Just like everyone else, I have combination, breakout, sensitive skin, and this stuff works. The smell isn't too bad, in my opinion, and it doesn't sting if the area is sensitive. Price wise, high...

I have acne and large pores so I use Retin A Micro and clindamycin on alternating nights, giving my skin a rest every 3rd night. The harsh ointments and onset of winter have made my once oily, and...

I love this! If you're not used to this kind of moisturizer you will probably find it greasy and thick at first. I do have sensitive skin and it works great for that. I can really see an...

Best all-purpose moisturiser ever. It works so well, after using it the skin feels soft and glowy. I have very dry skin, but I can break out sometimes, and this hasn't caused any problems at all....

I love the smell of this product--and I usually hate fragrances in products. It's highly effective stuff for dry cuticles. I think it's the combination of high-omega-6 sunflower oil and lanolin....

Yes, it is sticky. Yes, it smells bad. Yes, it is way too heavy (but it is not a problem because my super dry dehydrated skin needs a heavy cream). But the real problem is it irritated my skin so...
