OK, I have very dry skin. I am always looking for products to help with this problem and have tried a lot of products from brands like Jack Black and Kiehl's. The common complaint is that they can leave your skin moisturized but greasy. When I saw the description as "Oil Free" I decided to take a chance. I did a little experiment - I put the Baxter product on one side of my face and my regular product on the other and went about my day. To my surprise, the Baxter side felt less "tight" and dry than the other side - the one with a product that has been working OK for me for a while. Also, it did this without leaving a greasy or oily residue. Like I said, a surprise.
