Studies show Cetearyl alcohol is non-toxic and non-irritating. The FDA allows products labeled "alcohol-free" to have fatty alcohols.

I used this for 3 days (morning and evening) when I finally stopped having brekouts. Just when I used it, the next day I got painful cyctic acnes and it just made my face dull with bumps all over my forehead.
Also the smell is horrible if you're not a fan of that (almost smells like a strong herbal medication)

My dry, sensitive skin really loves this cream on cold winter mornings. It provides an excellent barrier from the cold and protects my skin. This product is thick and occlusive. It has vitamin C, which usually upsets my skin and causes sensitivity, but this formula doesn't seem to upset my skin.
