Thick, patented ceramide cream that restores the skin barrier; fragranced and heavy.

What the community says

A dense cream with patented ceramides for repairing the skin barrier, favored in winter and for combo skin needing extra moisture. It absorbs well but has fragrance and a heavy texture. Not ideal if you avoid scented products or prefer lightweight options.
