NOTHING

I have dry skin. When I found something to work on my acne (Acnefree sensitive skin 3step) It dried my skin a little bit, and I decided to use this. It's wonderful. It leaves skin babysoft, Great under makeup, Doesn't clog my pores, and its great as a 30 minute gloppy mask to make your skin ultra soft. I swear my cetaphil, it is AMAZING. Really nice for us ladies when we shave our legs too :) Totally recommend

Pros:

Perfect. I always come back to this. Removes eye makeup easily without losing eyelashes in the process. Doesn't sting eyes. Gentle. Thick and moisturizing. The ONLY thing that worked for me on Accutane. Sometimes use this as a cleanser, too! Does not break me out. A year later, I still have just a little less than half of it left.

Cons:

Absolutely nothing.

This is perfect. The only thing that saved my chapped, split skin during Accutane was this. It is healing, soothing, and so wonderful. It is a real treat to put this on my skin. It feels exquisite. For $13, this is definitely worth it. I will always come back to this product.

Pros:

Really moisturises!

Cons:

On the thick side, gives white blotchy effect when applied.

It's a wonderful night cream! I mix it with some jojoba and I don't worry about my skin at all at night time. It is the perfect amount of moisturiser for night because it slowly seeps into your skin, and when you wake up the next day it has absorbed fully and is really supple! The only real downside is that it tends to make you look a bit greasy and blotchy, because the white cream does not absorb right away. But if you're like me and are serious about fighting your acne, you will disregard this in the pursuit of clear skin! I've been using this product for around 4 months now and I don't break out anymore! Yay!

Pros:

-VERY moisturizing
-Oil-Free
-Doesn't clog pores
-A lot of product for very cheap

Cons:

-No SPF

I am in love with this product. I have really dry, sensitive skin and I was hesitating wether or not to use a cream on my face. I used to use Clinique's Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion and it made my skin very flaky. Nothing made the flakes go away. So I decided to use this, and I am SO glad I did! My skin is softer than ever before, I never get flaky skin anymore. I rarely break out. It's a miracle worker! I highly recommend this product! :)

There's a trick to using this, read.
BEST EVER! I bought the generic version from Target and walmart - both good. Pat/Tap onto your face, don't rub or smear on to your face. Put a big gob in your palm, rub both hands together and tap tap tap pat pat all over your face that was treated with benzoly P. Works great, not oily and keeps skin from ever flaking. I only use the regimens benzoyl P and this. Had pretty bad acne for years until finally using this and neutrogena bar soap. 3 steps that really work.

Gets rid of flakes

Pros:

Gets rid of flakes
Non-comedogenic
Cheap

Cons:

Can make face greasy

After I had been on the regimen for several months, my face was still uncontrollably flakey. It was making me miserable. This got rid of the flakes! It's an extremely intense moisturizer, but is still non-comedogenic. At first I used it morning and night, then reduced it to just night because it made my face too oily during the day. At night, I mix a dime-sized amount of this with a very small amount of AHA from acne.org. It works wonders.

Pros:

It moisturizes dry skin extremely well.
It's great for sensitive skin.

Cons:

Rather heavy/thick, requires massaging to work it into the skin or else it dries on top and peels away when you touch your face.

Good For: Really dry skin. Sensitive skin. Bad For: People with active acne. (Lots of rubbing) People with oily skin. People who don't want to spend 3 mins rubbing in their moisturizer in the morning.

Good with time
I like this cream. At first it causes breakouts and a stringing sensation but I think it's because my skin was dry at the time. This cream is acidic and close to the skin's natural ph which benifits skin with acne overtime. This will restore your acid mantle over time with nighttime use, one a night. Use this with the Cetaphil Gentle Cleanser and use no water as instructed on the bottle. If creams bother you, just use the Cleanser. Read my review on the Cleanser.

Like Body Butter
The texture of this product reminds me of a slightly fluffier body butter from The Body Shop. But, it's without all the scents and irritants and is completely non-comedogenic. I use this moisturizer as a body lotion. A little goes a long way and the tub it comes in is gigantic, so it will last a very long time. Only use this on your face if it is extremely dry, or if you are using it to spot treat on extremely dry areas, like around your nose.
