I'm loving it
I've ordered a second one and it't my favorite product from Allies of Skin, perfect for sensitive skin. Like having the best glass of water, really refreshing and nice on your troubled skin. Can only recommend!

Simple but well executed
This definitely improves the health of my barrier when I use it consistently for a couple of weeks. As some other reviews say, it somehow manages a balance between being protective but breathable. This is has become my go-to night cream when not using the Allies retinal a few times a week. Perhaps expensive for it what it is, but I think it’s an elegant formulation that works.

Expensive
I love a lot of Allies products but this feels overpriced for what it is. Just a good basic barrier cream that you could find an alternative for much less money

Fantastic - transformed my skin!
I bought this product after I realised I’ve damaged my skin barrier and was in serious need of hydration. Before using this I was suffering from breakouts, dry flaky skin and dullness. After 5 days of using this at night alongside the Ren Barrier Elixer my skin has been transformed! I couldnt recommend it enough. I only use it at night so I can’t comment how it sits under make up but for me once a day is enough to see the benefits of this amazing product.

A miracle recovery balm!
Let me start by saying that my skin had never been drier than this past winter! I was getting quite worried because even an emollient from a very expensive dermatologist did not help. I bought this balm based on reviews and it did not disappoint! I use both morning and evening, it does pill under foundation (but not when I mix the balm with my spf before applying). I’ve also taken a star off for the pump mechanism that temporarily stops working shortly after first use and then splutters the balm out wasting product, until it starts working properly again(hope Allies are working to fix this). Other than that this is a dream thick texture ideal for colder times, which doesn’t break out my combination, sensitive & acne-prone skin.

Heavy duty night cream
My eczema-prone skin tends to become flaky and irritated if I’m heavy handed with my use of acid products, or when the seasons turn and the air becomes colder and drier. This heavy duty night cream acts as a barrier to protect and hydrate my skin, leaving it feeling refreshed and strengthened in the morning. Might not suit oily skin types though as this is a thick, intense night cream formulation.

One of my favourites
I love this and I am so sad that it has been out of stock for a while. I keep this around when my skin is unhappy. It hydrates, calms my skin down and helps reduce the size of spots. It’s quite thick but a small amount goes a long way. I use this at night and wake up with my skin looking less red and irritated.

Love it
I appreciate that this is a pricey item but you get what you pay for. I feel it really works on the days when my skin is irritated (I have dry/sensitive skin). Just to point out that you may think the pump isn’t working as the internal tube is pretty short (please fix this allies!), so you have to squeeze up the tube at the same time as pumping, which is annoying and why I have given this product 4 not 5 stars.

Absolute favourite
I love this cream. I use it at night because it’s quite thick in consistency but it works beautifully. My skin has felt so much better since using this and I’m almost finishing my second tube! A must have in my routine, especially when using retinols

A surprise staple in my routine
I saw the word balm and assumed that I wouldn't like this but how wrong I was. The texture is lovely and absorbs nicely into the skin without leaving a film, even on my combination skin. The brand advises that all of their products are applied to damp skin so I like to mist my skin just before this step and that also allows the cream to spread more evenly. I am a little bit obsessed with the smell too and I think the subtle scent of black cumin oil is very calming, making this a joy to use.
