19 experts · Strong agreementWhat the gurus are saying
Thick as butter and built for dry skin, this pump-top cream is the one gurus reach for in winter and alongside a retinoid, when skin needs a buffer against flaking. They credit its ceramide-rich lipid blend and peptides for strengthening the barrier, and say it's rich but fragrance-free. It takes a moment to sink in, and a few flag the price, but the praise holds anyway.

Independent of what the gurus think, this is what the published research supports about the main active ingredients here.
Ceramides are part of the skin's own barrier, and moisturisers built around them have evidence for holding water in and settling the tightness and flaking that come with a damaged barrier.

Vitamin E is an antioxidant, and it is often in a formula to keep the other ingredients stable rather than as the active itself. It pairs well with vitamin C, though on its own the evidence for visible change is limited.
