i have extremely sensitive skin that cracks and splits, and is prone to eczema. I can actually use this cream! I have gifted it to everyone in my family as they all work outdoors / farm. The smell of hemp is minimal, I can't use overly scented products anyway so the milld scent is fine with me. My only con is it's hard to get the last bits out of the tube packaging, and it's little pricey for me. -

Like probably everyone else here with extremely sensitive skin and/or eczema issues, I've tried pretty much every drugstore brand on the market. I was excited to see what appeared to be a new product from Eucerin and am familiar with the brand from previous dermatologist referrals.
Fragrance free, truly. It is very minimally runny, not excessively so. It states it has a "water in oil emulsion" which forms a fine film with a sheen on the skin, preventing excessive moisture loss, and helping to relieve itching. However, this film is not excessive; you could put on gloves or drive without feeling overly oily or sticky. It does seems to have a direct benefit as I find I have to reapply less frequently, and have less itchiness, so I'm okay with a minor film!
My only complaint is it was expensive - nearly $23 for a 250ml bottle. It's worth a try though if you struggle to keep your hands from constantly being in pain from cracking/drying, eczema etc. My hands were extremely painful before I started using this.

My favourite concealer, I have tried lots and lots of others (like, every one on the market) and none of them work as well for covering extreme dark circles, in my experience. Provides good coverage. It will not last 12 hours - but none of the concealers I've tried will!
My only complaint is I run out of it quickly, but for the price it's still a good value.

A nice light acne correction lotion that you can wear every day under makeup on multiple problem areas, or use for spot treatments as needed.
.5% salicylic acid. I find it doesn't have an overly drying effect, but does a good job. I can use it in the morning when I feel a breakout starting and it reverses the problem.
Really effective and great price too!

A beautiful super-light, smooth, gel moisturizer, fairly transparent in colour, goes on quite fluid but dries quickly to a matte finish, very little scent (thank goodness) but a pleasant one. Feels almost as neutral as water, but moisturizes even in winter.
I looked all over for a water-based or gel type moisturizer after my former brand stopped making a similar product. I have very sensitive skin that is also acne prone and every other cream-based moisturizer I tried made me break out.
I hope they keep making this one!

Does a great job of making your eyelashes look much more substantial, thick. Goes on nicely and doesn't glob onto your upper eyelids!
