Is there ever a time in our lives when we can stop worrying about our skin? We worry about too much sun. We worry about wrinkles. We worry about break-outs. Then we worry about oily skin or dry skin.
Remembering to take care of my skin has become so important to me, but I always get really overwhelmed with all of the options. I was recently given the opportunity to review Cetaphil products, and I was so excited because within the past six months I had become a loyal Cetaphil customer.
I had become so tired of all of the overpriced products. My bathroom cabinet was full of moisturizers, cleansers, toners, sunscreens, night creams, day creams. I think you get the point. It was overwhelming, expensive, and time-consuming. Not to mention confusing. Which is the best? Why do I need all of those products in the first place?
Then one day when I was at the drug store, I spotted the Cetaphil products on the shelf. My dermatologists have always recommended Cetaphil products to me. They don’t break the bank, and most importantly, they’re gentle and effective for the skin.
My new daily routine includes washing my face with Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser and then applying Cetaphil Daily Moisturizer with SPF 15 before applying my makeup. The Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser is gentle on my skin and fragrance-free. It helps to control oily skin and helps prevent dryness in the winter months.
The temperatures today were in the low 50s, but the sun was shining, and it felt like a gorgeous 70 degree day. But that bright sun can be so tricky when getting ready in the mornings. I love that I can wear sunscreen every day with the Cetaphil Daily Moisturizer with SPF 15 without having that heavy sunscreen smell or the heavy sunscreen texture underneath my makeup. I know that I am protected from the sun’s harmful rays and I can still go about my regular beauty routine.
I love that even in my 30s, I can help prevent wrinkles and help prevent break-outs with two easy, inexpensive steps. I love Cetaphil products enough to use them on my own children. I know that they’re safe and gentle enough for everyone in our family.

I love cetaphil lotion and have been using the product since I was an oily teenager 16 years ago. This is my go to product at 28 years young, especially now that I live out in the desert.
Of everything I own, my moisturizer is the one thing I can’t do without. I’ve got terribly dry skin so it’s a must. And I usually use it 3-4 times a day. Oddly enough, this is by far the best one I’ve found for my skin.
Cetaphil is my FAVORITE too! I love the thick cream in the jar for my dry, winter skin. I also use the cleanser for my face, and I love that it doesn’t leave it feeling tight and itchy.
I couldn’t do without my facewash, I love the clean feeling after washing off all my make-up.
Love my Cetaphil Daily Moisturizer!
I use the Cetaphil hydrating lotion!! This is the best moisturizer!!
My daily routine requires the Laura Mercier primer…creates a perfect palette for makeup!
Definitely my oil free face wash!
I need my moisturizer becuase I have several dry patches on my skin. I have never tried the Cetaphil lotion, but I have been using the facewash for years. Every time I switch to something else I end up going back to Cetaphil.
I could not live without moisturizer! I have super dry skin and love me a good moisturizer!
I love Pond’s makeup removing towelettes. Makes it so easy to remove makeup and grime before bed.
we love cetaphil around my house. My daughter has horribly sensitive skin and it works wonders.
I couldn’t do without hand lotion. My hands get so dry in the winter months!

The one I could not live without is my Ponds Mosturizer. It is pretty much the only beauty product I use!
I could not live without moisturizer! I have extremely dry skin.
I couldn’t live without Cetaphil facial cleanser. I’m not just saying that because of the topic of this post. I’ve used Cetaphil for the past 6 years. I tend to have oily skin, but I found that most of the products for oily skin would dry me out too much. Cetaphil works perfectly. I don’t feel like myself in the morning until I’ve washed my face with Cetaphil.
Does that sound like a commercial or what??? LOL
I started using Cetaphil about 5 years ago when I became pregnant with my first son. I wanted something that was more gentle than the Oxy products I had been using since high school. I love the Cetaphil face wash and have used it literally every day since. I haven’t tried the moisturizer but will check it out!
I would not live without my face wash, but am in the market for moisturizer. I’m definitely going to try it out!
Honestly, I have used Cetaphil for years, and it’s the only cleanser that keeps my skin clear. Everything else is too harsh, especially the often recommended Proactiv. And, Cetaphil is the only product I’ve found where the Target knock off version does not compare! It has to be name brand, and that’s okay, because it’s a product that I believe in!
Cetaphil moisturizer is the best.
Moisturizer for sure! I’m noticing my skin has been getting a lot drier and more sensitive after I turned 30.
I can’t live without my facial moisturizer! My face feels so dry and my make up does not go on nicely without it!
Definitely my Purpose face lotion.
Rosebud Salve lip balm. I have a tin in my purse, a tine next to my bed, a tin in my make up bag, a tin in the nursery … and I just loaded up on them for stocking stuffers and girls’ gift exchanges. If you need lip balm, you come to me 😉 xo
Lovely giveaway! thanks for sharing xo
Cetaphil is a standard stocked item around here – ha! My college room-mate got me hooked on it. That was, oh my word, almost 10 years ago…. Now, if I am still loyal to a product this long after having (thankfully) outgrown my college girl budget, that must say something! ;o)
Could not live without my CoverGirl tinted moisturizer or good ole chapstick!
I cannot live without lip balm. My lips get dry easy

I could never go without my Nivea moisterizer – my skin is very dry and must have moisterizer!
I can’t live without my SPF facial moisturizer and eye cream. I love anything that hydrates my skin and smells great.
I have super sensitive skin and couldn’t live without my CeraVe cream…LOVE it!
I love my st ives apricot scrub! However, I am a huge beauty products junky, so my moisturizer, mascara, alba chap stick are also contenders, followed by many more!
clarisonic and carmex!
I do the same skin regimen as you — Cetaphil cleanser and spf moisturizer. Absolutely love them and love that they do a wonderful job for a fraction of the cost of all that other stuff. Couldn’t live without either of them! 🙂
I love cetaphil as it is one of the only creams I use on my toddler who is allergic to dairy, eggs, nuts, shrimp and other minor foods. He had terrible eczema ages 5mnths-8mths before we were able to get it under control with the help of cetaphil. Also Sun is my birthday what a great present this would be!
I have very dry skin. I need to use a moisturizer that isn’t sticky or smelly but that really makes my skin feel dewey soft and smooth.
I could not do without my moisturizer, especially during the cold winter months! 🙂
A daily moisturizer with sunscreen.
I’ve always thought about trying Ceptaphil products, but haven’t. Maybe I’ll have to now! I can’t live without my moisturizer. My skin gets so tight and dry without it!
I am a Proactiv girl. He has saved my acne prone skin. I absolutely, wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone who has/had acne issues.
love Cetaphil!
I’ve been using cetaphil cleanser for yeas now and love it. I haven’t tried the moisturizer yet.
I absolutely can not live without my Proactiv face wash. It has helped so much with my acne prone skin (from a teenager all the way to my 30s) and I love that fresh, clean feeling!
Definitely my Purpose face wash and lotion.

I am currently pregnant and breaking out a lot because of it, so I couldn’t live without my peroxide gel!

I actually haven’t found a skin care product I can’t live without…but I’m glad to read your review of Cetaphil because I recently did a makeup lesson with my favorite aesthetician and she highly recommended Cetaphil for me! I guess I will have to pick it up next time I’m out and give it a try! 🙂

Burt’s Bees lip balm!
I couldn’t live without my moisturizer! Such a life saver!
Cetaphil lotion in the tub. My little guy has the craziest skin and NEEDS that stuff. We use it on him like we are frosting a cake! I actually didn’t use it until I had Mason. Now I use it too and my skin thanks me everyday!! haha.
My fragrance free face wash is a must! I currently use Oil of Olay for my sensitive skin to keep the oil at bay.
Mine is definitely moisturizer. I feel like I’m always so dry and couldn’t live without it!

Using sunscreen is an everyday thing for me.

Oil of Olay beauty fluid, but I have not tried Cetaphil!
Of all skin care products I own, I couldn’t live without moisturizer with SPF or my skin would be very dry. Now I would like to try Cetaphil products after reading your review. Thanks for this review and giveaway.

I consider my cleaner & moisturizer one–because I wouldn’t do/use one without the other! I’ve been using Cetaphil for years. When the dermatologist recommended it, he suggested I not use moisturizer (unless I needed it–which I do!)

I like using tinted light day moisturizer with SPF by Neutrogina!
I am at a lose right now on skin care products. After having two boys of my own and turning over a birthday milestone, my skin has certainly changed. I am excited to give Cetaphil a chance. Thanks for the coupon!
I have to have my Clinique yellow moisturizer.
I need a good moisturizer and love that this is fragrance free. Might work for my son with his skin allergies and for me with my dry skin!

Moisturizer. My skin is so dry!
I have to have my lip balm – which is why I bought several so they’re handy.
I must have a light, non-greasy, non-tacky, organic/natural body lotion. Two of my fav brands are 100% Pure and EO. I use this stuff all year round to keep the scaly skin away!

I have always loved Cetaphil face wash – can’t beat it!
Cetaphil! I’ve used this face wash for years and LOVE it! My mom used it and of course got me obsessed with it as well! Your face just feels so soft and clean after using!
I do use their facewash sometimes when my Mary Kay is out. I find that it gives me good results also. Thanks!!

Moisturizer – having moved from Michigan to Florida my skin has changed drastically and w/o using moisturizer I look and feel horrible!
i can’t live without face and body moisturizers.
I could not li without my Cetaphil moisturizer. I have psoriasis, and Cetaphil is THE best for it. A friend recommended it to me about 13 years ago, and I have been using it and recomending it ever since.
