I use this on my face when my skin is very dry (I am eczema prone), and it does do a good job of providing some relief for that. I do feel that it could do with being a little bit thicker and more nourishing, but that is just my personal preference. It is a good basic moisturiser for extra dry skin in winter

What is this used for and how is it being used?

Very nice soft cream! The cream is not that thick and absorbs quickly. So nice when you get out of the house. I use it as a day cream. Purchased in pharmacies in France, also very nicely priced! No distinct scent, so a pleasant all-round cream!
