How we score →Yay
5 experts · Moderate agreementWhat the gurus are saying
Airtight packaging with no preservatives sets this cream apart, and some people dislike that very feature. Reviewers praise it as a no-fuss moisturizer for sensitive, red, flared-up skin, and say its low allergen potential makes it a good pick, though the price is the main sticking point. The one thing to keep in mind: it is a lighter cream, so anyone with very dry skin may prefer the more intense version.
