Cetaphil Moisturising Cream

I only discovered Cetaphil 3 months ago – yes occasionally I come out from under my rock. I cannot even begin to describe how this product feels on the skin without bringing in rainbows, fairy dust and lollipops.

It has a thick consistency but is very easy to massage into the skin. I feel like it nourishes my face and gives it that little boost in the morning when it's still dark out. What I love most about it, is how it feels on my skin. It feels the way I'd imagine clouds would feel if they didn’t disappear at the touch - too much? Probably haha. Look it feels amazingly silky soft but better! It is seriously an effective emollient with no fragrance and great for sensitive skin.

The product sits nicely on my skin but if you have oily skin like myself don't go slathering it on like sunscreen; a small finger scoop is PLENTY. If you get a little too generous you will end up looking like an oil slick by the afternoon. For bed however I slather on a generous amount.

I care little for the packaging it's a standard sturdy tub that is a bit bulky for travel but worth taking on your trip. I really wished it came in a pump bottle because I generally dislike dipping into products.

My sister bought me the 250ml tub from Chemist Warehouse Australia for about NZD13 and I still have just over half left because I don't need as much as say those with dry skin.

I highly recommend this cream!

I've been using cetaphil for 2 years and I don't think I can go without it. This product is so gentle on the skin and it does not break you out. Very easy to apply, non greasy and absorbs quickly. Perfect for sensitive skin and everyday use.

This is sooo thick and creamy, it is gentle enough to use on baby too. i use mine daily and it leaves my skin feeling fab.

Such a great product, I suffer from excema breakouts and have dry sensitive skin so Am always looking for products that best suit my skin. this product has always been around, I love to use after showering, it keeps my skin nicely moisturised and feeling hydrated. definitely perfect for anyone with sensitive dry skin.

The problem with combination skin that errs on the side of dry is that when the seasons change my skin does too, this is when I reach for Cetaphil skin care range, it is basically the best products out that can help balance out skin.

So in the Autumn and Spring my skin goes through a drying period which results in areas around my temples, chin and cheeks developing dry patches that can get quite sensitive and flaky almost overnight, switching over to this moisturiser cream for night cream sees it soften, balance and look normal again within 2-3 days.

Why don't I use all year around, well it can be heavy for oily areas and normally my skin breaks out in the t-zone and this cream can be pore clogging in those situations and I have had a couple of pimples erupt from it, so I choose to use it as a skin saver a few times a year.

I always keep a bottle of this in the bathroom cupboard. It's a great, all round moisturizer. It suits all skin types from my husband's oily skin to my aging dry skin. My daughter who suffers from Keratosis Pilaris (dry, rough, hardened skin) reacts to most moisturisers and sunscreens but she can use Cetaphil with no reaction, it actually improves her skin condition! I would definitely recommend this as a soothing hydrating and non-reactive moisturiser.

i love this moisturiser as my skin is dry and sensitive so this does the trick for me perfectly! doesn't irritate my skin at all!

Saw this advertised on tv and thought I would give it a go because I really like the cleanser. I was not disappointed! It has no scent which is nice, it is thick and creamy but massages in nicely with no greasy residue. I use it on my feet as I get dry heels, hands because I’m a bit OCD with hand cream and also on my face. I want to buy a bath tub of it and just bathe in it.

I do like using this cream as it doesn't irritate my skin. It's a nice texture and it is easy to apply and the amount in the tub is generous. Makes my skin feel nicely hydrated.
