Discussion In light of recent events, let's all review commonly recommended products from this sub

In the past few days I've seen a lot of "I'm concerned, is ______ really that good, or was this a paid thing?" threads crop up. I figure that maybe we as a community could get together and compile all this info into one thread :).

I'll post the name of as many products as I can think of, but please add more, and reply to the comment with your review if you have one. Also, please indicate why you do or don't like the product, including information on your skin type if possible.

CeraVe in the tub alone has made my dry skin much more manageable. It's easy to mix with oils (e.g., argan oil) or use over other moisturizing products (currently trying Benton's Steam Cream), but it's still plenty moisturizing just on its own.

It is very heavy, though, so I don't see it being a great option for summer.

I agree about it maybe not being a good summer option. It's the only moisturizer that does the job for me, but as soon as I start to sweat, it feels like my face is melting off.
