I do have dey skin and i often reach for this.
It highly remind me of dr. G. It wasn't that much of a dupe tho. This is more of a birch tree moisturizer.
This is my am moisturizer. It's really great for my dry skin. Nourishing and moisturizing. I also got this for half the price.
I did not see any adverse effect on my skin, no irritation whatsoever. In contrary, this is a pretty great moisturizer that check all the boxes.
