This was great for my sensitive skin, it didn't burn or sting at all, as opposed to most other moisturizers. I did notice it kind of staying on top of my skin feeling a bit thick and greasy, but that's not necessarily a bad thing especially if you have dry skin.
I picked this up because my skin is a moody diva - extremely sensitive and prone to both eczema and acne, which can make it pretty angry. I like that it has a minimal ingredient list and excludes a lot of ingredients that are known irritation triggers for me. However, I don't find it to be moisturizing enough on its own, so I need to pair it with a hydrating serum and an occlusive on top. Also, I find that it pills quite a bit on me, pehaps due to the shea butter, and I don't love that it contains a silicone.
