Cannot say enough good things
This is my all time favourite moisturizer. i use it anywhere needed and never feels oily or too heavy. absorbs right into the skin and feels hydrated, soft and clean. if you want to lessen steps in your skin care routine, this is an awesome one to use instead of two face/body moisturizers
Irritating
Sadly, this stuff burns, and it smells like menthol. I had high hopes because I like both oatmeal and squalane in skin products, but this is not good for extremely sensitive skin.

Nothing too special, it's not hydrating enough for super dry skin and it pills sometimes. It doesn't irritate my skin tho
