CeraVe Facial Moisturizing Lotion - PM

Ooo I love this stuff! CeraVe has just starting selling in Australia and I was very excited to try their brand out! I don't know why this is like snake venom to so many people but luckily I've had no reaction to it. It's very moisturising and the consistency makes it very easy to spread out and it sinks in quite quickly. I prefer the lotions over the cream as I feel the cream is …Read more

I used for several years and loved. Now I am a too afraid to repurchase, have heard horror stories of closed comedones and acne since reformulation. I have started 0.05% tretinoin since reformulation and my skin is so unclogged, don’t want to chance it. I do use the Cerave heavy cream tub with a pump to seal in moisturizers after actives, under sunscreen with no ill affects but I’m unwilling to …Read more

Another winner from CeraVe! I love to use this lightweight, non-irritating gel-lotion with its host of skin-repairing ingredients both night (sometimes under a heavier cream) and day (under SPF and, usually, makeup). It soothes my skin and layers very well with other skincare--no pilling. A 3 fl oz bottle lasts me forever and costs $16 when not on sale. I have repurchased and will doubtless do so …Read more

Gave me the WORST product-related breakout EVER. I used Cerave PM every night for two weeks, only on my right cheek. It’s been two months since I stopped and I’m still getting new pimples! WHEN WILL THESE BREAKOUTS STOP?!
My right cheek looks sooo much worse than my left one. I have this huge cluster of red marks now, right in the middle of my right cheek, left by about a dozen pimples of …Read more

It really stings around my lip area, after use, my skin becomes flaky, so i put more to moisturise my skin, but then it just makes my skin even more flaky and makes even bigger flaky patches. It is really disappointing, one of the worst products i have ever used.

I used to LOVE this. It was my HG ‘plain’ moisturiser to slap on alone or with other stuff. Reviews said the reformulation sucked. I ignored them and went ahead and bought another bottle only to discover they were right - it’s AWFUL. Not sure what they’ve done to it but it broke me out in places I never usually get break outs. I’m too old for hormonal acne so break outs now are usually product …Read more

I love this as a daytime or warm weather day and night moisturizer. I love the ingredients, especially because it combines in one product a few things that I want in my regimen (especially Niacinamide). Will definitely repurchase.

The reformulation is awful. I hate it, and my skin does too. Doesn’t soak in. Looks greasy and feels sticky. Worse of all I had a reaction. Red, stinging, peeling skin. This was my holy grail. I bought several at a time. I loved it far more than anything I had tried before. Even the prestige brands. It never felt greasy or heavy. If I was dry I could double the application and it soaked in …Read more

Acne prone ane hated it. It caused more whiteheads.

I love this moisturizer, as it is lightweight yet occlusive enough to leave my combination skin feeling plump and comfortable. During the winter months, I apply after a humectant (rubbed on wet skin, after washing my face at night or splashing it with water in the am). During the hotter season, I use it by itself, normally at night, before or after my retinoid.

It wears well under …Read more
