Cetaphil Healthy Renew Skin Tightening Night Cream 1.7 Oz, Wrinkle Repair Cream for Face with Peptides, Retinol Alternative Cream For Sensitive Skin, Fragrance Free

I’ve been using the entire Cetaphil Healthy Renew line for over a year now, and this night cream has become an essential part of my routine. As someone who can’t tolerate retinol, I was looking for an effective alternative that would help with aging skin concerns without the irritation. Results I’ve seen: After consistent use over the past year, I’ve noticed genuine improvements in both my skin texture and fine lines. My skin feels smoother and looks more refined, and the fine lines around my eyes and forehead are visibly reduced. These aren’t overnight results - it took a few months to really see the difference - but the improvements have been steady and lasting. What I appreciate about this cream: The formula is gentle enough for nightly use without any of the sensitivity, redness, or peeling I experienced when I tried retinol products in the past. It absorbs well without feeling heavy or greasy, which is important for a night cream since I don’t want it transferring to my pillowcase. The texture is rich but not overly thick. A little goes a long way, so the jar lasts longer than I initially expected. It layers nicely with the other products in the Healthy Renew line. Worth noting: This is a commitment product - you need patience and consistency to see results. If you’re looking for dramatic overnight changes, this isn’t it. But if you want steady, sustainable improvement in skin texture and fine lines without harsh active ingredients, it delivers. The jar packaging isn’t the most hygienic compared to a pump, though I use a small spatula to keep things clean. Bottom line: For anyone who can’t use retinol but still wants anti-aging benefits, this night cream is worth trying. After a year of use, I can confidently say it’s made a real difference in my skin’s appearance and texture. I’ll continue repurchasing this and using it as part of my nighttime routine.

Love this night cream! Has really smoothed out my skin tone. The smell is horrific when you first apply it. Give it a minute, and the smell goes away

This is a great moisturizer. The consistency is just right for a night cream, it doesn't irritate my sensitive skin, and my dry, flaky patches have greatly improved since I started using it. The downside, for me, is the smell. I say 'for me' because I'm beginning to think it doesn't smell bad on everyone. I've noticed that some of the reviews mention a bad smell, but nowhere near all. When I sniff the cream in the jar, it smells fine; but as soon as it comes into contact with my skin, I get an overpowering whiff of rancid cream cheese. It is truly awful. My daughter coincidentally bought the same product and she doesn't smell it; to her, it smells the same on her skin as it does in the jar. I sniffed her jar and my jar side by side and they smelled the same. It is such a strange phenomenon. Now I just have to decide if I want to continue holding my breath while I apply and allow the product to soak in, or try to find a new moisturizer....

I love this cream. The smoothest texture, yet. I've been using it for a while and my face is much softer and smoother texture. I use 2 other Cetaphil creams on face and body...great products. I did away with a hand lotion and only use Cetaphil and Cerave in it's place. Great pricing, too. The amount of the face cream could be more, but a little does go a long way.

I enjoy using this cream because it’s easy to apply and soaks into my skin leaving it free of sticky residue. My skin is sensitive it’s perfect for me and leaves my skin soft and pretty. It is lightweight so it doesn’t cake up on my skin.

Leaves my skin nourished and acne free I can tell my skin is healthier with this product. A little goes a long way and it’s not greasy

I like cream. A little goes a long way so I don't have to use as much product. It feels nice and absorbs very well. My skin didn't have any bad reactions to it either. The skin feels really nice. There is a smell to it, a lot of other reviews have pointed it out as well. But to me, it smells like parmesan cheese, and I like parmesan cheese so I'm not going to complain. The smell doesn't stick around long either.

Horrible smell but otherwise great night moisturizer!
