Spray on Lotion?

I saw the a coupon for Spray-on Lotion today in the newspaper.

It's new.

It's from Vaseline.

It's ridiculous.


Now, I think that the point of the new product is to spray lotion on your back because it's difficult to reach if you don't have a handsome hubbie to rub it on there for you.

My solution?

1. Unscrew the cap of the lotion.
2. Stir the lotion with the pump straw
3. Rub the pump straw on your back.

Done:  you now have lotion on your back.

It's no more environmentally damaging than buying the lotion to begin with and it doesn't cost any more than the bottle, either.


I honestly thought that we were beyond creating new products with CFCs (propellants), but this is brand new.  Evidently, people have forgotten about CFCs because of the BPA (it's a type of plastic) and mineral oil (also a type of petroleum) scares.

Well, if you're worried about any of these, don't buy Vaseline lotions.

They are full of BPAs.

They use mineral oil.

And now they use CFCs.

I can only imagine how great that is to spray all over your dry skin:

"Hey, great absorbing quality for the lotion...AND the CFCs."

So, dangerous and environmentally irresponsible.

Who freakin' thinks of these things?
