Hi Beauties,
I think it's a really difficult process to find right skin care products that really suit us.
It is even more difficult when skin is sensitive , oily and acne-prone .
So, I was looking for a good moisturiser to use over my beloved Suncote Sunscreen Gel for days when my skin feels dry.
I love cetaphil cleansing lotion so I thought of giving moisturiser from same brand a try.
Cetaphil moisturizing lotion comes in this 100 ml container priced at 260 INR .
It's a medium consistency lotion and smells really odd, I just don't like it.
I tried this cetaphil lotion in peak delhi winter , when its extremely cold and dry , so try that even my super oil skin feels like its cracking.
But OMG , I applied it, rubbed it well so that it gets absorbed but it never got completely absorbed. 10 minutes later I touched my face and my had was full of oil. My face was looking like I has applied a ton of oil .
The very next day I got a huge pimple , still kept on using and it broke me out so bad. ( not to mention I had to attend a wedding with my chin full of HUGE pimples with guests starring )
Pros :
1) Has no artificial color
2) Has a long shelf life of 2 years .
3) Travel friendly packaging .
4) Easily available .
Cons:
1) Does not absorb into the skin .
2) Smells Weird .
3) Broke me out like crazy .
4) Gives a really oily look .
5) It makes face very sweaty .
6) It clogs pores.
7) I tried to use it was body lotion but I didn't like it as that too.
I had really hight expectations from this lotion but it just didn't work for me.
After me my mum tried it and she also didn't like it.
I do not recommend it, A big No for sensitive and oily skin people. I don't think it will work for Normal skin people too. But if you have dry skin, then this lotion is for you.
It's weird. I have an ultra sensitive skin and I've been using this for over an year now and nothing bad has happened to me! Maybe your particular bottle was expired or smthng was strange in that cos I've been recommended this from a beauty blogger and girls love this one. I mix it with my neutragena sunblock and apply it or sometimes just this.
ReplyDeleteMaybe you might be having very oily skin that's y it happened. It's a medicated moisturizer.
Thank you for your wonderful comment on my earlier post :)

I've read loads about it too and am surprised it was so awful on you. Hope your skin has cleared out now. Pimples can be awful I know :( I had a bad persistent forehead acne problem during my last teens but thankfully its totally gone so I've never had to use much of skin products
