My skin isn't terribly dry (no flaking, etc.) but it seems that I need a bit more of an emollient product. After going through 3 tubs of the cream (I applied after my evening shower), I had some growing dislikes - not only the stickiness after applying, but the next morning my skin never seemed like it was moisturized enough. So 2 weeka ago I order the lotion and oh boy! After only 3 days of use my skin is now softer throughout a whole day! It goes on so much nicer than the cream too - no stickiness. Never thought I'd be raving about a body lotion - lol. So at this point I'm a believer! I highly recommend this lotion."}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on December 7, 2018', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-1 review-rating', 'review_body': "This is my favorite moisturizer, and I think I've purchased it twice before on Amazon (with no issues). This time around, however, the moisturizer Amazon sent me was SPOILED- it literally smells like FISH OIL!!!!! Sick! I'm not sure if I just received a defective moisturizer or if maybe the composition of the moisturizer changed while on its way to me. I didn't feel like going through the hassle of returning the product, so it was a complete waste of money!!!! Thanks for basically just taking my money and running, Amazon. Never again."}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on May 16, 2018', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': '5/2019 EDIT: STILL USING AND....it was great for winter as well. I didn\'t need anything more intense. I keep a big container of this around ALL the time! IT IS A STAPLE!\nIf you wash your face, leave it slightly damp and then put this on, you wake up with dewy skin!\n\n_____________________________________________________________\n\nI have tried SO many lotions and creams over the last decades. Some were just greasy and never really absorbed, some had a really medicinal smell, some worked better than others, but none have done a better, more satisfactory job in what I look for in a daily lotion than this one.\n\nGREAT PLUSES:\n\nIt absorbs quickly, it\'s light and I can put it on at night and wake up and my face and hands are just wondrously....smooth and soft. I actually put this on my face over a retinol serum, helps amp the moisture.\n\nI also use it to take off make up and for days I\'m not wearing make up, especially in winter if my skin is dry, I use this to "wash" my face. I smear some around my face and take a slightly rough paper towel to exfoliate and just rub it off.\nEnough is left behind even scrubbing it off, to leave my face moisturized, yet clean.\n\nI love that it is basically unscented. I am very sensitive and I pick up almost nothing from it, so those who are sensitive as I am or don\'t want something to compete with whatever fragrance they wear, this is GREAT.\n\nIt\'s summer and I don\'t know if I will need to go to their more intense cream for winter, but for now, TOTALLY happy!\n\nOh, and I love I can use on my face as an inexpensive moisturizer and it doesn\'t irritate my skin! FABULOUS PRODUCT I can use for face, hands, legs at a GREAT PRICE!\n\nTo have a product that doesn\'t cost a fortune that does what I need it to do for face and body? One of my all time fav products now.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on September 13, 2018', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-1 review-rating', 'review_body': "I love this lotion and have been buying it for years. The last bottle i bought has this awful fishy smell that you don't notice until it's been on your skin for a few seconds. Gross. I'm throwing it away. I really hope it was just a bad batch and not a new formula...."}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on May 7, 2017', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'My dermatologist suggested using this brand of products. The moisturizing cleanser is so good, my hands and face never feel dry when using. The lotion is light and absorbs quickly. The cream is wonderful for those areas of your body that are so very dry... I had dry flakey legs, my dermatologist suggested using the lotion first, to leave a layer of moisture.. then use the cream to lock all the moisture in. It only took 3 days to get my diabetic legs soft and supple again. I really recommend these products to all my friends, and now to you too. ..'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on August 6, 2018', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': "I love this! My pours seem visibly smaller and my makeup goes on flawlessly.\n\nMy friend has eczema on her face and she was genuinely shocked on how fast it improved her skin after one application.\n\nNote it did take 3 days to clear up but it was significantly better after one application.\n\nI'm not advocating for eczema I'm just saying it helped her LOL\n\nIt can be greasy if applied excessively, but a small dab goes a long way and isn't greasy.\n\nI have oily skin and my friend has dry skin."}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on June 6, 2018', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-1 review-rating', 'review_body': 'The lotion smells weird after it dries.

I came across this while looking for a lotion that works best for Non-oily skin, a daily lotion, for sensitive-ish skin, i found the PERFECT one with this.\n\nI bought this about 2 weeks ago, was shipped in 2 days, & when i received it nothing was wrong with the packaging or bottle. Anyways, I started using this after i decided to switch from my Neutrogena Oil-Free Moisture which i had been using for about 6 months. I do not have naturally Oily Skin so it was too drying. But with maaaaany hours spent looking for a FACE lotion with good reviews I came across this and let me just say IT IS WORTH THE MONEY, I am in love! works for face and body which i was skeptical about at first but i do not regret my purchase at all and i highly highly reccomend anyone purchase this. My skin is a little sensitive mainly to perfumes (especially my face) & this is amazing!!! no breakouts, no rash, I will use this forever!'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on March 11, 2021', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'First of all, I am in my 30s, and my skin is oily. After I shower, my nose and forehead (T-Zone) tends to get shiny after only a few hours. I have heard great things about CeraVe moisturizers. They have either a cream or a lotion, and they both can be used on your face. The lotion has a higher water content compared to the cream. If you are wanting to use this on your face, use the lotion if you have oily skin, and use the cream if you have very dry skin.\n\nI bought both the cream and the lotion to experiment, and I can say that the lotion definitely works better for me. When smoothing it onto my face, it goes on matte. It is extremely lightweight as well compared to the cream. My skin still gets oily after a few hours, naturally, so I only need to use a pea-sized amount for my entire face. I have to blot my face with napkins or oil-blotting sheets throughout the day to "freshen up," but it\'s not a big deal. With the hyaluronic acid and ceramides in the lotion, my skin has started to feel extra smooth only after a few uses. I would highly recommend the CeraVe Daily Moisturizing Lotion for my fellow oily-skinned humans!'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on May 20, 2020', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': "I LOVE this product!!! I have combination, sensitive, acne-prone skin that is now aging. I've searched for a facial moisturizer all my life and never found one that I actually liked. High-end, low-end; it either caused breakouts, was too greasy, not enough moisture, etc. I've also always tried to go with natural products, but they either didn't work or had coconut oil that caused breakouts.\nFor me, this is a HOLY GRAIL product! I've never said that about any product I've ever tried (which is a lot!!!). I use this on my face, neck & chest daily. Gives me the perfect amount of moisture without being greasy. Plays well with all my makeup, too.\nAmazon is the only place that sells the 19 oz. size & I go through this stuff quickly since I use it 1-2 times a day. Can't recommend it enough!!!"}]
