The main difference in the Moisturizing Cream and Baby Moisturizing Cream formula is that the Baby Moisturizing Cream has a paraben free preservative system. We are working on updating the Moisturizing Cream to use a similar paraben free preservative in the near future. We recommend use of the Moisturizing Cream for ages 13 and older.

Lightweight and Oil Free
I like this product because it is lightweight, water resistant, and applies smoothly. I purchased the 2 oz. size which fits nicely in my purse. The reason why I bought it was because it was highly rated in a national magazine and was said to be invisible and not leave that white residue that most ...

I had to wash it off with an oil cleanser after about 15 minutes because my skin couldn't breathe due to t...

Great substitute for lead foundation
The white cast was so bad I could be playing Queen Elizabeth the first. You can see near the corner of my mouth where I missed a spot, and compare to my chest how much a cast this has. Feels waxy and will not blend.
HORRIBLE SUNSCREEN
HORRIBLE WHITE CAST DO NOT BUY. WILL MAKE YOU LOOK LIKE A SILVERBACK GORILLA.
Leaves white cast
I wore this to a water park. I let it sit for about 30minutes and once my face got wet you could see white splotches all lver my fave and legs. Its like the color added to the suncreen just melted off.
Horrible rash
Take a pass on this one. Looks white and gave my daughter and me a rash. Mine lasted for well over a week and was incredibly itchy and inflamed. Nope.
White cast
Doesnt absorb well and leaves a white cast for the entire duration of wear.
