Pros:

This is the ONLY lotion I have used on my face that HAS NOT made my face explode!

Cons:

No SPF!!!! Wish it moisturized a bit more, but a couple of drops of Dan's Jojoba oil mixed in makes it better at night.

My skin totally freaks out when I use BP...this is the ONLY lotion that keeps my skin from being one big, nasty, flaky mess. AND it's the only lotion I have ever used that has not caused MORE horrible acne! I do wish it had SPF so I could wear it during the day :(

Pros:

Light, moisturizes well without anything below it

Cons:

If you use benzoyl peroxide or anything under this moisturizer, it won't work. It clumps up and does not moisturize well. Definitely not recommended for people using creams and gels for their acne.

Works great for a standard lotion with nothing under, but anything under it will block the absorption of this moisturizer.

Pros:

it doesn't make my face oily! this is the only moisturizer i have ever used that leaves my face relatively matte for over 2 hours

Cons:

doesn't moisturize great but its a small price to pay

i started using dan's bp. my skin before used to be very very oily. i used proactiv and my acne was under control but i was looking for a cheaper alternative. i wash with purpose bar, then use dan's, then moisturize with cerave. my skin has now turned pretty dry after using dan's but after using cerave its nice!

Pros:

Doesn't break me out, very moisturizing, non-irritating, AMAZING!

Cons:

NONE!

I used to be deathly afraid to apply moisturizer to my face. Not anymore! This stuff has worked wonders, my skin is even toned and amazing! I also use Tretinoin and BP and my skin is not red or dry at all!

Pros:

Well formulated product that is light and noncomedogenic so it is great for the face. LEaves little if any shine and is not greasy. Using it for the body though requires several apllications as I prefer something a bit thicker and more oily

Cons:

I wish it was thicker as it feels like you need a pump or two for the face. On the body it doesn't feel like it's moisturizing well because it's not greasy. But others say skin is softer so it must be working.

Great moisturizer with no breakouts whatsoever. A little shiny, so I wish it had a matte finish for the face. Excellent moisturizer for the face but I might use their creme product for the body. It also seems to burn a bit after application but I'm using it in conjunction with topical retin A.

Pros:

goes on smooth, non-greasy, great for oily acne-prone sensitive skin

Cons:

none

It works and leaves skin nice and baby soft. My dermatologist gave it to me as a sample so i didn't pay a dime! I have hyperpigmenting skin and this is by far the best anti-acne moisturizer. I plan on using this for a long time. Cetaphil lotion has done wonders for my friend, NOW I have a product to brag about!
May 18, 2008

Pros:

not a single breakout,great moisturizer, great price

Cons:

no SPF--can't wear in summer; wish they had a travel sized one too

I break out from everything except this stuff. It moisturizes even though I use Renova. BUT, and this is a biggie, NO SPF. No idea why, but can only use this during non-summer months.

Pros:

no smell, no greasy, good to use on whole body

Cons:

none

I have had moderate adult acne for six years. I have tried at least 15 topical prescriptions, several BCP's, had chemical peels, used holistic remedies, used the 'clear skin diet' book...to name just a few (all with no changes in my skin). Shortly after starting to use BP at night, and cerave during the day my acne began to dissapear. My skin is now flawless again and the texture of my face has changed completely. I attribute that all to using CeraVe.

Pros:

relatively cheap for the size of the bottle, non-greasy, fragrance free

Cons:

no SPF

i've had acne prone skin my entire life, and up until recently had given up on moisturizer altogether- it seemed like whatever brand i tried (clinique, aveeno, neutrogena, cetaphil) would just break me out, but not cerave. it actually improves the appearance of your skin without leaving the sticky film behind that a lot of other moisturizers do. the hydrating facewash is amazing too
