CeraVe : Moisturizing Lotion

Careful everyone!!! CERO RATING FOR ME.

Honestly, I really did want to like this. A lot of reviewers with sensitive and acne prone skin gave this high ratings, and having that same skin type I was hopeful this would be the end-all-be-all moisturizer. I tried this multiple times, and every time it was a disaster. The first time I used it I think I had an allergic reaction, but I still persisted. After that it just felt greasy and broke me out. It never really 'absorbed' into my skin and felt unpleasant, by the end of the day I couldn't wait to wash this off. It also didn't moisturize well. I had high hopes for this product because I too have trouble finding moisturizers that don't irritate my skin or make me break out. And pleaseeeee don't rate me down for this, I notice that whenever someone gives a bad rating for a product a lot of people like they get a bunch of thumbs down. I don't know why. I just wanted to share my experience with this moisturizer, I'm not saying this will break everyone out, I say still try it. Bottom line, I have really sensitive skin and this irritated my skin badly.

I highly recommend this product. It's the only moisturizer that doesn't irritate my very sensitive skin.

i really wanted to like this, and i did initially but it broke me out.....i know the label says that it's non-comedogenic but it just didn't work for me..... it works great for my mom who isn't prone to breakouts though

This was recommended to me by a famous dermatologist that treats my acne. He didn't sell me anything from his own line of products after I complained about dryness from the Retinol treatments I was on. I'd never heard of Cerave, but I gave it a whirl. It moisturizes without leaving any film, tackiness, scent, or clogging pours. It's light but moisturizes like a heavier cream would. I use it on my hands because I hate hand cream residue. Right now I'm using it with Kiehl's Blue acne lotion because it's drying. Together, they work wonderfully and it's making it easier for me to stay on the acne treatment.

I have VERY delicate, sensitive, oily, acne-prone skin. So my dermo gave me this stuff to use for my BenzaClin (which btw, dried my skin out completely) and i did. At first, it didn't sting at all, moisturized really well, and got rid of my crustyness. I thought it was perfect. Then after a week or so, it: -started stinging -left my skin feeling sun-burned -made me more crusty and oily -and gave me PIN-SIZED WHITEHEADS all around my chin and forehead- about 50 of them! It was disgusting! Now I will never, ever use a product unless it says oil-free. Bottom line: DON'T USE IF: -your skin is naturally oily -your skin is delicate -you're prone to keratosis(which I have) or eczema(it's a sign of allergies and sensitive skin) I would ONLY recommend to people with extremely NATURALLY dry skin(not dry b/c of a medication). Believe me, I know what I'm talking about. I've had skin issues all my life and see a dermo monthly. And btw, if you have skin like mine, i recommend Neotrogena Sensitive Skin Oil-free moisturizer. Hope I helped. (NOTE: this is my honest opinion from experimentation, and I have weird skin)

Just try it trust me you will love it. It seems like a lot of money but the bottle is so big that is in not.

product is what it says it is! :)

This is the best moisturizer I have used since beginning Dan's regimen. I would recommend this to EVERYONE for all skin types! It leaves your face feeling better than every moisturizer I have used! I switched from Dan's moisturizer to cetaphil because Dan's burned my face to no end and really didnt moisturize that well, however cetaphil left me a greasy mess. So in came ceraVe and I will never turn back! Dan REALLY NEEDS to try this and get back to us so he can add it to his recommended products page.

CeraVe Moisturizing Lotion is great! It does not irritate at all, I cannot even feel that it's there. I'm no longer taking a risk of breakouts when I use a moisturizer. This does not make your face look shiny either
