Have any of you tried Udderly Smooth moisturizer? What can you tell me about it?

Is this the one in the cow-print container? If so, yes I use it and like it very much. It used to be marketed to farmers for chaffed udders (hence the name). My husband's family (farmers) turned me onto it years ago. I use it as my daily body cream. It is rich and mostly scentless. I recommend it.

I have heard this is something Shania Twain uses , who knows for sure.
In the article Sillage posted about Carmen Dell'Orefice, Bag Balm is mentioned as her beauty secret , hmmmm, must dig out that tin I have laying around somewhere.

Bag Balm reeks sufficiently to contraindicate its use.

Thank you all for your replies. I think I am going to get some of this stuff and give it a try.
Isabella bird, what does Bag Balm smell like? Like a barnyard? I hope not, LOL!

Bag Balm has a highly medicinal smell, almost sulfuric. Quite repellant!

Bag Balm smells like highly concentrated Vicks Vapo-rub to me, but it works when nothing else does, like on deep cracks, etc.

I could plug my nose at the smell , it was the texture that got me , my skin is not ready for that much grease , yet.

Ellen,
I had some and I will tell you that the only downfall was that when I used it at work I ended up with white chalky stuff all over my black dress trousers.
I couldn't figure out what the heck it was. I finally figured out it was my hands rubbing on my slacks after using the Udderly Smooth.
I liked the sort of lilac scent it had though.
Kind of the same way Avon Silicone Glove does.
It's probably okay to use at night though before bed.
This Dionne stuff was pretty good and lemon scented. Nice for smoothing on feet at night.
I think I got it at Wal Mart or somewhere like that.

I've tried Avon Moisture Therapy recently and it's just okay
Honestly I still prefer Avon Vita Moist handcream and keep stocked up on the stuff!
