I tend to have very dry skin and with my allergies I have to be careful what I use. This lotion is great. In extreme heat my skin can get really dry. Me and my hubby just did a 48 hour none stop benefit for a friend. Under all the lights my skin gets real dry. Not once did my skin get dry. There is no smell to last. It goes on great and absorbed in the skin fast. It did not feel oily like most lotions do which is a plus. I love the fact that it is all natural without any chemicals. It also lasted all day after you apply the lotion which is very good. But also remember everyone's skin is different. What works for me may not work for you.
