I used the CeraVe one for quite a while because I thought it was the best, and then I tried the Cetaphil one because it was on sale and: I like it way more! I think the high petrolatum content is what is so great for my skin!

What are your preferences between these community faves? Or do you have another preference altogether?

I haven't tried the Cetaphil moisturizing cream but I have tried the "Cetaphil Facial Moisturizer Dry Skin" and I really liked it. Its very similar to the Cetaphil moisturizing cream from what I can tell.

The CeraVe moisturizing cream is nice but when my skin is sensitive it can actually burn a bit when applying, which Cetaphil Facial Moisturizer Dry Skin never did. Unfortunately though it made my skin feel a bit greasy so that's why I didn't stick with it. Perhaps I will give it another go in the winter when my skin is super dry!

Currently I'm trying the Geek & Gorgeous Happier Barrier moisturizer and I reeeally like it! Actually I'm trying multiple products from Geek & Gorgeous right now and I'm becoming a bit of a fan-girl!

Yes! The CeraVe one can really burn sometimes not sure why…
