Thanks for letting us know to moisturize before the application my cheeks are quite dry. I love natural products to treat my body because of chemical free ingredients that is usually safe for daily use. 100% natural brands such as Omved, Kamaayurveda, Forestessentials, TBS etc. Omved PROTECTIVE Face Moisturiser is my favorite as it keeps my skin hydrate all day long. The other brands are good but little bit expensive though. Thanks for sharing!
