Overall Bottom Line: Overall, I loved the product. With its soothing scent and smooth finish, it was comfortable to wear all day. I didn’t feel greasy or oily and nothing transferred to my clothing. Based on the price point, this is a great product to have at home to apply for yourself and for young children as all of the ingredients are safe. (Note: I’d still consult a physician just in case of any allergies).
