I use this on the lower half of my legs as they are so dry and itchy but this has helped enormously. It is absorbed very quickly and leaves no stickiness afterwards as some do. You can feel the difference after the first application as it calms and soothes the skin and stops it from itching so much. After a few days the difference is quite noticeable, the skin on my legs looks so much healthier, no more cracks or scaling and they feel moisturised as well, so much smoother.

I was amazed that this cream kept my face moisturised all day. A pea-sized amount was enough for my face. This would be perfect for anyone who has dry skin, especially during the winter season. I usually get excessive dry patches over my eye and for the last week, it hasn't appeared. I would gladly use this as a whole body moisturiser and not just on my face. It has a lovely subtle fragrance and is not greasy. Would highly recommend.

Good coverage very thick.

I had an opportunity to test a sample of Balneum cream a few days ago and I was amazed to see how much it improved my terribly dry and cracked hands! I felt the difference immediately after the first use, my skin was much smoother and after few days also softer, restored, cracks that I had before disappeared. I can see and feel a big difference. I didn´t notice any irritation. Balneum helped me a lot and I will keep using it!

I was very impressed with this cream. I suffer from mild eczema on my body in patches and on my face. This cream definitely improved the appearance and feel of the dry patches and in addition to this, it hugely lowered the amount of itchiness I had. I would highly recommend this product to friends and family. It felt light on my skin, was a good consistency, the smell was neutral and it absorbed very quickly into my skin.

Was surprised at how well Balneum worked. I've tried many other creams but Balneum is by far the best. Smells nice, goes on smoothly and my skin feels so soft. I'm very happy with it.

I found the Balneum cream very useful and with promising results. It managed to moisture the skin from the whole body and the most promising results were seen on my elbows. I struggle a lot with the skin on my elbows and this cream actually helped ease the itchiness and thickness. The skin on my hands looks very healthy and feels very smooth. I totally recommend it for the whole body though. Helps a lot with the itchiness and moisturises almost perfectly, not leaving any annoying residues or white colour.

It’s quite a nice cream. Fairly light; goes on nicely then takes a few minutes to soak in fully. Three stars are because I prefer products without glycol & paraffin. It would be better with some essential oils in it as it doesn’t have any odour.

This cream was lovely to use. It went on easily and absorbed into my skin quickly leaving no sticky patches. My skin is much better and the dry, scaly, itchy patches have gone.

Moisture-rich hand cream, it absorbs quickly into the skin but leaves a slight residue, this, however, does disappear after a while. I have particularly sensitive hands which at the moment are being exacerbated by the hand gels and additional washing I have to do at work, I used the cream on shift and it did help to keep them from getting too sore. I will look to purchase this.

I suffer from psoriasis so I need something to help with my skin as it just feels really dry and itchy. This has made a significant difference in calming the itchiness down and moisturising my skin too. The texture is nice as well as its not sticky. Will definitely be purchasing a bigger size once I run out.

I am not sure that I can extend my review to one hundred words but what I can say is that your product appears to be most efficacious. It is also non-greasy in its application which is most welcome.

Kelvin (Oct 20) 5.0/5

This cream sinks in well, leaving a silky smooth finish, making it pleasant to use. Unlike some creams, it is non-greasy and lightweight. It gives good protection from dryness and is soothing and non-irritating. I don't suffer from eczema, but I would imagine that it would be good for that. For general use, it will be good for using on hands in the winter to prevent dryness from cold weather and central heating. As well as any dry patches all over, it acts as an effective foot moisturiser. I'm not sure whether it would be suitable for facial use, but I may try it to see.

Margaret (Oct 20) 5.0/5

I was pleasantly surprised with this cream, as I’m so used to my usual one. It made my skin feel soft to touch and doesn’t feel too greasy like others I have tried. I will definitely consider changing from my normal cream to this one, especially for my hands which are my most affected area of itchy dry skin. I’m happy with the results from this cream and would definitely recommend.

Tracey (Oct 20) 5.0/5

It was ok but not great. I used this cream on my feet as these are extremely dry. The cream did exactly what most creams do, it seemed to work in the first 3 days but on day 5 it was back to dry skin. So will not be using this again.
