    This is my new HG moisturizer. Love it! After seeing this product recommended as a great after-a-night-of-drinking moisturizer in December's Instyle magazine, I had to try it. I am so glad I...

    Really good product. It has rosemary extract which is an excellent antioxidant. It is very thick. I take a pea sized dab and melt it in my hands and then pat on my skin at night after my AHA and...

    I find this product as essential as Aquaphor, and I go through multiple tubes of it each year. It doesn't have much slip to it, so if you use it on the face you have to pat it on rather than...

    This cream is excellent for use with benzoyl peroxide. I have very dry skin and the only thing that helps with my acne is a combination of 2.5% benzoyl peroxide and a rich moisturizer. I've used...

    Guess I'm the odd man out. I think this is just an ok product. It works kind of like vaseline to me. It doesn't seem to have any additional benefit and really did nothing for my facial skin, so...
