Cons

  • Similar in texture and appearance to Vaseline, with a very greasy, sticky feeling
  • Has a strong medicinal, chemical, pine odor that may be unpleasant for sensitive users
  • Feels greasy, sticky, and uncomfortable on the skin, with a suffocating sensation
  • Can liquefy at high temperatures (over 90°F), affecting storage
  • The product leaves a shiny, greasy residue that can cause glasses to slip off
  • Not suitable as a facial moisturizer due to its heaviness and stickiness
  • The balm is stiff and pulls on the skin during application
  • The product’s strong smell and texture may be ofutting for some users
  • Concerns over hygiene and authenticity due to lack of a seal and open packaging upon receipt
  • May be more appropriate for rougher skin areas like elbows and knees, not for sensitive or facial skin

Bottom Line

This balm is a long-standing, versatile moisturizer highly effective for dry, calloused skin and targeted healing. However, its thick, greasy texture and strong medicinal odor make it less ideal for facial use or those seeking a lighter, more pleasant experience. If you want a product with a lighter feel and less intense scent, you might consider a dedicated facial moisturizer. Conversely, if you're after a proven healing balm for hands, lips, or rough patches, this classic Elizabeth Arden formulation remains a reliable choice.
