The Eucerin Moisturizer I've Stolen From the Boyfriend

On a recent trip to the States with the bf, Allan, we (of course) went to Target.  I have a feeling that I rave about Target all the time but let me reiterate how much I adore this huge, big box shop.  First of all, their color scheme involves red, which is my favorite color.  Second, their prices are out-of-this-world-fantastic and third, they have brands and products we just don't have in Canada.  Take the brand Eucerin for example.  Yes, we have a few of the body products in our Canadian drugstores but we DO NOT have the facial line.  Who knew that this awesome product line has everything from cleansers to redness relief night cream and, my personal fave, an SPF 30 moisturizer.

This whole hoopla came about when Allan ran out of his Clinique Moisturizer.  We were at the duty-free shop, perusing through the shelves, and could not find any men's moisturizers that contained an SPF.  After looking for quite some time, Allan got slightly frustrated and said, "I refuse to apply a sunscreen AND a moisturizer so the cream we buy has to do both."  Since there weren't any there, we moved on.  We drove the short way to Target who, low and behold, had a moisturizer/SPF 30 lotion for a measly $7.19.  I know, amazing.  So we bought it.
This miracle product is called Eucerin Everyday Protection Face Lotion.  I love Eucerin products because they are dermatologist recommended, non-comedogenic (so they won't clog your pores) and are completely fragrance free.  Though the bottle is small, a little push of the pump goes a very long way.

This amount came out of the container with one little push of the pump. (I will say that for my face, I only need about half this amount.)  However, it's a nice lightweight lotion (not cream) so the texture is light and absorbs very quickly into the skin.

Pros:
Fragrance-free
Non-comedogenic
Dermatologist recommended
SPF 30
Perfect for sensitive skin
Non-greasy and very lightweight
Price point: $7.19 for a bottle

Cons: 
Not available in Canada
Too much product dispensed in one pump

I am sooooooo loving this moisturizer.  Actually, Allan has taken the Eucerin bottle and hidden it from me because I'm constantly using it.  He's in luck that I am going back to the States this weekend so I can pick up my own bottle.  Ladies, if you're looking for an inexpensive moisturizer that is non-greasy and provides the perfect amount of SPF, I highly recommend you try this out.
