Okay so last year I all of a sudden became very sensitive to all my favourite facial cleansers and moisturizers. As I struggled to find anything that wouldn’t burn and Inflame my skin I became very stressed and started to breakout pretty significantly. I’m 38 and I’ve never had more than a period pimple and all of a sudden I had a swollen face full of deep painful acne. I will admit it.. I picked at the first few until I learned first had why your not supposed to touch your face. I quickly stopped that but since I have very sensitive skin everytime I washed my face they would still pop and bleed. So now I had acne and I was still reacting to all the products I tried and 3 months later it seemed like it as never going to get any better. I don’t wear a lot of makeup anymore (again sensitive skin issues) and I was really insecure about my skin especially since I am starting to get age spots and wrinkles and didn’t expect to be dealing with acne at this age of my life. My face looked so different to me and for the first time ever I want comfortable with people seeing my skin. I did lots of research and tried lots of products before seeing cerave recommended for people with really sensitive skin and acne. I was skeptical at first because it didn’t say anything about helping with acne on the product but after only a week of use I could already see a dramatic difference. Month by month there would longer breaks between my major breakouts (it was non stop all the time full face acne up until that point) with less and less pimples in between. By about 4 months into using the product I was back to only having the odd period pimple. I honestly couldn’t believe it. I am SO thankful that I stumbled across the recommendation to pick up the cerave cleanser and moisturizer because I probably never would have reached for it otherwise. The packaging is plain and it’s very affordable so when hunting for a saving Grace I would have likely passed it by. I’ve been using these products for approx 10 months now and they are the holy grail of my facial care routine. I am now able to branch out and use a few other things occasionally but i always end my day with cerave. My face is hydrated but not sticky or greasy and though I may still have scarring I don’t have any painful breakouts at all anymore. I have tried to get my bf to start using these regularly as he has dry patches on his skin but he’s just not the self care kind of man. I would absolutely recommend this product to everyone. I knew it was helping soon after using it and was so impressed I took pictures with the bottle in the chance that in the future I might ever do a review on it. I had never reviewed a product before but i knew if I was ever going to recommend something it would likely be this. So yes if you have sensitive skin and/or acne and haven’t yet tried cerave go get yourself some and prepare to be amazed.
The photos were taken right before using the product, a few weeks into using it and now approx 10 months later.

I will admit that I was hesitant to try a new facial moisturizer after struggling to find one that doesn’t irritate my very sensitive skin. I was okay with almost any product until my 30’s when all of a sudden almost everything would cause redness and breakouts. I have been using another product successfully for a year but really wanted to find something new for daytime use. I received a mini trial package and I must say that it is amazing. It delivers exactly what it claims to. My skin feels hydrated, soft and even appears more youthful. I experience zero redness or irritation during or after application of the product and this surprised me because it does have fragrance. I really enjoy the fresh scent but it is rather strong so if you don’t like fragrance for that reason this might not be the moisturizer for you. Otherwise I would recommend it for everyone. Being so impressed I plan on purchasing the product as soon as I see it in store. -
