Pros:

Non-comedogenic, affordable, found at my local Walgreen's, pump bottle.

Cons:

Hmmm...no SPF. But it's not a big deal. It would probably make my face greasy if there was SPF in it.

I have tried every single moisturizer out there!!! It's hard to find one to use after applying benzoyl peroxide. Most left a white residue or mixed with my BP and created globs all over my face. But with this product, I have had no problems. It may seem light, but it does a great job at moisturizing, plus it doesn't make my face oily either (and I have very oily skin!). And it's not outrageously expensive like some other products. I don't break out at all from using this! Give it a try!

Pros:

Love it, doesn't make my sensitive skin break out. Got hooked when it was the only thing that worked on my poor skin with Accutane. Great for Eczema too!

Cons:

It seems a bit greasy at first, but it does get better (or did for me). A little pricey BUT the size is larger than most.

Okay, I am extremely skeptical with products, I have tried them all. I had never heard of Cerave until I decided to try Accutane (a very nice nurse suggested it to me because my doctor was a... This nurse loaded me with samples because the product had helped her daughter so much who had skin just like mine). I had such a reaction with eczema, super dry cracking skin, and a horrid flare up with the medicine that my normal Khiel's cream did not even slightly alleviate, but this did. If you prefer a cream, there is one, it's definitely heavier than the lotion but just as good. I am preferable to the lotion. My skin doesn't generally soak any lotion, nor can I use any toners because it just sits on my skin which puzzled the doctors, however this for whatever reason does. If you perhaps have an issue in regards to having stuff not soak your skin well and your skin is not only sensitive but greasy and dry, I recommend you try this. If you have a doc ask for samples to try, then buy.

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.

Pros:

nice lotion and is light weight. Leaves no residue on skin.

Cons:

It didn't seem to absorb to easily and you had to work it in. Didn't moisturize as well as other products have.

Its a very nice lotion and it does do a good job, but when you are on BP and you need extra hydration and flake control it just doesn't work. I much prefer Cetaphil Moisturizing Lotion which works a lot better and you don't have to use as much.

Pros:

Moisturizes very well but it doesn't over-moisturize. Does not leave any greasy or shiny residue. Absorbs quickly and easily. Also appears to help skin tone/reduce redness.

For the price, you get a lot of it. The pump bottle is also very nice

Cons:

Can't think of any other than not having SPF for some people. But I use a weightless spray on 30 SPF sunscreen anyway so I actually prefer it to not have SPF.

This stuff literally repairs damaged and dry skin but it also does not make you appear more oily or greasy. It balances skin moisture very well. It contains Ceramides and Hyaluronic Acid which are very important for skin healing and conditioning. Hyaluronic Acid may also help the appearance of shallow scars which is another plus. I find this to be much better than the cleanser since you leave it on rather than washing it off. All I use now is a gentle soap and this(and sunscreen when needed) and my skin is improving by the day. After the first application my skin looked and felt better. I'd recommend this to anyone looking for a good moisturizer, especially people with dry or combination skin but I think it could just about help anyone.

Pros:

MY DOCTOR GAVE ME A SAMPLE OF THE CLEANSER AND THE LOTION. I HAVE A MILD CASE OF ACNE. I TRIED THESE PRODUCTS AND AS LONG AS I CAN FIND THEM, I WILL NEVER NEVER USE ANYTHING ELSE. BOTH THE CLEANSER AND LOTION ARE SO COMFORTABLE ON MY SKIN.

Cons:

NONE

I WILL USE THIS PRODUCT FOREVER, EVEN AFTER MY ACNE DECLINES. THERE IS NO OTHER PRODUCT LIKE THIS, AND BELIEVE ME, I HAVE USED THEM ALL.

Pros:

Very light, no fragrance, provides the perfect consistency for a daily face moisturizer. Doesn't make you break out and works very very well on dry patches.

Cons:

None

I noticed that someone said that if you use BP underneath this moisturizer, it clumps up. I have to disagree. I have been trying out "the regimen" and I used some of the Neutragina "On-the-Spot" BP cream because I have it on hand. I used a generous pea-sized amount on my face, allowed it to dry completely, and then gently "glided" on the Cerave moisturizer. No clumping.
