something even better so I thought I'd give this stuff a try. This is just an estimation, but I feel it is about 20% less viscous than the Gold Bond Healing lotion however, in a side by side test where I applied the back of one hand with the GB and the back of the other with this K&H brand, after one hour the K&H feels every bit as supple but just a tad more velvety if you will. Although I prefer a non scented lotion, after an hour, the K&H scent has indeed lighted up a bit but smells better than the GB. The GB seems to almost have an underlying petroleum type odor - not offensive really but just that the K&H smells better to me is all. The Gold Bond does get the favoring nod in the price dept though as it's very close to 50% less expensive than this Karl & Hans. If all things were equal (and that includes the price), I'd pick the K&H over the GB however with price point always being of concern for me personally, I don't think the attributes of the K&H beat out the overall value of the GB.
