A heavy-duty occlusive moisturizer formulated with paraffinum liquidum, petrolatum, and panthenol to provide a protective barrier against moisture loss. It’s the ultimate thick, rich cream for when things feel genuinely parched or wind-burned. While it’s a classic for a reason, the density means it’s best reserved for very dry patches or as a targeted night treatment rather than a light daily base.

classic for a reason
It's a simple, effective moisturizer, but the scent is a bit strong for my sensitive nose.
