The white cream is light and melts on the skin instantly, no feeling of grease and oily whatsoever, smooth sailing on the skin :) Moist? Yes! Sticky? No!

The smell, wonderful! It's sweet, tangy, and delicious. My husband loves it too, the fruit brings us a sweet-tempered aroma, like Christmas itself. The gentle moisturizing effect suitable to be used here as well (in tropical land) but I don't think it would be the correct item for dry climate and those with severely dry skin. So the scent is definitely the highlight with an undemanding level of hydration. A dainty addition for my noel collection.
