Do I recommend it?

Yes, but with limitations for those with super dry skin types.

Why do I commend it?

I highly recommend it because:
a)   I love the pump packaging. It’s travel friendly and hygienic
b)   I love the subtle fragrance that is non-irritating
c)   Blends instantly without leaving any greasy residue
I am absolutely in love with the fragrance of this moisturizer and it is slightly more moisturizing than the White Musk Libertine one. I love how easily it blends in my skin and leaves no greasy residue behind. Highly recommended to all those looking for moisturizing non-greasy body lotion that doesn’t make their clothes sticky after use.
