FAQ
While this product is formulated to be noncomedogenic, its rich, oil-gel texture is best suited for dry or compromised skin. Oily skin types may find it too heavy.
It's primarily recommended for nighttime use due to its occlusive properties, which can make skin feel rich. However, if you have very dry skin, you might use a thin layer during the day.
Semi-occlusive means the product forms a layer on the skin that helps reduce water loss but still allows some breathability, unlike fully occlusive ingredients like pure petrolatum.
