Winter came and went and with it my skins ability to recover fully the effects of the harsh winter on my skin. I tried several products that gave me relief and moisturise my skin all of 2 hours-not very helpful on the pocket! I tried E45 and will never look back! It is intensively moisturising and my skin seemed softer and smoother after a short while. You can literally feel the difference immediately! It is quite pricey compared to other creams of the same volume but none other does the job quite like E45! it is hypo-allergenic and allergy tested which is perfect for my sensitive skin with no burning sensation when applied to rough and dry skin!
