Thick & doesn’t soak into the skin

2 out of 5 stars
emmaash_3118 - 10 days ago
originally posted on influenster.com
I’m generally not a fan of moisturizers from Cerave, since they tend to be very heavy & clogging. The same goes for this one. It takes an effort to blend in before the white cast disappears, & if feels like a thick layer over the skin, instead of it soaking into the skin. I would recommend, especially not if you have acne prone skin.

White Residue, Not for Brown Skin

LeahK - 12 days ago, Verified purchaser
0/10. I wish I would have read reviews before buying this. I usually use La Roche Posay’s SPF 30 moisturizer, but the price has gone up so I thought I would give this a try as it’s $8 less. I used it for the first time today and it did not absorb into my skin at all, it left a white cast all over my face and neck. I will go back to paying for my other SPF, which wears beautifully on my brown skin and under makeup.

Doesn't absorb properly. It just sits on the skin with a white sheen. Pills up if you rub it too much. Also the pump didn't work. I would not recommend and would not buy again.

I wanted to love this. But I found that it went on heavy and it took some effort to blend in so I wouldn’t have any white cast. On the plus side, it got the job done and didn’t have a strong scent.

SPF makes it thick and pasty, have to thin it down

The lotion is nice except the 30SPF makes it so thick and pasty I have to thin it with water just to be able to put it on without having to use a ton and having it pill up. So I'm getting less of the active ingredients. I wish there were a version without SPF. I'll put my own sunscreen on over it.

Has an odd scent

AZ - 1 month ago, Verified purchaser
I love the cerave brand and was excited to try this moisturizer & spf combo. I have sensitive skin and am allergic to a lot of different ingredients. This is did not break me out or cause any rashes. It felt nice going on my skin. It does pill if you put too much on at once. I found that if you apply small amounts at a time and gently pat the product in, it won't pill as much. After a few weeks, it started to smell weird. Not the typically spf smell, but something odd. Maybe I got a bad batch. But I stopped using it after I noticed the smell.

I use Cerave everything. Except this one. This leaves an oily film and clogs my pores. It causes me to break out on my face and get milia around my eyes. I choose to use the lightweight PM moisturizer and put a different brand of sunscreen on top during the day.

0 stars if i could. i’ve never left a product review in my life but DO NOT BUY THIS!! i’ve also never had a bad reaction so a skincare product. almost right after using this product i developed a red swollen rash around my mouth, nose, and on my cheeks. it’s been over 24 hours now and after taking benadryl and applying hydrocortisone cream it has still not gone away. it feels like a slightly itchy, tingly sun burn. i was wondering all day yesterday how this product could have caused this since it had such good reviews and because ive used cerave night time moisturizer before but then i looked at the 1 star reviews and it seems this is a pretty common problem. i graduate college tomorrow and will now have an red and irritated face. very disappointed, they need to discontinue this product or change the formula asap

This moisturizer does not absorb well at all. It clumps very easily into fine threadlike particles. The more you touch it, the more it clumps. Even in areas it does not clump, the sunscreen is sitll highly visible.

runoncoldfire - 2 months ago, Verified purchaser
I would not recommend this product despite being very loyal to the CeraVe brand. This sunscreen does not absorb well, and it leaves a white residue that pills on my skin. The few times I tired it I had to use a tissue to wipe away the white flecks. I do have combination dry/oily skin so that may have something to do with it, but I have never had this particular issue with any other sunscreen I’ve ever used. I do recommend the ultra light version of this product as I have not had a single issue since I switched.
