CeraVe : Moisturizing Lotion

can't believe I was wasting so much money on moisturizers when this was out there!

Moisterizes through out the whole day without the oily/greasy feel others have left me with. It deeply penetrates my skin, everything's healthy plump and glows. This product apears pricey, however 12oz will go much further than the less effective usual 2oz bottle of something else. In the end I'd argue that it's much cheaper and there is coupons to be found so don't let tha hold you back. MOST importantly, this lotion NEVER broke me out. In fact my acne became few as this is delicate enough to use on your face. I recently ran out of this stuff and wasn't able to get it right away...my face immediately became dull, broke out, tight, flakey, and not to mention how ugly my makeup looked on top of dried out skin even though I still moisterized. I've never written a review before, but this is a product after my own heart. Love. It.

I have been using this product for the past few years and it is excellent. Feels very light on my skin and gets the job done. I use Differin .03% on a daily basis and Cerave really helps the medication work.

totally recommend it

Excellent moisturizer for DKR regimen!

For some people it doesn't seem to cause any breakouts or very little irritation problems. I think the combination of Cetearyl Alcohol & Ceteareth 20, which has been noted to cause breakouts when used together (not always by looking at these reviews), has caused me smaller breakouts around the chin, forehead and cheek area. What I would do is test it first to see what happens. It might work well for you. Avoid if also prone to cosmetic acne. source: [link removed]

I have used the moisturizing lotion and cream. I used the lotion before I was on Accutane. The lotion was very moisturizing, but maybe just a little shiny/greasy for a while. Overall, great. The cream is also great. It leaves a matte finish and is very moisturizing, and not too thick. The only complaint with this is that it's not a pump, so I have to dip my fingers in every time, which may be unhygienic, but oh well. Get them!

I was excited to try this, based on the description of the lotion and based on other reviews. I have really dry skin and this sounded like it might help out a lot. I've been searching for a good moisturizer because most of the ones that I have tried haven't worked. The first day that I used it, I thought it was very nice and was working well. But the following days, my skin got dried out again and it's just not getting better with this lotion. I tried adding jojoba oil to it, which usually helps out a lot when I add it to moisturizers, but my skin is still staying dry. I tried using more if it, but that didn't help either. It's just not working on my skin. Other than the fact that it's not keeping my skin moisturized, I really do like it. It absorbs quickly and isn't greasy. It does seem to make my skin look nicer, if you ignore the flakes. There are a lot of positive reviews of this lotion, so it might work very well for you. It just doesn't do what it's supposed to do for me.

ok so i have used this product on both realms of skin. i used it before acne meds and during . before it was a wonderful moisturizer. you only needed a little and it went a long way , it was light, and felt good on my skin. during acne meds the burning was so absolutely incredible that as soon as i applied the lotion i burst out screaming and in tears. mind you i have a very high pain tolerance. i however have EXTREMELY sensitive skin. so this is a product that demonstrates perfectly that all products are different for everyone

I've used many many moisturisers in the past, including cetaphil and dan's old formula (haven't tried the new one) and this is the best overall moisturiser I have used. It absorbs in to the skin very quickly and lasts a long time (I'm half way through my first bottle after a month of use). I can't comment on it's interaction with BP as I don't use it, but with the cerave cleanser it works a treat :).
