Pros:it leaves my skin looking soft and dewy, without feeling oily and makes my skin glow
Cons:none
Bottom Line:the first two weeks of using this lotion it worked great, then on the third week i started geting pimples on my forehead and nose,i decided to still stick with cetaphil to see if it was only a temporary thing. After a week the lotion returned to working great again I've been using it for over five years now and I rarely ever get pimples anymore! I love this stuff!

Pros:moisterizes very well, comes in a pretty big bottle compared to others, contains SPF 15
Cons:a little thick and may be greasy
Bottom Line:works great for me, i had tried neutrogena healty skin lotion with AHA and that actually made my skin worse, i couldn't smile without having my skin around my mouth flake up, then i tried Dove face lotion with SPF 15 and it worked but only with a lot of it, so i then tried this and it works great. It takes a little bit longer to absorb into your skin and it may look a little greasy, but what moisterizer doesn't? I just wait a little while after applying it and gentely dab my face with a tissue and my face looks and feels great!!!

Pros:Moisterized well enough. Cheaper then the others available. Did not flake with BP cream, unless rubbed.
Cons:Left my skin feeling/looking greasy and sticky. Noicable shine to it. Thick and a little difficult to spread. Made my skin darker?
Bottom Line:Would only recommend this because of the options available. Someone commented that I looked like a I had a tan while using this product. Ok for the regimen, but other then that, would not recommend it.
Recommended:Yes
Usage:Peter has used this item for about a month.
Price Paid:10.50

Pros:Lack of scent.
Cons:Must balance how much to put on perfectly
Bottom Line:I like this product. It has sun block and if I use it sparingly (1 pump for face and top of neck), it moisturizes without leaving an oily feeling. Pretty good.
Recommended:Yes
Usage:Thomas has used this item for an inconsistent period of time.

Pros:It has sunscreen and is made with a convenient pump.
Cons:It made my skin burn after use. It's also quite expensive for such a small bottle.
Bottom Line:I read the good reviews so I decided to try it along with the Cetaphil cleanser. I only used it for a couple of weeks. I used it at around the same time I started to use Retin-A, which made my skin break out pretty badly. I don't know if the lotion had any particularly adverse effects on my skin, but it did burn (which is kind of strange for a lotion for sensitive skin). The burning sensation only lasted for a few minutes, but since other lotions I've tried don't have that effect I decided to discontinue use.
Recommended:No
Usage:Kat has used this item for a few weeks.

The lotion definitely moisturizes very well. For some reason, it burned my skin even though it is recommended for sensitive skin (which I have). It irritated my eyebrow area and burned for hours after I put it on. It is also wicked expensive. I've actually used Lubriderm Advanced Therapy Creamy Lotion for Extra-Dry Skin and was pretty happy with it. It claims all the same things - non-comedogenic, non-greasy, absorbs quickly, and it does NOT have a greasy feel at all. I recommend this for people with sensitive skin. It's distributed by Pfizer Consume Healthcare.

I bought this because it was recommened on here and when I saw the price I really should have stayed away. $14 for 120mL and ONLY SPF15 is just crazy. PROS: 1. No smell 2. The pump is handy somewhat 3. Works good on dry skin if you're using BP 4. Nice and light on face 5. It absorbs into the skin in seconds which I really like. CONS: 1. Price is insane. Yesterday I bought Neutrogena sunblock lotion with SPF30 and it was $2.50 for 118mL!!! (non-comedogenic, oil-free, fragrance-free yada yada) 2. Because of the pump you get a dried up chunk every time 3. At first use it made my skin shiney and greasy 4. After continuous use it only makes my skin slightly shiney (which does not mean greasy OR oily) so this is both a pro and con. I WOULD recommend this to anyone that likes to pay 10-15 dollars for a tiny bottle of moisturizer but I myself will never buy this again, the price being 90% of the reason.

It's alright, but not good. It leaves my face looking shiny and greasy. This was my second choice since Eucerin Skin Renewal Day Lotion isnt being made anymore, and it hasnt done better. It only moisterizes my face for about 3 hours then my skin gets flaky around my mouth/chin. And its made me get some acne.

I really like this moisturizer! I had moderate acne, and now it has gotten much milder by use of this moisturizer. I have been on the CSR for over six months now, and no other moisturizer has done for me what Cetaphil did. My skin feels smooth to the touch, all redness is gone, and my pimples are much more rare now. Everybody got different skin, and therefore everybody reacts differently. I have oily skin, and this moisturizer worked great for me. Give it a try, it might be your rescue! Unfortunately it sometimes takes a while and some money to find the product that will work for you, but when you do find it, it was all so worth it!
