PERFECT
This is the one and only product that has worked for me. Seriously I've tried dozens of other moisturizers and none of them worked at all. I guess I just have super dry skin. If you're a super (and I mean super duper) dry guy like me you probably won't have that greasy feeling afterwards because your skin will absorb it all in a matter of seconds. I guess I'm lucky sense I don't get breakouts like everyone else in the comments keeps saying. If I could give this a 10 out of 5 stars I would. Cetaphil has saved my skin. My skin looked horrible prior to using this product. Everybody is different, if its giving you cancer and causing breakouts then stop using it but if its the perfect match for your skin then keep using it. I haven't had a problem with it at all so far and I've been using it for over 2 years now. Had all the tests and procedures done to check for cancer and guess what....I DONT HAVE CANCER! Honestly I prefer not having itchy scaly skin. Until I can find an "all natural" moisturizer that can handle my skin I'm just gonna stick to Cetaphil. I'm as dry as they come so that's why it works for me. Oh and a greasy face is easier to handle then a dry one. Just carry a paper towel in your pocket and bam just like that problem solved. But for us super dry guys we can't necessarily carry a bottle of lotion with us everywhere. So having it dry is worse. Avoiding breakouts is easier too just wash your face 2 times a day with warm water, use a cleanser brush and a cleanser bar.

Hasn't let me down
This works great to hydrate skin without causing too much of a breakout, even on the regime i would recommend this as one of the go to moisturizers, only bad thing is you can look a little greasy but not like crazy amount, to me it's way better than dry flaky skin.

Pros:

moisturizes well, not irritating

Cons:

a bit greasy; might break you out if used too much

this moisturizer has been great! after using so many OTC products on my skin, my skin became dried out and red on top of having acne. my derm recommended a switch to Cetaphil. at first, i didn't like it because it was so greasy. however, the trick is to not use so much- all you need is a pea size amount or less for your entire face, right after you wash your face. if you apply the lotion on a moist face, the lotion seals in moisture really well. after using for a week, the redness faded, my skin was more moisturized, and my acne and scabs started to heal faster.

Pros:

Glides onto my skin.
Doesn't leave shine.
Not thick or gluggy like other moisturisers.

Cons:

None that I can see.

This is the best moisturiser I've come across. Cetaphil was recommended by my GP and I'm so glad I took his advice. My skin is acne-prone, combination and sensitive and this moisturiser seems to be very compatible with all of these skin conditions. Very happy!

Pros:

its awesome! no more flakiness and dryness. it moisturizes very well. after i used this, my skin felt so soft and smooth. it's gentle. it didnt irritate my skin at all and didnt make my skin break out. my skin type is sensitive, acne-prone AND oily.

Cons:

no spf. i wish i could wear in the morning if it contained spf but no... and one person did tell me that my face was shiny...but who cares as long as it doesnt make my skin break out and keeps me nice and soft?

try it! if its too greasy for you, use it at night. its the best moiturizer that i've used so far. i like the plain bottle. its simple. it's fragrace-free so no strong scent. consistency may be a little thick but as you apply to your face gently with your fingers it absorbs pretty well.

Pros:

WORKS PERFECTLY.

Cons:

SUPER GREASY/OILY.

i dont use it in the morning because it feels so oily and greasy. cant go out with an oily face. looks so messy. BUT this moisturizer works perfectly. its so mild and it really moisturizes my face. it is fragrance free. it doesnt irritate my skin and it doesnt clog pores. this is effective.

Pros:

great moisturizer, inexpensive, non irritating, fragrance free,

Cons:

none

if you have a combination of acne and eczema which makes your skin very very sensitive, then this is the only moisturizer that will work for both.

Pros:

Non-comedonic, cheap (came with free Cetaphil cleansing bar :) ), don't need to use a lot, absorbs easily, fragrance free

Cons:

If you use more than half a pump you'll be greasy.

Its a pretty good moisturizer, my skin was severely dry because I was using a lot of 10% BP (yeah I know, but it was before I came across this site) and I tried this and it instantly made my skin feel so much better. I did have a few tiny white heads pop up, but its most likely because of the severe irritation caused by the 10% BP I was using.
