This cream is amazing if you have dry patches. It's an absolute must-have, along with hemorrhoid cream for bags under your eyes. No, I'm not joking. That's an insider secret but shhhh! Don't tell...

I use this for cystic acne that hasn't come to a head yet. It works great at reducing the size of the bumps and within a week the spots are usually gone and don't really leave much of a mark behind.

A week ago I switched to the Vaseline Intesive Mositure cream for a face cream, upon reading rave reviews on here. Unfortunately for me, it broke me out incredibly bad - to a point I've never seen...
