Size: 16 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Size: 16 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This butter body cream is simply delicious, the texture in the skin feels soft, easy to absorb, the smell is really soft it doesn’t bother me at all. Good moisturizer for dry skin.

Great lotion!
Size: 16 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
My skin stays dry. I wash my hands numerously throughout the day and the outside of my left index finger is almost always dry or the skin splits from dryness. My elbows sometimes are really dry too. I love this lotion and the smell of it. It performs miracles on my dry skin, it's so good. I definitely recommend to those who suffer from dry skin not only year round, but at any time. I will warn you though that the jar is huge, so it's a lot.

HIGHLY RECOMMEND
Size: 16 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I’ve tried many lotions & creams for my rough elbows & dry feet. Soon after I applied this cream I was surprised to see how soft my elbows & feet were. I use this cream on my arms, legs, feet & hands, it has improved the condition of my skin dramatically. AWESOME cream!

Miracle cream
Size: 13.5 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I have been having crazy acne due to a severe reaction to salicylic acid, among other things. My face was incredibly inflamed, itchy, sensitive, red and painful. My dermatologist started me on an oral antibiotic and a clindamycin/benzoyl peroxide topical. The topical was still drying me out quite a bit so I got this lotion and it's literally a miracle cream. My skin is hydrated, no itchy or stinging and the redness has gone down so much. It's also helping my open sores to heal more quickly. Yes, it's a combination of all 3 products working together but I can definitely see and feel the cream repairing my skin barrier. I will be starting on accutane after a month of antibiotics and will continue to use this balm to keep me from drying up like a prune.

Works amazing! My eczema is clearing up on my face!
Size: 13.5 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I've been struggling with eczema all of my life and I'm insanely sensitive to all sorts of creams. I've tried just about everything you could find. Colloidal oatmeal ones...to hypo allergenic creams in high end stores. I react to goat's milk and even ones with no fragrance. Well, for the first time ever, I found a cream that seems to be doing the trick. I'm on meds to help with the eczema, but the issue was the eye area, upper forehead [between eyebrows], and right under the nose and around the lips. I'd always get this redness and it didn't matter what creams I used. I recently switched to a Clinique soap [more like a moisturizer that comes out of a bottle] for my face, but it still wasn't getting better. It helped, but the redness wasn't going away! I read online about this cream. I don't use a ton. I put literally a drop under each eye and gently tap it into the area. I also just dab a tiny amount on any other red spot. I'm primarily using this for areas where the redness won't go away. Well, three days after starting this my skin is FINALLY healing around my eyes and in the other zones. My mom even noticed! I can tell you, this is a THICK cream. It's too heavy to slather all over your face. Use it to target areas and use a lighter moisturizer [Aveeno has a sensitive face cream that's new and works]. This cream will help the skin heal [all those annoying patches and redness]. It's worth the money. I suspect it's going to take me ages to finish this bottle off. But, it just is so nice to see my face and not have some sort of weird raccoon look. FYI - I do have some patches on my legs which I glob it on and it's helping that heal too. If you need a good hydrating cream that helps protect the skin and helps it get over that bump where it's irritated, this may work for you. Oh, it has absolutely no scent - none. That was a nice surprise. It's designed for sensitive skin. Initially, I was worried about the cost, but now that my eczema is healing up, it's worth every penny. This worked better than all those steroids and hydrocortisone my docs kept giving me. I was so stressed over the wrinkles under my eyes and for once, it's looking nice. :)
