Disappointing
I was quite surprised with this product, considering I’ve been a big fan of elta md for a long time. I am currently using a retinoid for acne and need a very heavy duty, but non irritating moisturizer. This looked perfect, but upon first use this product appears to be no more than an overpriced jar of Vaseline. It pains me to say this, but this moisturizer is just a flop. It goes on nicely, but I’m currently sitting in bed after having applied it a couple hours ago and it is still sitting on top of my skin like thick layer of grease. It has not proven to be “intensive” in its moisture, as my skin has been incredibly more dry and sensitive the past week. I don’t want to waste money so I guess I will try to keep using it. But beware- you’d probably be better off buying a tub of petroleum jelly and slathering it on your face every night.
