No so long ago, it seemed like every man and his dog, were raving how good this moisturizer is. So I decided to give it a try, I was happy with my current moisturizer, but the hype was so good! I have a love hate relationship with Cetaphil, it was horrible as a face moisturizer for me, it felt too thick, like it was just sitting on the top of my skin, maybe its my 40's dry skin? I have no idea, but as moisturizer to put on a bit of sun burn etc, I like it! so it gets mixed reaction from me. I'll just keep it away from my face.

Tips: It's worth purchasing, just don't get too excited!
I saw this in Countdown and decided to give it a go, I usually use a cream moisturiser but thought the lotion might be lighter and not so oily. I originally bought the Cetaphil Daily Advance Ultra Hydrating Lotion in a tube for my son who has excema, and he found it excellent for moisturising his dry skin. My skin is combination, oily on the forehead and down the middle, I found this lotion to be really hydrating and light, but not too oily. It sinks into my skin very well. The skin around my eyes is sensitive to some products and can get red and itchy sometimes, but this Cetaphil lotion didn't irritate at all. My skin felt soft and hydrated after applying. I sometimes use it on my elbows and knees, in fact it can be used all over! The pump bottle is handy too.
Tips: It's quite often on special at Countdown, so look out for it. Apply sparingly, just a light application is needed.
This moisturiser feels heavy and can feel greasy. I have dry skin so need to moisturise atleast twice a day but avoid using this one as I just do not like the feel of it on my skin. Depending on the size of the bottle, the larger ones can get quite expensive. I would not pay for the product as I know there are better ones out there that suit my skin better.
Tips: If you have oily skin, this product can feel greasy and take a fair bit to soak into the skin.
I have extremly oily and breakout prone skin so moisturisers are hard for me to like and find but this one is great. No scent and very light on the skin. My bottle has lasted me over 9 months using everyday. Leaves my skin soft and feeling great. It is absorbed into your face extremly fast and no oily residue left on ur face. You can use foundation and other makeup straight after as it absorbs so fast. Never breaks me out and I would recommend to anyone with oily skin. Also the pump is super hand and less mess for you overall I love it!
I was cleaning out my car and I found this under my back seat - I am pretty sure I didn't buy it either. Anyway I started using it as I have super dry skin and was amazed! Its such a good moisturiser. Normally other moisturisers I have to apply regularly as my skin becomes dry again really fast. However this lasts so much longer and my skin feels so soft. I use it on my whole body, including my face. I put it under my foundation sometimes too :) it is very light and you only need a little bit. Only down fall is it takes a while to spread out and can sometimes appear a bit greasy. Very worth the price.
This stuff is seriously AMAZING. I have acne prone skin and it is so so so dry and flaky, so it's terrible to try and put makeup on etc, no moisturiser has worked as well as this, it moisturises ALL day, not just for a few hours and goes back to dry. It's a light feeling moisturiser that gets rid of dry spots immediately without needing much. It's gentle for sensitive skim and not oily feeling at all. It doesn't agitate acne or pimples thankfully. Definitley a holy grail I suggest for anyone with really dry skin it 100% does it's job and lasts forever! Great price too :)
Derma recommended me to use this product for my face. I ended having pimple burst. It doesnt work for me. After stopping it and going back to my usual face cleanser, my face was ok again. Pimples were gone. A friend also experienced the same thing.
I first used this while visiting my grandparents house and i loved it so i bought it when i got back home. I love the basic look and shape of the bottle which is easy to pump out the cream. It is great for the whole familty to use as we all get dry skin. It soaks in great and doesnt leave my skin feeling anf lookin greasy and oily like other moisturisers but leaves skin feeling silky smooth especially after shaving and one pump goes a long way i love this moisturer and will always be a dedicated buyer :)
This is a great moisturising lotion, i always come back to it after using other products. i honestly think that it is the best on the market for sensitive skin. doesn't have nasty chemicals or perfumes, just plain good for your skin
I think i used this moisturising lotion for about 1-2 weeks and i was not impressed with it. I have oily skin already but this just made it 100 times worse! The oily feeling it left on my face was really bad and annoying as it would remove the makeup with it.
Tips: If you have very oily skin i would not recommend you buy this product.
