Here's what our community thinks
ma:nyo Panthetoin Enriched Balm 52 ingredients
My dry, sensitive skin really loves this balm. It's nice and thick, providing a good barrier for the nighttime. When I use it, I wake up with soft, supple skin. I use it on rotation with another one, so I don't go through it too quickly since it's hard to get now. This product does have vitamin C in it, which usually upsets my skin, but this formulation doesn't cause sensitivity.

The texture of this formula is gel like but feels so smooth and soft on the skin, it didn't break me out even though I have combination acne=prone skin and I love the hydrating effect- Although, if your skin is flaking out w/ dryness, this is not enough to hydrate it.
Not for oily skin
Not for combi skin. Breaks my out.
