I have incredibly sensitive skin and a dislike for anything that feels heavy or tacky once you've applied it. This lotion has been fantastic, and I was surprised at how quickly it soothed my dry, super itchy skin. Within 10 minutes of applying it, my skin started to calm down. It also soothed my healing tattoo, and helped me prevent an eczema flare up on my hands.
I really appreciated that this lotion did not have any real scent to it, how creamy and soothing it was while still drying down/soaking in quickly. I will definitely be reaching for this whenever my skin is being reactive.

My partner uses this scrub every single time he showers. He's used it for 4 or 5 years now, and consistently goes back to it because it helps keep his skin clear.
I, on the other hand, cannot use this scrub on my face (and only occasionally use it on my chest/neck). I have very sensitive skin, and the exfoliant in this scrub is a bit too harsh for me. When I use it on my face, my skin ends up red and a bit sore and often quiet dry. There is an oatmeal version which I tend to use instead, as it is a bit more on the gentle side.
I would not recommend this product to anyone who has sensitive skin or a condition like rosacea.

I purchased this cream at a Sephora, on the recommendation from someone who had similar skin as I did: dry, sensitive and prone to break-outs. I was a bit leery at first because of the price point, but was assured that a little went a long way and I would likely get 16-18 months of use out of the product (depending on how much I used). 14 months later, I am getting to the bottom of the pot and still love it as much as I did when I first bought it. My complexion has evened out a little bit (my nose still gets super dry), and my skin looks and feels a lot nicer than it did before I started using the treatment.
It is very lightly scented (which was a plus for me), doesn't leave my skin looking or feeling greasy, and has never broken me out. A little does go a long way, and it is the only facial cream that I have ever used consistently. What's even better is that the pot is the perfect size to bring it in your carry-on when traveling!
