My family has dryer skin. So, lotion is used on the entire body. The thought of putting something all over with chemicals, artificial scents and a lot of other junk makes me uneasy. This lotion is not only natural, but alba is just an amazing product line. The lotion soaks in, is not greasy, this "original" has no real smell to it (my husband loves that) and it really moisturizes. We have tried a lot of different products, but this one was our winner. My mom's dermatologist recommended it to her and she to me. The everyday price iHerb has is the best I have found anywhere.
