Pros:

lightweight, fragrance free, affordable

i have tried every product you can think of to get rid of my acne. i have went to a dermatologist who only gave me products that made my skin worse....made me think 'why would he want my skin to get clear, then he wouldnt have my $'. i have started washing my face with dove soap & afterward i put cetaphil lotion. nothing else. since i've been on this simple routine i have one zit. i usually have at least 5 or 6 just on my jawline alone. this product is great.

Pros:

I usually have very dry skin in the winter, but since using this my skin hasn't been dry at all. Also, you only need to use a little bit, so the bottle lasts a very long tim.

Cons:

The problem is, it makes my skin so very oily. I use half a squirt to a full squirt and I get so oily I have to blot my skin at least 2 or 3 times during the day. I'm going to have to witch to something else becasue of that.

I like it but it makes me too oily. The con outweighs the pros here, unforunately. But, give it a try and see how it is on your skin, because it does moisturize very well.

Pros:

Feel hydrated! Glowing, when applied.

Cons:

Only moisturise at that moment when you applied but when you wash off it just goes like that. Because it doesnt contain benefits. It contains oil. Yup! when you put oil on your face ofcourse your face will moisturise but only AT THAT MOMENT! when you wash off your face still the same. Because there arent nutrients absorb by your face.

The truths.

Pros:

Moisturizes the best of any moisturizer I have ever used.
GREAT price! Only $11 for a huge 16oz bottle!
Completely unscented.

Cons:

Only problem I have is it doesn't glide on perfectly easy, its like its a hair too thick, but if thats the price I pay for perfectly smooth skin then I am more than willing to take that!

Simply the best moisturizer I have ever used. I have tried Complex 15, Murad Skin Perfecting Lotion, and AcneFree Moisturizer, each for consistent months of time. Recently starting Dan's Regimen has left me with dry, peeling skin. Well at least before I used Cetaphil it was! I was on Complex 15 for a full year, and all through Dan's Regimen thus far, but it always left me with dry skin. Now, after just my 3rd application, Cetaphil has given me smooth, moisturized skin with no peeling or drying!

Pros:

Works well in controlling flakiness in conjunction with Dan's regimen

Cons:

Pretty greasy and feels weird when applying

I use this at night because it's so greasy on my face. It's the only product that controls the flakiness. During the day I use Neutrogena's oil free moisture with a drop or two of jojoba oil. This combination seems to do the trick for my sensitive skin which is flakier than I would have expected on the Regimen.

Pros:

Relatively cheap, doesn't burn or irritate your skin

Cons:

It is oily and doesn't absorb well into your skin - it leaves a shiny oily film

I always used Cetaphil because I thought it was the simplest and gentlest product out there. HOWEVER, I never realized that IT HAS OIL IN IT aka it is NOT oil-free. I was really surprised and when I switched to an oil free moisturizer I immediately noticed the difference. I would recommend that anyone with acne prone skin should look for something that is OIL FREE.

Pros:

moisturizes very well, applies easily, doesn't clog pores, doesn't sting or burn.

Cons:

very greasy, leaves a shine

very good to use at night or while sleeping. uncomfortable to wear during the day or while awake. very affordable. note: i tried the cream, not the lotion.

Pros:

Cons:

stings & makes my skin oilly which it is already and makes you breakout

April 14, 2008

Pros:

Moisturizes in the winter as well as everyday.

Cons:

Clogs my pores. Greesy for a little bit after application.

Works well. I wish it didn't clog my pores, but nothing is perfect.

Pros:

none

Cons:

everything

I hated this stuff, seriously! I did better not using any moisturizer than i did using this stuff. Its clumpy, doesn't sink in AT ALL and it made my skin all red and blotchy. DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT!!!!!!!!
