CeraVe : Moisturizing Lotion

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've had great succes with cerave lotion with coral kavi. I started using this lotion since 2011 and had a great skin that was glowing. However, after buying a new bottle in september of 2015, i started breaking out in random places that i normaly don't break out. My regimen didn't change for 4 years and i was wondering what could have been the cause. First i thought my soap just stopped working. I kept using this lotion with different acne treatments and my situation only got worse. So i had to track my product history and decide what was causing this sudden breakout. Found out, cerave changed the company and the formula! You can google it and see what people are saying about this. The ingredients look the same from the previous bottle but the company changed it and didn't let the customers know because they were afraid to lose their customers. If you have been using cerave, you will notice bottle used to be smaller. It just kept getting bigger bigger and bigger every 2 years or so. This lotion is very comedogenic. Especially people with combo or oily skin, avoid this product.

by recommendation I purchased this (and stopped using my HG Kheil's wash and lotion) in order to save money. this lotion was okay the first two nights but gave some slight itchiness through the day. by the third day I woke up to 3 whiteheads 2cm wide and redness through the rest of my face. I gave the lotion the benefit of the doubt for 1 week and used it twice a day. NOPE. my skin is the worst it's ever been this year and I will throw this CeraVe lotion away.

This moisturizer made me break out every time I used it. I was hopeful because of all the positive reviews, but if you are an acne prone teen like me, I would avoid this product. Even Dan reviewed and said it caused acne, so I definitely would not reccomend it.

I wanted to love this lotion, but after 2 days of use, I began to get little whiteheads in areas that I don't normally break-out. I stopped using it and my break-out immediately resolved.

I'm surprised this works for so many people. I started using based on the reviews. After I stopped using it, the whiteheads stopped forming. This lotion feels so nice though so I'm going to use it on my legs.

I heard awesome things about this and decided to give it a shot for a month. On my skin, this broke me out tremendously (I have no clue why :( ) and gave me so so many whiteheads even though it is supposed to not clog your pores. Sadly, this made my skin so much worse :(

Careful everyone!!! CERO RATING FOR ME.
