Has anyone noticed that they’ve changed the formula? ? I’ve got dry skin and always use body lotion after my shower. The Pro Age stuff used to be thick and creamy but now it’s quite runny and no different to the other Dove lotions. It’s so annoying when you find a brand that suits you and they change it!

Maybe it comes in two kinds and you picked up the wrong one by mistake? I'm always doing that only to find when I get home that I've bought completely the wrong thing because it looked exactly like what I wanted.

Some body lotions come in a dry skin version and a very dry skin version, the latter being very thick and sticky. It is something to do with one being an oil-in-water emulsion and the other one water-in-oil.

I used to like Dove Pro Age but I have tried to stop buying anything in plastic bottles. I have gone over to solid bars of body lotion. They really work and come in some lovely perfumes, or perfume free and are just wrapped in paper.

The best thing is you can get dressed immediately after applying.
