Really great moisturizer!!

Pros:

Light
No Scent
Good amount

Cons:

Cost

CeraVe is a great moisturizing lotion. I had tried so many moisturizers before trying CeraVe but I'm so glad I tried it. It's a little pricy for a broke college student like myself but it's with it and lasts you a pretty good amount of time. It's very moisturizing, yet very light. I suffer from acne yet lately my skin would get really dry especially after using the regimes Bp. This really went well with the regime and it does not break me out. I would recommend this for people with sensitive skin who need some moister.

SO glad I was recommended this!

Pros:

Very moisturizing
Helps with flaking
No new breakouts

Cons:

very very slight sting when applied but immeadiately goes away

I have had clear skin my whole life and have only broken out once badly in high school and then again recently being 21. Apparently I break out pretty bad due to a dairy sensitivity combined with hormones( just quit birth control). Anyways, I was put on oral antibiotics and two creams and my skin was extremely dry and flaky. My face being flaky made my acne look worse. I also tried tea tree oil which burnt my skin and I needed to heal that as well. Needless to say I searched and tried numerous products before being recommended this moisturizer. Total Godsend for me! My flakes were gone and minor burns were repairing themselves within one day! Now a couple days later, my skin is a huge difference. I would definitely recommend!

Best moisturizer.

Pros:

Smooth skin instantly
No more flakes
Good under makeup

I recently bought this because I was starting to get dry patches (due to too much topical BP.) Instantly, the flakes went away. The redness went away a little too. It made my skin so soft and smooth. JUST AFTER ONE USE. It hasn't caused me to break out either, which is so nice. I even use this under my eyes because it's so gentle. You also get so much for such a good price. It'll last a long time! This moisturizer is good for under makeup too. It makes my makeup go on smooth.

Pros:

Hydrating w/o being greasy
Doesn't make skin feel oily
Soothing
Feels and smells great
Economical (one container lasts forever)

Cons:

None!

LOVE it! I bought it to use on my face, but it worked so well I started using it on my chest and back as well. It's super hydrating but doesn't make my skin feel greasy or oily like some other moisturizers. I use CeraVe foaming wash in the AM, then the wash and this lotion at night. I started this combo when I started retinoids, and I never had a lick of dryness or redness.

Pros:

Great Moisturizer
Light

Cons:

Kind of pricey

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.

Pros:

- Moisturising
- Doesn't Burn
-Cheap
-12oz
-Pump
-Thin application

Cons:

-Breaks me out
-Greasy/Shiny
-Slightly darkens skin tone
-Doesn't absorb well enough

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]

Pros:

Moisturizes
leaves skin very smooth
doesn't leave skin greasy

Cons:

none! :)

I have not been able to find a good moisturizer until my doctor recommended this to me. This is the best moisturizer I have ever used on my face. It was a little pricey for me, but it comes in a big bottle. I will continue using this product! :)

Pros:

BEST MOISTURIZER in the world!!! Goes on smooth leaves skin feeling wonderful, ultra light

Cons:

none at all well no spf

At first a while back my derm gave me a bunch of free samples to use with my tazorac and it worked wonderfully. After i ran out of the samples i went to get some more from walgreens and it was like 11 bucks. I was like too expensive ill just find another moisturizer. But after two years of searching none can compare. Ive tried Eucernin, Avenno, Olay and all but this one will get rid of flakiness and its great for dry or oily skin!!!

Pros:

This is a great moisturizer that calms down my acne rosacea and doesn't cause breakouts. It also doesn't leave a greasy film and works well under makeup. I use it head to toe.

Cons:

None as far as I'm concerned.

Awesome moisturizer for my very dry, fragile, rosacea-prone skin. Doesn't clog pores but does help with flaky skin from treatment and/or dry weather.
