Benefits / What It Helps With
Here’s what using this cream can do (or aims to do):
Relieves dryness and tightness — helps soothe the uncomfortable feeling associated with very dry skin.
Softens rough or flaky skin, making it smoother.
Helps repair and strengthen the skin barrier — important for sensitive skin that may become irritated easily.
Protects against moisture loss, so re-drying (after wash, exposure, etc.) is reduced.
Suitable for face & body — can be used on hands, feet, elbows, knees, etc. especially on those hard-to-treat dry patches.
Because it is free of common irritants (fragrance, parabens), it's safer for sensitive skin and when skin is compromised.

Things to Keep in Mind / Limitations
Due to being a rich cream (more occlusive/emollient), some people might find it a bit heavy on very oily skin or humid conditions.
As with any product, if you have a known allergy (e.g. to any oil component like almond oil), patch test first.
Results like “full barrier repair” assume consistent use over time. Using it only once won’t produce all benefits.
