This cream isn’t my favorite moisturizer but it is always the one I reach for when my skin barrier needs help. It contains beads of encapsulated ceramides that help repair damage. I use a lot of actives (prescription and over the counter) that can sometimes lead to over exfoliation, and this product provides gentle hydration, while repairing and soothing my skin without further irritation. It has a thick cream texture that feels a little heavy. I layer it on as the last step of my routine at night when my skin barrier is weakened. Would highly recommend just to have in case of barrier emergency
