      The best lotion

      I have been using this lotion for years, and I have never been able to find another that measures up. My skin is very sensitive and reactive, but this lotion is the solution to most, if not all, of my issues. It is worth every penny!

      My son’s skin had terrible acne but also was terribly dry. A combination of this lotion and the ace facial soaps from this line has totally saved his skin!!

      Really solid moisturizer

      What is the importance of moisturizer? Well, after years of going without it I can tell you it fortifies the skin barrier and makes it more resistant to breakouts or irration above all over things. It lends itself to help sunscreen although not as important, going on before.

      It works everywhere but my cheeks and nose (many things do not, the only thing I have found to be nano zinc non comedogenic elta md physical/mineral sunscreen which also tints my fair complexion and adds to moisturizer on the rest of my face.

      Will just go with this til runs out and go with st2 from now on.

      One of my favorite Renee Rouleau products!

      I love this light lotion. I use it every day under my sunscreen and makeup. It is great for post procedure work, too.
