Pros

  • Minimal irritants and fragrance-free — great for sensitive, reactive skin
  • Absorbs quickly without greasiness — layers easily under makeup or sunscreen
  • Widely used as a buffer moisturizer to soothe tretinoin-induced dryness and peeling

Cons

  • Can cause breakouts or clogged pores in acne-prone or oily skin for some users
  • Some report mild stinging or burning sensations, possibly from ingredients like cetearyl alcohol or sorbitol
  • Not as hydrating as occlusive creams; may feel insufficient for very dry or eczema-prone skin without layering
