Stewart, what WOULD you do without me?!  
die lonely & homeless, I suppose
 
Yes, it seems ok as an all round general moisturiser, although it has a big water content so won't be SUPER intensively moisturising, if you have severe cracking but otherwise I'm sure its fine.

We can't be 100% sure of the full ingredients ... as it lists only the 'Key' ingredients, which often means the only ones that sound good & that they want you to know about ... because the unique gum extracts derived from conifers aren't actually in the ingredient list  :-? ... so hopefully thats not pine tar!

A little expensive for what it is - water, a bit of sunflower oil with pine cones ...   ... still an interesting website, I think they do a shampoo for us as well.
