great little stick

I’m prone to dry patches, especially around my nose, mouth and t-zone. This product is perfect for improving the dryness in these areas quickly outside of my normal skincare routine. I love the balm texture and how the formula sits light on the skin but retains moisture. I also use this as my makeup primer and it seriously has been such a game changer.

Saved my windburned skin

This balm has a thick, waxy texture that melts instantly. No scent, which I love. It completely stopped the flaking on my cheeks after just two nights. A true holy grail.

Finally saved my sensitized winter skin

The texture is thick but melts instantly. It has zero scent, which I love. My redness calmed down overnight after using it to lock in my serum. Definitely a staple now.

Finally fixed my flaky winter skin

The texture is thick but melts instantly. No scent, which I love. It saved my dry patches after using retinol. My skin feels plump and the redness is finally gone.

Finally saved my sensitized winter skin

This balm is thick but melts instantly. The squalane feels so soothing on my dry patches and the scent is completely neutral. My barrier feels repaired already.

Saved my dry patches overnight

The texture is surprisingly light but locks everything in. No weird scent, just soothing. My skin barrier finally feels calm and less tight after using it for a week.

Nice balm, stick is ok

I like the idea of the no-hands application but it's a bit impractical to get even coverage. Even so, I like how the product feels and glides on. I can see scenarios where some coverage is better than none and hands are dirty, but I don't use this as much as I thought I would.
