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:

-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...)

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:

Works very well when using benzoyl peroxide, Retinol A & AHA.
Reduced flakiness.

Cons:

None

It depends on your skin and ( mine is oily ) but has dried and flaked due to Benzoyl Peroxide wash. I would apply moisturizer and then touch my face and flakes would fall off.Not with Cetaphil, my skin looks refreshed and soft. It might also help that I used the Neutrogena Pore Refiner Wash the night before ( great exfoliator). Only use the 1 squirt that comes out when you first push down. No prob with oily appearance or feel.

Pros:

Spf protection, light, no odor

Cons:

pricey

Cetaphil products seem to cost a bit more than most of its competitors, however they live up to their advertising. It glides on smooth & being that it's light weight, it absorbs evenly into my skin. It doesn't have a greasy feeling & my skin feels soft.

Pros:

- great moisturizer
- plumps up skin and gives skin a nice tone

Cons:

- the taste ( if you get it on your lips by accident) ugggh!

I'm fairly new to moisturizers, never thought my oily skin needed a drink... but you don't water a plant with oil ! I've seen good results, but my skin is also 30 years old... maybe I wouldn't have reacted so well in my younger years. But I like this product.

Pros:

Does not make me break out, keeps skin moisturized throughout the day

Cons:

A little bit too expensive

I see that a lot of people have complained about it making their skin greasy. I've been using this lotion for about 5 years. At first it made my skin a little greasy. I also had bad acne at the time. Then I discovered oil wipes (clean&clear). If you put the lotion on and then use the oil wipes, your skin will be moisturized and non-greasy. I have also found that this is the only lotion that does not make me break out. I love it!

Pros:

Moisturizes well. Non-greasy for me. Gets rid of flakes caused by acne treatments.

Cons:

Burns really bad. Has a weird smell. Somehow manages to get in my eyes and mouth.

I have been using this moisturizer for about two years off and on. Its great except it smells and burns. It goes okay under makeup. And it has spf.

Pros:

Makes my face feel really soft and smooth. Smells pretty good. Has SPF 15. Didn't irritate my skin at all.

Cons:

A little pricey. If you put a lot on or don't rub it in well it can look a little greasy for a few hours.

Works great for me. Moisturizes and makes my face feel soft and smooth.
