Product Review: Cetaphil Moisturizing Cream

I received the Cetaphil Moisturizing Cream free from Influenster in the Jingle VoxBox to test out. I was excited to get this Cetaphil Cream as I fondly remember it being the lotion I'd see in my Grandmother's bathroom. Personally, my typical lotion is store-brand lotion with cocoa butter, so Cetaphil has never been on my radar outside of seeing it in my Grandmother's bathroom.

 
I've used the Cetaphil Moisturizing Cream for about a week now, at least once a day on my hands and occasionally on my feet and I have to say I do like it. Keep reading to get my honest review.

What I like

• It easily absorbs into my skin
• Doesn't leave my skin feeling greasy
• A little goes a long way
• Can be used on my hands, feet, elbows, etc.
• Doesn't have a fragrance

What I don't like

• The packaging isn't a pump bottle but a tub
• The price is a bit higher than I normally spend on lotion

Final verdict

While I've liked using the Cetaphil Moisturizing Cream I'll have to think about whether I want to pay 3x more than I currently do for lotion. If I lived in a colder climate I think the price might be worth it, but living in Florida I don't have much use for such an intense lotion.
