    Hate the tube (messy!) but I love the cream. This is a great all-around moisturizer for serious dryness. I agree, however, that if you have any issues with breakouts this is bad, bad news for...

    I have very very dry skin and finally I found something that can make me less ashy. It feels greasy at first, but gets absorbed beautifully by my skin. I even use it on my face as a night cream...

    I bought a sample size of this cream at Target for I believe 2.99. This is more like an ointment than a cream. It feels a bit heavy on the skin, so I'll only use this when I get really dry. I don't...

    Too greasy and shiny for me to appreciate. I like it best as a lip balm, but would not repurchase only for this purpose. Will continue to use up on feet and hands, then move on to other products.
