The active ingredients in Bear Cream are from a plant extract. Depending on a person’s skin pH there can be more or less residue that is left after the cream dries and the active constituents have absorbed.
It is best to allow the cream to dry on the skin before covering with clothing. This will reduce the transfer to the clothes.
