      Is this suitable for very dry body skin or would it be overkill?

      My dermatologist first recommended an imported brand, but this South African one does the same job for less.

      Been using this body for about a month now and my skin genuinely looks better. Not life-changing, but a solid addition to the routine.

      Moved to Polokwane last year and had to rebuild my whole routine around Polokwane's summer heat. This made the cut.

      Eczema-prone skin over here — this didn't trigger anything, which is rare for me.
