Pros:

- SPF protection
- Goes on smooth
- Decent job preventing flakes
- Has not caused breakouts
- Goes on shiny but dries

Cons:

- The dispenser is not good for traveling
- Could moisturize more
- Burns if it gets in your eyes (like all sunscreen)

I really wanted SPF in my moisturizer, so I got this one even though acne.org says it can sometimes cause breakouts. I wanted to give it a try. This moisturizer is pretty thick, and it does keep my flakes at bay. It could be a bit more moisturizing, though. I don't notice a whole lot of shine once this product dries. I have not had any breakouts since using it. DO NOT put it anywhere near your undereye or eyelid area. Inevitably, some will get in your eye and it REALLY STINGS. It does not sting on my face, but boy does it irritate the eyes.

Pros:

- Light Weight
- Very Moisturizing
- SPF 15
- Doesn't Clog Pores
- Fragrance Free
- Helped Reduce Dry Patches on Skin
- It has a Pump

Cons:

- None that I can think of

After having a bad experience with Eucerin Everyday Protection Face Lotion I decided to use this to help my dry face recover. I like this product a lot because it really moisturized my skin and helped reduce the dry patches on my face. It also has SPF which also helps with acne because it protects your skin from the sun which helps reduce hyperpigmantation and worsening of acne. It also didn't cause any acne as far as i could. It really was great for my sensitive dry skin.

Pros:

None

Cons:

Left my skin oily
BURNS!
Left my nose and undereyes (where I applied most) very red and sensitive

I wanted a good, gentle SPF for my face that was light but effective. I got this product because I found Cetaphil to be a reliable brand. I bought this with high hopes, but the first day I used it, it made my skin very sensitive in those areas. I also tried using it to take off makeup (using a tissue and water) and it stung very badly. And don't get me started on how damaged my undereye skin was after smoothing this on. I wish I had good things to say, but I can't.

Pros:

well I was looking for a good moisturizer with and spf, and I guess it does moisturize...and it has an Spf....

Cons:

it made my whole face Shinier than heck!!!!! and it burns!!!! when I put something on my face and it starts burning that much I don't want to use it again! moisturizers are supposed to be calming and nice.....but beware it felt like I put acid or something on my face, and it made it red:( I had to wash it off

I would never buy this product ever again. it sucks. when the cetaphil people designed this, they did not keep gentleness in mind:(

Pros:

Moisturizes

Cons:

Burns

I bought this and cetaphil daily face wash together to see if it could help my acne. Well, I washed with the face wash and I loved the way my skin felt. I put on the moisturizer on next. Once I started putting it on my face began burning. I thought it would pass, but the burning kept going for about an hour. Maybe my skin was too sensitive for this product, but I was not a fan.

Pros:

- light, non greasy, yet moisturizing
- fragrance free, with SPF
- calms redness, does not clog pores
- did not make T-zone oily
- good moisturizer for day & night

Cons:

- none that i can think of

I've used this moisturizer from the age of 15 to now being 19. It is an amazing lotion/moisturizer, however when I did have moderately severe acne for a year and 4 months I had to alternate between this lotion and the daily facial moisturizer from spectro jel (for blemish prone skin). Also, several dermatologist have suggested that although the lotion comes with the spf of 15, it's best to put on a sunscreen with spf 25 and up on top of any moisturizer to prevent hyperpigmentation. But overall it's kept my face consistent in terms of having it moisturized and T-zone grease free! I recommend this to anyone who's looking for a good moisturizer.

Pros:

Does it's job - moisturizes
Has SPF
Really is fragrance free

Cons:

It congeals on the pump no matter how careful you are, which makes it this weird globby stuff blocking normal flow of lotion
Is very shiny on areas that tend to be oily for some reason

It is a decent moisturizer that does not clog my pores or irritate my skin; however it does make my nose which is naturally more oily than the rest of my face very very shiny, I mean extremely noticeably shiny. And I don't like using makeup much so that's a very big disappointment. Also like I said in the cons, it congeals when exposed to air and becomes this sticky glob of lotion that feels gross and blocks the pump until you take it off. The SPF feature is excellent though. It's worth a try.

Pros:

-moisturized well
-has spf

Cons:

I'm going to say exactly what everyone else has said. This moisturizer burns!!! My skin began to severely burn directly after applying and then continued to have a burning sensation through-out the day... It is now itchy! It also made my skin very shiny.

Bottom line, I will not ever buy this product again. I've heard really good things about cetaphil and I'm sad to find that this moisturizer doesn't meet my standards.
