“This moisturiser is lovely, it absorbs well into my skin while being thick enough to keep it well hydrated for a long time. It is very gentle for my sensitive combination skin.”
“I have used this product before..although it was a while ago and perhaps the formular has changed. I had an very bad reaction to this product which started almost immediately I applied. Very red burning sensation last lasted an hour or so.”

We would be unable to pin-point exactly the ingredient you are reacting to without an allergy test. It might be worth consulting your doctor to see if tests can be carried out to see if there is a general allergy.
We did make a small change to this product in 2019. However, the only change was to the preservative system – we replaced the blend of Sorbic acid, Salicylic acid and Benzyl alcohol in a base of Glycerin to a combination of Gluconolactone and Sodium benzoate.
We have not changed any of the other ingredients in this product, and it should be exactly the same in terms of performance. Likewise the viscosity should not be any different. It is therefore likely that you are reacting to the new preservative system.
