Cetaphil DailyAdvance Ultra Hydrating Lotion

I'm really not sure what possessed me to grab this bottle of moisturizer.  But after seeing that there are no parabens in it, I decided to go ahead and give it a try.  Years ago I had tried Cetaphil original moisturizer, and it did not moisturize enough for me.  I liked that it was fragrance free, but I had to put on 3 layers.

This did not disappoint.  One layer is generally all that I need, and I don't need to slather it on, either.  I used to use Dramatically Different Moisturizing lotion by Clinique, and I had to put on 4-5 layers, and still felt dry.  So, this is great!  The price point is good, you get a large bottle with a pump top (love those!) and you can get it while you are on a Target run instead of making a special trip to the department store.  I have sensitive skin, but this didn't seem to make it break out (I have oily T), but very dry cheeks.  This works out well for me.  I put it on all over and it works out fine.

Review: Ambi Even & Clear Targeted Mark Minimizer $11

I got this because I was curious to see if it would hold up to its claims. It says it "Visibly reduces dark marks and discolorations." It took about 4 months of usage. (1 oz. lasted me that long, and I used it as my facial moisturizer), and I say, yes!

Surprised? Me, too! I didn't think that it would actually work, but it does. On one unfortunate incident, excessive picking led to a new dark spot, that was just about gone 3 weeks later. I don't know if it works on everything. I have since developed new marks. So, I am on an embankment to fix my diet so as not to develop new marks. In the meanwhile, I've just started on tube #2, and I hope to be even skinned at the end of it.
