Problem Skin from SF

Pros No sunscreen fragrance
light and easy to apply
never seemed that greasy
Cons minor stinging for the first few uses
made me break out!!!!
Bottom line I'm a huge cetaphil fan which is why it took me weeks to realize it was my new moisturizer that caused my worst break out in over 10 years!! two days after i stopped using it my skin is already getting back to normal.
Price paid $12.00

Pros -Great brand
-Doesn't clog pores
-Absorbs quickly
-Effective moisturizer
-SPF is great for day
-Frangrance free
-Soothes and hydrates my dry, sensitive skin
Cons -SPF, so you can't use it at night
-No added fragrance, so it doesn't smell pleasant
Bottom line I love this moisturizer! I use it every morning following the Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser. I have pretty sensitive skin, and most things make my face sting. This wonderful product actually doesn't sting at all, and I love it!
I actually like the consistency much more than the moisturizer I use at night, the regular Cetaphil moisturizer. That seems more like a lotion and takes a while to absorb, but this absorbs quickly (but efficiently... my skin is still very well hydrated) like a good moisturizer should.
I need higher SPF when the sun's really hot, but this is the perfect daytime moisturizer for me in the fall, winter, and early spring.

Pros Moisturizes skin, doesn't make my skin break out
Cons Stings my skin
Bottom line Sometimes it really stings when I put this stuff on! It always stings a little, but the second my skin gets a little extra sensitive, ouch. It does moisturize alright, but I just wish it wouldn't sting.
Price paid $7.75

Pros -It doesn't require a huge amount to do its job
-Works well to prevent flaky skin from my BP and BHA regimen.
-I can use it on top of my BP mask before I go to sleep to keep skin hydrated
-It has sunscreen to prevent acne caused by the sun.
Cons -Smells chemical (as others have stated)
-A little greasy if used too much. I usually put it on my face, wait for it to absorb deep into the skin, and then take a light, damp towel to pat away the oily top layer.
- Makes skin shiny sometimes, but this can be remedied with some water some soft cloth (towel, sweater, etc...)
Bottom line It works well at preventing my irritation, flakiness, and sandpaper texture caused by BP.
It has a slight smell, but I usually forget about it, and it is overpowered by other smells such as my shampoo, soap, deodorant, etc...

It's a good buy that will not clog pores, and helps to keep skin look healthy. Well for me at least, try other moisturisers to see what works for you.

Pros -moisturizes/hydrates very well

-good moisturizer to use when you're using products with benzoyl peroxide in them

-lightweight, so it's good for wearing under foundation

-not very expensive compared to many other moisturizers that lack the same benefits
Cons -does have a slightly chemical smell that lingers
Bottom line Overall, I'd definitely recommend this for hydrating skin that is being treated with benzoyl peroxide and other acne medications. It is a great solution for dealing with flaky skin that results from these drying products!

Pros Moisturizes pretty good.
Cons Looks a little oily, so you have to put it everywhere to make it match. Makes me breakout in cysts!
Bottom line Coincidence or not, I decided to try Cetaphil again for a week (it's winter) [I used to use it a year ago and my skin was BAD] and I began to break out the worst I have in quite a while..Once I quit Cetaphil they healed quite fast..I'd avoid at all costs..Neutrogena's moisturizers are much better..I'd suggest the AHA one.
