The texture is perfect—light enough to glide on like an oil but it sinks in and leaves skin soft instead of greasy. I love that it’s free of parabens and phthalates, so I don’t worry about using it daily on my hands and elbows.

I’ve tried a lot of balms that claim multipurpose but end up greasy or heavy—this one actually sinks in nicely while still leaving that silky slip for massage. The fact that it’s paraben-free and phthalate-free was the deciding factor for me, and my skin feels soft hours after, not tacky.

I was skeptical about a balm that does double duty, but it really holds up as both a pre-massage oil and a post-shower moisturizer. The paraben-free formula leaves my skin soft without that greasy film, and a little goes a long way.
