I received these lovely balms as a gift from my mother's last Christmas. It is said to protect and keep your skin moisturized and very suitable for dry skin. And it works very well I must say! I applied a generous amount over my body every morning, and it stays on till evening the very least. I am planning to buy more of these as they work magic on my skin, seeing that I'm of a dry skin type. It's also doing a great job moisturizing my hands. They feel softer now seeing as I'm a full-time housewife, and I used my hands quite often to do many things.
