So even for oily skin, you can use it without worrying about excess oil.
ConsIt's not completely fragrance-free, and there's a plastic-like scent to it.

The moisturizing power seems fine. After receiving the product, I only used the toner and this product, not the cream, and there was no tightness or dryness, and no white flakes came up. I was surprised to use a cream-like texture after only using serum products with a runny texture so far. It was easy to spread like a lotion when applying, but it was a bit sticky when layering. There is no slipping, so when I apply this product and do my makeup, it doesn't slide around. Watery products need about 5-10 minutes to absorb, and they can still slip, but this product doesn't slip, which is great. When I apply cream or lotion, my skin gets oily and produces a lot of sebum while I'm working, but this product doesn't produce much sebum! From the first application until now, I haven't had any skin troubles or pimples.
ConsThe fragrance is a bit like an old-fashioned lotion smell, even though it's supposed to be fragrance-free. It's only a tiny bit, and it goes away quickly, but I don't like it. The amount is small, so I end up using less when I use it.

With a non-thick, fluid formula, it absorbs quickly. It has a moderate oiliness and finishes without any stickiness, providing a pleasant usage experience. The fragrance is almost unscented, and the adhesive-like scent I noticed when using other Cetaphil products is barely perceptible. Once applied, the scent completely disappears, and you can't even smell it, which should be great for those sensitive to fragrances!
ConsWhile it applies thinly and absorbs rapidly, there is an uncomfortable, stuffy feeling after application. Additionally, I don't feel the product provides the exceptional 48-hour moisturizing power as claimed. When I first applied it, I thought I detected an old cosmetic-like scent, and sure enough, the product was manufactured a year ago. I was surprised to receive an item in such a condition, as the box was a bit dirty. Though I haven't tested many samples, this is the first time I've encountered a product in this state from the brand, which has dampened my previous positive impression of Cetaphil. Furthermore, since I'm unsure if the fragrance and usage experience are representative of a fresh product or just this older one, I feel uneasy. Thankfully, I haven't experienced any skin issues yet, but it's concerning for a basic skincare item. Considering the price-to-volume ratio, I don't think I will repurchase this product.
