Three stars because I mostly blame my skin for my bad reaction to this. I don’t seem to be able to tolerate fatty alcohols or any sort of clogging ingredients, which is extremely unfortunate because that essentially means I can’t use some of the most basic occlusives. I advise against this if you have decently acne or clog prone skin as it’s VERY thick. I had trouble just rubbing it across my skin.
