ProsAs someone who absolutely adored the original Real Barrier Extreme Cream, even buying it for my family, I tried this new product as soon as it was released!
Key differences from the original Extreme Cream:
The original was only usable in winter, but this one:
1. Absorbs much more smoothly
2. Doesn't leave a sticky residue, improving the overall feel
3. Has a much more pleasant scent (which was a common complaint before)
These three main drawbacks have been perfectly addressed in this new cream.
I always thought products with 5% panthenol would have a sticky texture, but this one isn't sticky at all! It applies so smoothly and leaves your skin feeling hydrated. I found myself reaching for it often.
The scent is a subtle, aromatic fragrance that isn't overwhelming at all. And it doesn't contain any harmful fragrances! It's so mild that it won't bother anyone - a huge improvement in terms of scent preference.
While the Extreme Cream was hard to recommend for non-dry skin types, this product seems suitable for oily, combination, and dry skin types across all seasons! It's truly an all-season, daily moisturizer.
If the Extreme Cream was like a warm, puffy winter coat, this Moisture Cream is like a soft, cozy cardigan - perfect for everyday use!
ConsI came to write a review because I remembered how much I liked it, only to find out it's been discontinued... Why would they discontinue such a great product? So disappointing!
