Here's what our community thinks
Sioris Deep In A Barrier Cream 34 ingredients
It has a weird smell that reminds me of BCAA powder for some reason, but it dissipates quickly. The cream is thick and non-irritating and I appreciate that it comes in a pump. That said, I don't think it's moisturizing enough for dry skin types. It leaves a matte finish.
