Reviews

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Hydrating and sinks in nicely This has a really lovely cooling effect when it comes into contact with the skin. It smooths into the skin easily and makes a real difference to hydration levels straight away. My skin definitely feels better for it. There is no pilling of the product either. The cream is low odor but it does smell a bit like pva glue. It doesn’t bother me, but you could mix some esssential oils into it if you prefer a nicer smell. My skin is at the age where I’ve started to notice the top layers thinning and ageing - I can’t say that I have noticed a difference with firmness (yet) but I will persevere. It def makes my skin feel smoother and more hydrated.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Fast Absorbing This unscented moisturiser is a medium-thick consistency that absorbs into the skin immediately, making it really easy for when you're rushed and need to dress straight after. It instantly made my skin feel more hydrated and gave a slight sheen to it. A huge bonus for me is that even after a shower, I still felt that my skin was moisturised. The bottle says to apply twice a day and I honestly find this ridiculous, unless you have severely dry. There's absolutely no need. However, perhaps this is the way you get the "firming" benefits, which I really didn't notice any of, just using the cream once a day. This cream is a favourite in my house now.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Exactly what my skin needs in the colder weather. I’ve been using this lotion for the past week, and I’m already so impressed. The pump bottle makes it super easy to use right out of the shower. The formula itself is lightweight and sinks into the skin almost instantly, so you don't have to deal with that sticky, greasy feeling before putting clothes on. Even though it takes about 4 weeks to see the full firming results, I can already feel a massive difference in my skin's hydration. My skin feels incredibly soft and smooth, It feels super moisturizing especially on areas that usually feel a bit thin or dry. It is also completely fragrance free and hasn't caused any irritation at all.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Firming lotion Wow! What a luxurious and creamy lotion. The brand hasn’t been been one that I have used before. However, it is a serious contender for a hydrating and firming lotion that really has impact. Upon applying into my skin I noticed there was a very subtle scent and the lotion absorbed quickly into my skin and was not sticky and did not leave a residue. I have noticed that my skin has felt more firm around my tummy, lower arm and thighs. The only thing that I would recommend improving this even further would be with the scent. It is clean smelling but I sent that maybe was a little bit more on the coconut or fruity side would appeal to a wider audience.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Perfect for whole family My whole family absolutely loved using this cetaphil skin activator. My girls especially loved it. The texture is lovely and smooth, lightweight making it easy to apply and absorb in the skin. I particularly liked that it doesn’t feel sticky ot greasy. It gives a skin soft, fresh and healthy appearance. The consistency is just right, not too thick or too runny and packaging is practical and easy to use. This product is brilliant especially during winter months when skin needs extra care and hydration. Overall, a fantastic product that the whole family enjoys using. Definitely one I would recommend and happily purchase again.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Moisturising I've been using this product, sent to me from #Influenster to try, for a short time now, and i am really enjoying using it. It says it visibly improves skin firmness in 4 weeks. I haven't been using it that long, and already my skin feels slightly firmer and smoother. I use mine every day after showering and also before bed. It's suitable for ageing, thinning or fragile skin, all 3 off which relates to me, so im hoping to see improvements in all of these areas. It's unscented, which I like, and although it's quite thick, it absorbs quickly into the skin leaving it moisturised and smooth. I will be finishing the bottle and the results will be more noticeable.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Tight skin be gone! What’s not to love about Cetaphil - One of me and my family’s favourite brands. I really love the new hydrating and firming lotion, the texture is just perfect for my skin, silky and oozes into my skin beautifully without feeling greasy. As I approached my 40s I also noticed my skin isn’t as firm as it used to be so I’m actively trying to boost my skins barrier. This cream definitely makes my skin feel wonderful, that tight feeling I once had is fading and my skin just feels much more comfortable. The scent is barely noticeable and suits my sensitive skin really well. I’d definitely recommend.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from A beautifully hydrating body moisturiser with a rich texture that keeps my skin soft and moisturised all day. I've really enjoyed using this Cetaphil body lotion. It applies beautifully and my skin absorbs it effortlessly, leaving it feeling soft, and moisturised throughout the day. The texture is slightly thicker than a traditional lotion, which I actually love, especially as we head into the colder months when my skin needs a little extra nourishment. I've experienced no irritation or adverse reactions, and it's become a regular part of my evening routine after showering. I find myself reaching for it time and time again because it leaves my skin feeling comfortable and hydrated without any fuss. It's a great everyday body moisturiser and one I'll definitely be repurchasing as my new staple.
