ETA: ingredient list
MSM (Methylsulfonylmethane) is a source of naturally-occurring sulfur. This popular dietary supplement has now been formulated into a nutrient-riched, moisturizing cream. We've blended soothing emollients, such as Jojoba Oil and Sweet Almond Oil, with Collagen, Aloe Vera, and the Vitamins E, A and D. This combination of beneficial vitamins, oils and herbs works together to soften, smooth and moisturize the skin.

Caledula Officinalis Extract (Calendula Extract). Camellia
