Although I cannot give this a 5 stars because I still have crepey skin, I must say it helps make your skin look much better. Considering I am 68 years old and was not expecting a miracle, the first time I applied the balm it was an immediate change in the look of my skin. I no longer have the white dry lines all over my knees and legs. The balm is not oily and feels really good on your skin. You can see that the balm appears to go deeper into your skin. I love the balm…. Just don't love my (now much softer) crepey skin.
