Can I use this on my face or is it only for the body?

The product is described as a body ointment for very dry, rough, and overworked skin. While some people with extremely dry facial skin might consider using such balms cautiously, it is generally not recommended for the face, especially for the eye area. Facial skin is more delicate and has a higher density of sebaceous glands; applying a dense, occlusive body balm could feel too heavy and potentially lead to discomfort or clogged pores for many skin types.

If you wish to use a rich product on dry facial patches (like around the nose or cheeks in winter), it is safer to choose a facial cream or balm specifically formulated for that area. As with any new skincare product, and particularly one this rich, it is best to perform a patch test on a small area of your inner arm before wider use. If any irritation appears, stop use. Consult a specialist before use if you have chronic skin conditions, are pregnant, breastfeeding, or on medication.
