I like this EXPENSIVE deodorant
Scent: Bergamot & Hinoki, Size: 2.6 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I really like the deoderant, as it seems to work well and goes on easily with no staining, etc. The reviews seem to emphasize the wonderful smell, but it is very mild and I find the smell minimal. It is rather expensive for a deodorant, but it works, so I will leave that up to the individual. Not sure if I will purchase again, but only because of the price, but I do like the product.

Perfect for Sensitive Skin Without Feeling Heavy
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I have very sensitive skin and finding a facial moisturizer that hydrates well without causing irritation can be a challenge. This one has been fantastic. It feels lightweight going on but still gives enough moisture that my skin stays soft and comfortable all day. No strong fragrance, no burning, no breakouts, just simple and effective skincare. I also really like that it layers well under makeup and doesn’t leave my face feeling greasy or sticky. The ceramides and hyaluronic acid make my skin feel healthier and more balanced overall. Vanicream continues to be one of the few brands my skin consistently tolerates well. I’ve already repurchased this and will keep using it.

Good for sensitive skin, zero fragrance, leaves skin soft and moisturized!
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I got this to go along with my Vanicream sensitive skin cleanser, and I'm very happy with it! It is a little more liquidy than cream-like, but it absorbs into skin well and leaves it feeling soft and moisturized. Great for sensitive skin and completely free of fragrance, with a shorter ingredient list that gives me more peace of mind. Very pleased with this, try it!

Great Value for a Good Moisturizer (5- Stars)
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This moisturizer contains nothing fancy — and that’s the whole point. The ingredients are few but effective, with several ceramides and hyaluronic acid for deep and long-lasting hydration. Best of all, it contains no silicones or parabens. Because it’s noncomedogenic, it doesn’t cause breakouts from clogged pores. Since I have sensitive skin, all of the above are critical for my skin care routine. It’s about as simple and as effective as a cream can get. Because of that, it doesn’t contains any sunscreen, retinol, or other anti-wrinkle components.

Excellent facial moisturizer
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Very gentle, lightweight, absorbs well without feeling greasy or heavy. Perfect to use after Fraxel laser treatment. I also like it is fragrance free and really good on sensitive skin.
