User Insights & Considerations
Some users with very dry or dehydrated skin noted that it may sit on the surface rather than absorb deeply, especially without layering a humectant beforehand. One user observed:
“My skin feels very hot and stingy after applying… the moisturiser doesn’t get into my skin—it just stays on the surface.
Others find it slightly sticky or too rich for oily skin, so pairing with lighter hydrators or using sparingly in hot climates is suggested.
Who Should Use It?
Cetaphil Moisturising Cream is ideal if you have dry to normal, sensitive or easily irritated skin, and need long-lasting hydration without additives. It’s excellent for targeting rough spots on hands, feet, elbows and knees. If you have combination or oily skin, or prefer a lighter texture, you may prefer Cetaphil’s lotion or lighter variants.
This clinically proven cream is a trusted solution for deeply nourishing and repairing dry, sensitive skin—even in harsh climatic conditions. It excels at durable hydration and barrier support, while being free of irritants like fragrance and parabens.
