vitamin b5 body moisturizer

I love this moisturizer! It's been a constant in our skincare routine since I discovered it in a NYC hotel almost a decade ago.

From their website, it is an "intensive and residue-free body moisturizer scientifically synthesizes natural vitamin b5 and soothing bergamot extract with absorbent fatty acids for performance. Naturally hydrates and ph balances all skin types, unlike traditionally greasy, pore-clogging oils and wax and silicone fillers. No slick or slippery false sense of moisture. A nourishing treatment that eliminates wait-time for dressing. Natural fragrance and color."

We always buy the tubes because the product is so thick, the last ounce or so is very hard to remove from the pump dispenser. Having resorted to cutting the bottle open to get the last of the moisturizer out, I'd rather be able to get every last drop without destroying the container. Do your skin a favor and get a tube of this wonderful stuff!
