Pros

  • Infused with 5% panthenol plus zinc and madecassoside for barrier-support and calming

Cons

  • Can be too heavy or occlusive, leading to clogged pores and breakouts for oily or acne-prone skin
  • Reported to sting or irritate very sensitive or inflamed skin, especially freshly damaged barrier
  • Texture can pill or ball up when layered over gels or tretinoin, making layering tricky
