This cream is great for skin that is being ravaged by a prescription retinol regimen. Retinol tends to make your skin worse before it gets better and mine got dried out to the point of cracking and almost bleeding. I had been putting Neosporin on it because everything else stung until I found this. Really fantastic and protective. I'd also put it on a sunburn, a regular burn, basically any skin situation that needs protection and can't risk irritation. I don't think it's one of those that absorbs too much, it acts more like a protective layer.
I'd never purchased from this site before and read some mixed reviews so was not sure about it but they had such a good price that I gave it a try and I had no issues. Will purchase here again for expensive stuff like this in larger quantities.
