I got this one in rush and didn't think much about it. I have very sensitive skin and sometimes I peel from products. Needless to say I need prot
...ection and this is balm that is not thick with SPF. Applying multiple times doesn't leave a greasy feeling and helped repair my skin quicker

I am never without a tube of this. I mix it with my moisturiser when my skin is feeling dry especially in the colder months. Sometimes I can just appl
...y it to my face alone and it will be enough to keep it well moisturised. I also use it on my hands cuticles elbows and razor burns. This cream is also a useful barrier cream for my little ones.

My skin was left very red and dry after overdoing it with retinol and chemical exfoliants. This product really helped soothe and repair my skin. I use

It is perfect for the skin types it is advertised for. Me and my father both have been using this. He has got rosacea and after retinol treatment his
...skin is very dry and I've got a very sensitive acne-prone skin and this is such a calming, gentle and moisrurising spf with high protection. I have had better facial spf creams that were less greasy but this one is still pretty comfortable. I wouldn't recommend it if you have very oily skin, though.

I needed something to really lock in moisture and keep my skin from cracking while on accutane. This does exactly that! It is very thick and leaves a
...white cast, however this isn't a big deal for me. No scent and is very hydrating, it really locks in moisture for hours. I also love that is it multipurpose. I would agree calling it more of a balm due to its thickness but if you need something to help with dry skin I would 100% recommend.

This is the best cream I have ever used and i use it for EVERYTHING! I use it on rashes, bites, stings, grazes, burns. Use it for my babies nappy rash
..., chapped lips, cradle cap. I dont need to keep sudocream or bepanthen or anything like that in my home because I literally do use this for everything. It really is a miracle cream. I even get the smaller size to keep in my handbag so that I always have some on hand.

I have been struggling with dry and sore sensitive skin for a while now. This cream is a life saver, it doesn’t sting unbroken skin the way many oth
...er moisturisers do. Sits on the surface of the skin for a while as opposed to drying up straight away!

I use this when my skin gets extremely dry, usually in the winter and this seems to get rid of it quickly. Not greasy feeling and lightweight.

Good product for repairing skin barrier, and haven't had any bad reaction to the product. With that said I do wish the product was a little light

This is possibly my favourite moisturizer (I went through 5 of these big tubes), I use it on my face, hands and body also on my son since he was a bab
...y. It's very rich and nourishing but doesn't clog my pores. It restores my skin barrier every time I overexfoliate or have an allergic reaction, works great for my eczema, perfect all rounder! I love it!

I suffer from eczema which I treat with perscription creams. But I always need help and protection during the day to moisturise and calm the skin. I f
...elt like I had tried everything when I was recomended this. In just a few hours after applying this to my neck and mouth my skin felt calmer and after continuous reapplication every day my skin started healing already on the second day, no joke! It is a miracle worker and it does not get enough credit! I recommend this to everyone who needs a healing cream for everything from scratches to dry patches, you will not be disappointed!

This is a product that I always keep at home. It helps with dermatitis and with repairing my skin barrier after using tretinoin or acid exfoliants. It
... is quite liquidy, not thick, not greasy and absorbs quickly. I also like the fact that is reasonably priced, compared to other similar products on the market.

My tween daughter has keratosis pilaris, I have tried so many products and protocols to help her manage it. I bought this baume because of a review on

for this formulation.
