Good cream. Bad packaging
My only issue is with the packaging. After some time it breaks down from repeated squeezing. Initially, I thought there was something wrong with my tube, but it kept happening to the 2nd and 3rd tubes that I bought.
Other than that I loved the consistency of the cream. It absorbed fast enough without leaving the skin sticky.
