Just ok
I got this to use as a post-procedure healing cream, but it actually made my face red upon application, which seemed odd.

I won’t buy again
It’s seems to moisturize just fine. I don’t think it does much to fight against fine lines/wrinkles. It’s light and you don’t need to use much but it does burn my skin.

It was... fine
Maybe I expected too much when it said it would renew my skin barrier? I was expecting an intense moisturizer, but it felt like an OTC lotion. I mean, it was fine as a nightly moisturizer in the spring/summer, but this definitely isn't the product you want if you're looking to help very dry skin, skin that's been overly retinoided, etc , which is what I needed. I love this brand for their SPF, but for the price, I think there are better barrier renewal products.

Didn't work for me
I am a fan of EltaMD. I use their facial sunscreen every day. And I really wanted to like this product, but it didn't work well with some of my other products (serums) underneath. It crumbled. That being said, I did use it on my neck and it worked just fine.

Not sure
I expected more. For the price I think I will try a different brand.

ELTA MD barrier renewal complex
This product takes a while to absorb into the skin. I haven't seen dramatic results but I do have aged skin, over 60 yrs.

Not enough hydration for my skin
I really love EltaMD sunscreens, it is the best on the market for me. But Elta's moisturizers are not for me. I tried PM Therapy and Barrier Renewal and both of them were not moisturizing enough for my combination skin. This cream has got wonderful ingredients but didn't work for me, unfortunately.

Perioral Dermatitis
This product was recommended by my dermatologist. At first it really did seem to be helping the perioral dermatitis I get around my nose and mouth but as we continue to get into the colder winter months and after using it for over a month I’m unfortunately not seeing much of a difference. I also notice that I have been getting what seems to be large red pumps that feel like acne or maybe a zit will come through. The bumps hurt to the touch and then disappear as quickly as they came. You can barely see them. It’s strange! I didn’t experience anything like this with the skincare line that I was using. It’s hard to say if it’s actually repairing my skin. Perhaps it’s too early to tell!

Not sure...
I'm not noticing anything particularly great. I'll use for awhile longer. I do not like the smell and that might be the reason I stop using this. Too pricey to not like everything about it.

It is fine, but have not purchased again
This was purchased in the winter when I was struggling with dry skin. It works fine but has not been a repeat purchase.

More moisture please
I have dry sensitive skin and did not find this to be at all moisturizing and a bit irritating.

Okay
I wanted to like this knowing it has ceramides in it. But sadly it was not moisturizing enough for me. All moisturizers from Elta I tried are not moisturizing enough for my combination skin, even in the summer, probably because they are all oil-free, and my skin needs some lipid-based product.

Great product but smells
I love EltaMD products and use them daily. I have been using the Barrier Renewal Complex and I like the way my skin feels. However I cannot stand the smell of the product so I have gone to using at night only to avoid smelling the product all day. If it didn't have the odor then I would give this product 5 stars.
