| I have to start off by saying that every winter I suffer from dry, cracked hands. I'm talking about splits on my fingers that cause unbelievable pain. This goes on every winter all winter long. The only time I get relief is if we head south for a vacation! I've been using the Cetaphil lotion on my hands for about eight days now. I cannot believe the difference. Here in New York, we're going through some of the coldest temperatures we've had in years. This is what usually triggers my skin to split. My hands are fine!! This is honestly unbelievable. I have already recommended this product to several people. This product has won me over big time!! If this product hadn't been listed on the drugstore.com's test drive page, I never would have found it. I have tried every lotion ever recommended to me and nothing every worked. |

| Although Cetaphil Moisturizing Lotion is not a product I'd use as a hand lotion, it's the perfect solution for dry ""winter skin"" as a body lotion. It really does leave skin soft and silky. As a bonus, it's unscented, so I lessen the risk of becoming a walking potpourri when using other products that are scented. Great product! |
 Okay, but can't compare to Nutraderm |
| I began using this earlier this year when I discovered that my local CVS had discontinued carrying Nutraderm's Advanced Formula Therapeutic Lotion, which is the improved version of the facial moisturizer recommended to me by my dermatologist over 15 years ago & which I have used consistently & happily for all that time. The quality of Cetaphil's lotion, although almost identically priced, isn't even remotely close to Nutraderm's. The Cetaphil lotion is heavy, greasy & stings. It sits on top of my skin & makes it feel oily for hours. It also affects my foundation adversely. I just found out that Amazon also carries the Nutraderm, so I purchsed two 16 oz bottle for less than $10 & tossed the bottle of Cetaphil, even though close to 12 oz were left. Couldn't be happier to have my Nurtaderm back. If you're interested, I've posted a review of Nutraderm separately. |
