Overall Impression: Before you label this as a bad review I invite you to look from the point of view as a this product just didn't work for me.  This is an objective not subjective review.  A little background on my skin:  it's very unpredictable when it comes to fragranced products.  Sometimes my skin can tolerate it,  or it starts off tolerating it but after continuous use irritation occurs.  I honestly think it has more to do with what the fragrance component is made from.  The reaction tends to immediate dryness, flakiness, or itching.  This product didn't dry my skin out but it did cause the flakiness but that's all.  The odd part is I used the shaving butter crème and the skin healing elixir with no issues.  It just goes to show that every product is not for everyone and this particular product just isn't for my skin.  It's all good though...I still got love for Shea Moisture. ❤️
