This has an interesting woodsy, sweet (very lightly carrot) smell that grows on you over time. Very, very thick and rich; good for extremely dry, winter skin, but not a mainstay for a basic moisturizer. But that's not what it's for. You don't need to use very much because of it's thickness, but I think eventually I ended up using it more as a lip balm. It sits on your skin for too long.

It does contain carrot seed oil, which is very good for healing skin - avocado oil as well. However, Burt's Bees often uses sodium borate (borax) as a preservative and an emulsifier, which some might find too harsh for very sensitive skin, along with grapefruit seed extract as a preservative too. Over time, I found these ingredients aggravated my skin. Not as great a product as I would like.

Burt's Continues to Disappoint

Very disappointing Night Creme. Very thick and waxy. Heavily fragranced. This was a gift otherwise I would feel ripped off.

At least it smelled good

I wanted to like this stuff. I really did. But my acne-prone skin couldn't handle it. It was too oily and made me break out. I give it 3 stars though because it smells good and I ended up using it as a hand cream instead. It worked well on my hands, but $12 is too much for me to pay for hand cream, so I won't be buying it again.
