I need some suggestions on a moisturizer. I just ordered the regimen kit, and as it has bp in it I need a really hydrating lotion. I used bp through proactiv and it made my skin sooo dry. I thought I had a good lotion (I am using Eucerin Daily Protective). It works well when I'm not using bp, but as soon as I do use bp this lotion doesn't cut it. Any suggestions would greatly be appreciated!!

It sounds like you want/need something thicker and more moisturizing than what the "lightweight" lotions provide. Therefore i would suggest something petrolatum based. Aveeno's Daily Moisturizing comes to my mind, but really anything petrolatum based will provide a good moisturizing barrier.

I've been looking into many including Aveeno. I've also heard mixed reviews of cetaphil, ceraVe, Olay and Neutrogena

I think Cetaphil lotion is very moisturizing. I have really oily skin so the lotion is enough for me, if you have dry skin and live on a colder place, I suggest going for the Cetaphil cream. It is way thicker and creamier but just as good and won't break you out. It lasts you a while if you get the big container too so it comes our fairly cheap.
