Beyond the listing
Parents and reviewers report mixed experiences with the tear-free claim. While some found it gentle and moisturizing, others—including the main video reviewer—experienced significant eye burning despite the tear-free label, suggesting the product may not live up to that promise for all children. One adult reviewer praised the moisturizing and gentle formula for sensitive skin.
Holds up elsewhere

Comes up as a drawback
