Pros

  • Milky texture that's hydrating without heaviness—layers well under treatments
  • 3:1:1 ceramide, cholesterol, and fatty acid blend supports barrier repair
  • Widely used in tret routines as a staple for preventing dryness and peeling

Cons

  • Can overwhelm severely dehydrated skin if layered with too many actives
  • Some combo and oily skin folks experience mild breakouts or closed comedones
  • Not great if your skin barrier is already wrecked—ferments and botanicals may sting and cause irritation
