Ceramides and niacinamide make this a barrier-friendly, richer baby lotion; can feel occlusive.

What the community says

A richer baby lotion with ceramides, niacinamide, and dimethicone that sits well under concealer and helps stressed, dry, or rosacea-prone skin. It can feel too occlusive for some faces and may sting on open irritation.
