What They Say: "Our oil-free, residue-free body moisturizer scientifically synthesizes natural vitamin b5 and soothing bergamot extract with absorbent fatty acids for performance. Naturally hydrates and ph balances all skin types, unlike traditionally greasy, pore-clogging oils and wax and silicone fillers. No slick or slippery false sense of moisturize. A nourishing treatment that eliminates wait-time for dressing. Natural fragrance and color. Easily integrated into daily maintenance and prevention regimen."
Jen's Experience:As soon as the air gets cooler and drier, my skin starts getting drier and I have to break out some serious moisturizer for my body. I like the shea butter moisturizers because they seem to last a really long time. What I don't like is how they don't absorb into my skin quickly (if at all) so my clothes seem to stick to my skin.
Well this year, there's a new moisturizer in my cabinet to cure my dryness and ashy legs: Malin + Goetz's incredible Vitamin B5 Body Moisturizer. After I smooth it on, I can feel my skin drinking it up. It makes my skin feel so soft and it calms the redness that often accompanies dry skin. And it really lasts! If I put it on before I go to work, when I undress at night, my skin is smooth with just a trace of the moisturizer itself protecting my skin.
And the scent is absolutely wonderful. Not overpowering, or sweet or cloying. Just a very clean smelling, citrus-y scent that will inspire you to wear it all over your body.

Malin + Goetz launched their product line in March of 2004 to rave reviews in a stunning array of publications. Matthew Malin (veteran of Kiehl's) and Andrew Goetz (longtime design professional) designed this unisex line of skin care products to use gentle ingredients that are effective for all skin types.
Their cleansers are amino-acid based, so they aren't drying like traditional detergent-based cleansers. By using fatty-acids and fatty alcohols, they've created moisturizers that are oil-free and residue-free. Whether you have dry or oily skin, or a combination of both, their skin care products will clean and moisturize gently and naturally.
In addition to their current window at Barney's New York, Malin + Goetz's facial scrub was most recently featured in the October 2005 issue of Oprah Magazine. But don't get the impression these products are just for the ladies. New York Times Magazine's fall fashion issue suggested buying these products for the man in your life, and back in June, their colognes were featured in Cargo (the male version of Lucky).
With their natural ingredients and botanical fragrances, it's easy to see why Malin + Goetz is getting so much great publicity. This is a line you'll want to try.

I've bought a number of products based on your reviews and enjoyed every one of them, and this sounds pretty much perfect for my skin. So I shall look forward to the day Malin + Goetz start to ship outside the US!
