Best for Dry to very dry skin that wants a thick face-and-body cream.
The thick Cetaphil cream for dry to very dry skin, sold for face and body. U.S. News ranks a Cetaphil moisturizer near the top of its face-moisturizer list, but the sample there is the daily facial lotion, not this cream. Lab Muffin names this cream among the big budget tubs she skips because it feels greasy on her. She adds that these creams work for many people, especially with drier skin or in cool, dry climates. It suits skin that feels tight and flaky. On combination skin it leaves a film, and some people report closed comedones. If your skin is only slightly dry, the lotion is the product those rankings mean.
