I am using Cetaphil SPF 15 moisturizer. I agree, it is kind of greasy to be honest, but totally works.

Has anyone here tried the NEW Cetaphil® UVA/UVB Defense SPF 50 Moisturizer yet? If so, please share your experiences here.

I just got it. I like it, a lot. I was outside a lot over the past two days. My whole family was burnt to a crisp except for me. It's also nice because it gives you a little more moisturizer too so you don't have to put as much on in the morning.

Awesome, I now have a reason of getting it for my Accutane course.

Plus summer is coming, if you are on Accutane and you are outgoing, I suggest you get it!

I’ve been using the cleanser Dan sells the entire course (on day 178 now) and I’ve been fine. My skin did get kinda dry and flaky but I attribute that to the accutane shutting down my oil glands and not the cleanser, as I am still using the cleanser now and am fine.

For moisturizer, when I was flaking a lot during months 2-3, I would use Dans moisturizer during the day (I put concelear on over it) and at night I would use aquaphor which basically put a layer of protection on your face. U can definitely feel it caked on there, but it was nighttime anyway, so it didn’t matter.

My mom (works at a Derm office) got me some Cerave, which I’ve seen someone else on here mention and I am using that now. But I only use it where my nose meets my cheeks and around my mouth.

Somedays, I go without washing and/or mosturzing and I do fine. Its awesome!!!!

Okay so i need some opinions out there. I've found a good cleanser but not iam in desperate need of a good moisturizer.

Cetaphil is too greasy,
Cerave seems to make me really shiny and it's on ly okay...
neutrogena sensiative skin stings and looks greasy..

what do you guys use that has been awesome and why....

thanks.
