CeraVe Daily Moisturizing Lotion for Dry Skin | Body Lotion & Facial Moisturizer with Hyaluronic Acid and Ceramides | Fragrance Free | 19 Ounce

I have been using this lotion (and the Walmart generic version of it) for years. I am impressed with the way that, unlike others I have used, it fully absorbs into my skin, and leaves my hands feeling clean and dry (but not too dry) within seconds of application. This stands in sharp contrast to what might be described as "bargain brands" that I have tried. Other lotions I have tried feel like they leave a coating on my hands. Sometimes this is slippery or slimy and I have to wipe it off with a towel. Not so with this lotion, which applies, absorbs, and leaves my hands feeling as clean as if they had been freshly washed. Without it, I can be prone to getting hangnails, or rough spots on my hands. This lotion solves those problems and I use it every day for this reason. As soon as I get out of the shower and I am dried off, I apply this lotion as part of my daily routine. I reapply if a situation arises in which I have to wash my hands more than usual or if for any other reason my hands have been through a rough ordeal. Every time I use it, I sense the quality and feel that I have made a good investment in purchasing it. The only comparable product I have found at a lower price is the Walmart branded product which is clearly an exact copy of this product. I accept no other alternatives if I can avoid them, and I keep a spare bottle in my travel kit. You will not regret this purchase.

This is my Folliculitis Journey and i include ALL THE PRODUCTS I USED to get rid of it. I got Folliculitis on my groin area, i had no idea what it was since i have never had it but it started spreading down my legs and leaving these dark marks/scars. The lesions started multiplying, i went to the doctors who gave me an ointment gel, which did absolutely nothing for me, it was an acne treatment. Since it started getting hotter and summer was near i knew i had to act fast or else i would have to wear pants all summer. First things first, from my research it states not to shave to prevent he spread of Folliculitis, so yes i did just that. I didn't shave for over a month...i know gross but it had to be done. *If you do decide to shave, use a new fresh blade every time you shave in order to prevent spread. Also if you have folliculitis on your legs don't use the same blade on your armpits etc. I looked up items on amazon and read reviews for "Almond Clear: Body Clearing Serum" https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0866B6CV1/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&th=1 I decided to give it a try, i started with Level 1 and used it with the Hibliclens antibacterial soap as everyone in the reviews did. I already had the soap since its so amazing and i recommend everyone have this soap in their home it works miracles. I was already using this soap by itself for about 2 weeks prior to buying the Almond Clear bottle and i noticed no difference. When i read that buyers were combining both Almond Clear Serum and the soap i decided to do the same, but still i felt that Hibliclens did not do much for me. My Folliculitis was very stubborn! https://www.amazon.com/Molnlycke-Hibiclens-HIBICLENS-LIQ-OZ/dp/B00E5R65SA/ref=sr_1_3?crid=GNSU7PU7YVEN&dchild=1&keywords=hibiclens&qid=1590613599&refinements=p_85%3A2470955011&rnid=2470954011&rps=1&sprefix=hibi%2Caps%2C234&sr=8-3 *Everyone is different so what works for someone might not work for others. As for the Almond Clear serum, i noticed immediately a difference! overnight the lesions seemed like they shrunk. The only complaint is that the bottle doesn't contain much. I had a big area to cover so 1 bottle was finished in 1 week. I would definitely recommend you purchase the bigger bottle so its worth your money (they have the 4oz option available). Also level 1 is more for someone who might have like 1-4 lesions..or for sensitive areas like the face. I felt like it made a difference but i definitely needed something stronger to completely get rid of them, i should've skipped to level2 like everyone else did in the reviews. I bought level 2 when i ran out of level 1 and i definitely noticed a huge difference! Listen to me right now, if you suffer from severe Folliculitis YOU HAVE TO BUY THIS! Honestly my case got so bad i had so many lesions on my groin area they started spreading down to my thighs and legs and even my private area :( i was so stressed i couldn't wear shorts and even pants would cause me to breakout in hives and the infected area would get so red and irritated easily. It got bad! Luckily this product saved my life..I started using this April 20, today is May 27 and i am pretty much cured, the lesions are all gone and even the scars are faded! This product faded the nasty dark marks. The reviews recommend using up to 2xs a day. This did not work for me, my skin is very sensitive so i would only use 1x a day, every night after i showered i would apply and leave overnight. I do have to say that this product makes your skin peel and drys your skin out. For me, it made my skin excessively dry and i would shed skin almost everyday. Because my skin was getting beyond dry i decided to moisturize. I used CeraVe Moistorizing Lotion every morning when i woke up. *(make sure to always wash your hands before and after you apply a product to prevent from spreading to other body parts). https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000YJ2SLG/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o07_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 I used this lotion because alot of people with skin issues use this lotion and it works well, i had no issues, great product! I shower every night so i decided to use a Folliculitis body wash i found on Amazon. I leave it on the area for about 5 mins then i rinse. I also noticed a big difference with this product right after the 1st use! I used this product for about 1.5 months? https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00GBL3RES/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s04?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Another product i used in the shower was the Nizoral Shampoo. I saw YouTube videos of people who used it on their arms and face to treat folliculitis. Luckily i already had this shampoo as well, its to treat dandruff, i recommend for both dandruff and for folliculitis, i feel like this items made a difference. I replaced the Hibliclens soap with this product, i leave it on the area for about 5 mins then rinse in the shower. I used this product for about a month. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00AINMFAC/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 The final product i used was Defense Soap, i used this soap in order to kill any bacteria or fungi that might have been causing the Folliculitis. I felt like this also made a difference and i washed my whole body with this in order to prevent any Folliculitis from spreading on my stomach or arms...I was terrified of getting it any where else, the soap makes you feel fresh and clean specially after a workout! It does dry your skin so you don't have to use everyday, but if you do i would definitely recommend to moisturize with the CeraVe lotion or just any lotion in general. I used this product for about a month. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07HYBK2YF/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o09_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 *Be sure to use these products EVERYDAY, TO SEE RESULTS YOU HAVE TO BE CONSISTENT. If you are on a budget: Out of all the products i would definitely recommend you use the Almond Clear Serum and the Folliculitis Body Wash by Ovante. Yes i know this is a VERY LONG routine and so many products to use, but all my folliculitis is pretty much gone already! It is pricey to buy all these items, but honestly i was willing to pay $100+ in order to get rid of this and it was worth it!I guess it depends how bad do you want to get rid of this? I think its worth it! Do your research, find out what works for you, try different products until you find something that works for your skin. I HOPE THIS HELPS SOMEONE! 87 people found this helpful

I’ve been using body lotion daily after bathing, from neck to toes my entire life. Well, since I’ve been old enough to do it myself, probably since 4 years old. After they stopped distribution of Complex 15, in the US, I chased it down in Canada. I would order 10 bottles at a time and had it shipped here only for it to be discontinued. I spent years, yes YEARS trying different lotions. Only to be disappointed. I would slog my way through bottle after bottle trying all brands from high brow to low. And I’ll still try a new lotion whenever one pops up. But this particular formula of CeraVe is the only one that comes close. It has a higher viscosity and therefore tiniest bit of lingering slickeriness. I find that when I use it on my hands and arms before I go to bed I notice a very faint odor. Kinda like a chemical-sourish smell. I’ve taken to adding a teeny half-drop of another scented lotion to cut the smell. (Admittedly I have heightened olfactory.) It still has great coverage, absorbs well, is (mostly) unscented, keeps me moisturized all day and is lightweight. If you look at the ingredients water is the first listed. That’s usually a good sign.
