CeraVe moisturizing cream vs Cetaphil moisturizing cream?
CeraVe moisturizing cream vs Cetaphil moisturizing cream?
I used the CeraVe one for quite a while because I thought it was the best, and then I tried the Cetaphil one because it was on sale and: I like it way more! I think the high petrolatum content is what is so great for my skin!
What are your preferences between these community faves? Or do you have another preference altogether?
I haven't tried the Cetaphil moisturizing cream but I have tried the "Cetaphil Facial Moisturizer Dry Skin" and I really liked it. Its very similar to the Cetaphil moisturizing cream from what I can tell.
The CeraVe moisturizing cream is nice but when my skin is sensitive it can actually burn a bit when applying, which Cetaphil Facial Moisturizer Dry Skin never did. Unfortunately though it made my skin feel a bit greasy so that's why I didn't stick with it. Perhaps I will give it another go in the winter when my skin is super dry!
Currently I'm trying the Geek & Gorgeous Happier Barrier moisturizer and I reeeally like it! Actually I'm trying multiple products from Geek & Gorgeous right now and I'm becoming a bit of a fan-girl!
Yes! The CeraVe one can really burn sometimes not sure why…
CeraVe for me. Cetaphil leaves a layer which I only like in the winter when I have no place to go and need a deep moisturizer.
I know what you mean, but tbh I quite like it, it’s like slugging light… but my skin is super dry currently too, so if it was oilier again I also think it’d be too much
Oh yeah my skin is oily. Everyone’s skin type will probably influence their opinion in this thread. It definitely depends on your type, imo.
I am 100% with you! CeraVe is definitely not a bad option, but once I was able to find Cetaphil in my area I started using it and haven't looked back.
Personally my go to is vanicream over everything else
that is sadly not available in Europe, but I've only heard good things about it!
I like Vanicream also. It's similar to the Cerave and the Cetaphil. It doesn't have HA so I can use it year round (HA dries out my skin unless I use it in humid weather; dries it out no matter even if applying to soaking wet skin and topping with an occlusive but works in humidity). It also has a short,.simple ingredients list and is usually much cheaper than the others.
My eczema adores it!
