It's not expensive even when you buy it over here. It's called Cica Biafine. It's rather unglamorous and functional looking...but it really works! Very rich, yet soaks right in. Makes hands literally baby soft. It is lightly scented, but the scent is pleasant and fades quickly.<br />The Biafine lip balm is amazing too!
