This is an all-purpose cream. I bought it because I had very rough hands. I feel it's the most effective product I've bought recently. I also used it on my eyes and around my mouth, where I felt dryness, and it left them feeling moisturized. The scent reminds me of dermatologist creams, which I don't like, but it's not unpleasant. I'll definitely buy it again!

As I'm currently undergoing treatment for seborrheic dermatitis and rosacea, I try to limit oils as much as possible in my skincare routine. While I may use a lotion in addition to lotion, I generally avoid creams. This is the only product I've ever wanted to have. It's called a repair milk, but its texture is completely creamy. Having tried every hypoallergenic cream, this one felt right for me. Since oily ingredients aren't ideal for seborrheic dermatitis, this one, which contains shea butter, isn't really recommended, but I have no problems using it. The recommended amount is slightly larger than a pearl-sized amount per application, but I try to use less than that. It still provides adequate moisturizing power, and most importantly, it's truly hypoallergenic. One issue, as many have mentioned, is the "scent." It has a rather strong, indescribable, "smell" of ingredients. I'm a sucker for synthetic fragrances, so even I, who can tolerate these types of scents, am daunted. This might be a problem for some people, but it's a shame. Last year, I made the mistake of buying La Roche-Posay's Cicaplast Repair Cream instead of this one, so I ended up trying both, but I definitely prefer this one because it's easy to apply and doesn't leave a sticky finish. I recommend it to anyone looking for a light, mild, and highly moisturizing cream.
