Cetaphil Moisturizing Cream for Dry/Sensitive Skin, Fragrance Free 16 oz

I tried to get it all in the title :-) This is the same product I love when I buy it at my local store. This is a serious cream, slightly looser than petroleum jelly. It's very similar to Eucerin in weight, but I find it less greasy. It has a major difference from another popular thick cream Cerave which has ingredients to slough off dry skin. This cream only forms a smoothing and soothing barrier on the top layers of my skin which holds in my skin's own moisture. I often put it on right after a shower or bath while my skin is still slightly wet. Also works great when I'm already dry. I can put it on every inch of my skin, including face and eyelids, and other very sensitive areas, even including little shaving nicks, sunburns, etc. A little goes a long way. If I don't use too much, I can achieve the sense of the product completely "soaking in" or "drying". If I use too much, I remain feeling slippery. When that happens, I lightly run a towel over my skin, and then I don't feel icky. Sometimes I put this on my feet and slip on socks before going to bed. Doesn't slough off thick scaly skin, but softens. Glad to find this product for a less expensive price than at my local expensive drugstore.

I have always thought of myself as a pretty girl with perfect skin, but then I got severely dry skin on my face when I hit 25, on top of that I also got an acne issue with it as well. It made it very difficult to look at myself in the mirror and to love myself. No doctors, or beauticians could tell me what the heck was going on with my skin or what to do about it. I have tried all kinds of moisturizers and they'd just end up making my acne issues worse and not healing my severely dry flaky skin, it was so bad to me that I was starting to convince myself that I had leprosy - I felt THAT hideous and I couldn't even wear make up to hide it! Then I logged on to Amazon and was determined to find a moisturizer that might help me, I read through hundreds of reviews and I thought I would put my good faith into this one because it sounded like some of the other people who have tried this product had similar issues. I mean what could I lose? I was a little iffy on some of the comments saying that it is a bit oily, but I tried it anyways. When I got it in I tried it on my face, yeah it is a bit oily but that just lasts for like 10-20 minutes until your skin soaks it all up, but a week after using this my dry skin got better and it didn't even give me an acne break out. 2 years of mental pain and suffering is now finally over thanks to this godsend of a product. I can now look in the mirror again and feel beautiful. I just wish I found this stuff sooner! Thank you Amazon for the reviews and this wonderful product! :) PS: It is even helping reduce stretchmarks after having my first baby!

I have tried many, many kinds of facial creams ranging from Very Expensive to around the $20 range. I bought this, thinking, what the heck, I have nothing to lose, and I can always use it on my body if I don't like it for my face. I'm AMAZED at how smooth it goes on, how it moisturizes so well and does not leave a greasy feeling. ( I have normal/oily skin with dry patches around my chin/mouth) I'm in awe of this product and can't believe how much money I have wasted when I look at all the other 'now useless' jars of cream that I will no longer use. Imagine the money I would have saved over the past 30 years… As far as the paraben concern, I didn't read the ingredients yet, but I will still use it regardless, because the cream works that well!! I'm a vegetarian, I don't smoke, or partake in heavy drinking….I think I'll take my chances if it does have parabens.(which it might not…I'll have to research it) Still, my final decision is that I LOVE THIS CREAM.

I have been using this product since it was recommended to me by my dermatologist maybe 10 years ago. This purchase was to restock my mother's supply as use of the cream to help prevent skin infections (she is 97, with very thin and dry skin). The cream does its magic well, can last several days after appled (my skin) and does not leave a greasy feel.I had not ordered from this retailer before and chose the item on Amazon by price and the 20 oz size jar. The item arrived in good shape promptly with standard shipping, 5 days after ordered. My one annoyance is that Amazon's third party shipping message said that it would be delivered within three weeks. I wrote to the retailer who reponded that that message was not correct and arrival would be much sooner, which it was. As Amazon's system generated the message, I have no idea how or why there were wildly different projected arrival dates.I would buy from this reseller again, hoping that the shipping message is more accurate.

This product is great, I have extremely sensitive skin and this has been wonderful as a daily all over moisturizer. I even use this product on my face, and it has not caused any breakouts even though it is cream. It has a great texture and spreads easier than Eucerin brand (Which is great if you need really heavy duty cream.) One thing I love about the tub is that you don't have any waste because you can get your hand all the way to the bottom, versus the pump, there is always lotion left that the straw won't reach and then you have to fuss with it to get it out, or waste it. Amazon also offers this product at a great price.
