Affordable and it really works
This leaves your skin very smooth and hydrated. Is on the oily side but absorbs well. I use it for my elbows and feet which are my driest areas. I can't recommend this enough, already bought two more to give to my mom and sister.

Not for me
I have dry skin but I found this to be too “greasy” for my skin. I used it for a week at night . I can see where it would beneficial after treatments, but for everyday use, it’s too heavy for me.

Very good moisturizer
I know some reviews say this moisturizer has a texture like Vaseline but I mix it with another moisturizer to make it smother and it works great especially in The winter. During the summer I use this product after I have been swimming laps to rehydrate my skin. I like the way it makes my skin smooth and soft.

Lots of Moist but No Absorption
Trying to use this as a nightly moisturizer didn't quite work as it seems (for my oil tendency skin) does not absorb, it just sits over and probably left over my pillow. Probably work for burnt or irritated areas, but not so much as a daily product.

Wish I had bought in the jar
This is a very good product, but I find I have to shake it before applying as it seems to separate. I used a sample and really liked on very dry spots or spots prone to eczema. Butwhen I buy again, I'll go for the jar.

Great intense moisturizer
I use this product nightly. It has kept my skin in great condition. This is the only product that has worked this well and it is reasonably priced.

So soft
This is so smooth and softens your skin. You don’t need much. My skin is velvety soft throughout the day.

Intense Moisture!
I normally have oily skin, but after using Retin-A for the past two months the skin around my mouth and nose have become dry and flaky. I have been searching for an affordable "heavy" moisturizer. I already use Elta MD sunscreen and cleanser, so I thought I would give this a try. I use this only at night, and I like the moisture it gives my skin. It does leave my skin feeling slightly greasy at night, but it hasn't increased my oil production during the day. For how much it helps my dry skin, its worth it!

Luxurious but not for acne-prone skin
I loved applying this product. It felt so decadent and luxurious on my skin. However, if you are acne prone like me, this really seemed to clog my pores and was simply too heavy for me. I recommend trying a hydrating serum instead of an emollient if you are struggling with finding a moisturizer for acne-prone skin.

As expected
I got this to use after peel and will use it once I start with retinol creams. It definitely seems to work. It’s hard to gauge how much will be enough and not way too much. I expect the tubes I bought to last a long time.

Great Moisturizer for Sensitive Skin
I recently found out I suffer from flare-ups from eczema and use this as my night time moisturizer. This provides great moisture to my mid-50s dry, sensitive skin.

Good Product!
I like elta MD products but had not tried this intense moisturizer. It works well and doesn’t take a lot as it it thicker than most moisturizers.

Prevents Skin from Peeling
After incorporating Retinol into my routine, I’ve been struggling with my skin peeling. This moisturizer is heavy (and a little goes a long way), but it’s nearly eliminated those frustrating white flakes and patches I was waking up to several times each week. This product is definitely for nighttime-only use because it doesn’t disappear after application, but it works well following the Retinol application for me.

Very moisturizing
This is VERY greasy but it works if you can stand the feeling of it.

Amazing!
This moisturizer literally melts as you apply it. It's easily absorbed and leaves my skin hydrated all day. I have recently started using Elta MD products based on LovelySkin's recommendations. I couldn't be happier with this moisturizer and all the Elta MD products.

"Melting" Moisturizer
When I first used this moisturizer I was a bit surprised at the "type" and consistency of it. I had planned to use it as my night moisturizer. I figured it would be a rich cream since it was labeled as "intense". It's actually more like an ointment or balm, but not as heavy or greasy. It does immediately "thin out" similar to a serum upon application. It does a nice job of moisturizing and my face does not react to it like other creams I've used.

Creates an Effective Moisture Barrier
I’m always on the lookout for an effective moisture barrier for the drier areas of my face and neck. Elta’s moisturizer works really well for having such basic ingredients, and even though it’s fairly greasy, it soaks into my dry skin pretty quickly. I’ll even press a bit onto extra dry areas after my moisturizing sunscreen. Very reasonably priced and you don’t need a lot at one time—will definitely repurchase!

Excellent for Moisture...
This has been my very favorite for a long time. I have very dry skin and I put this one on last, at night, and let it do its thing overnight. I absolutely love it. It was originally recommended to me by my dermatologist because any retinol product makes my face peel. Add this on top at night and it will repair any problems. Large tube, last a long time. You have to buy two tubes at a a time, so be careful not to let it get too warm or it does have a tendency to become more liquid like (oil?).
