Obsessed!
The only face wash I use! I have sensitive skin that tends to be on the dry-side, and this is simply the best face wash out there. I use it twice a day and never break out as long as I'm being consistent. It rinses off easy, which is especially important if you ever wash off in the sink. 10/10 recommend. A great value!

I’ve really enjoyed using the CeraVe Hydrating Cream-to-Foam Cleanser. It starts as a creamy texture and transforms into a gentle foam that cleanses my skin without stripping it. My skin always feels soft, comfortable, and well-hydrated after using it. It removes sunscreen and light makeup easily, and I like that it doesn’t cause any breakouts or irritation. Overall, it’s a reliable everyday cleanser that keeps my skin clean and balanced.

I’ve been using this cleansing soap for a couple of weeks now, and so far I’m really enjoying it. Even though it doesn’t foam at all which felt a bit strange at first. I’ve realized that it’s actually a good thing. It rinses off easily, and my skin feels clean and comfortable afterwards.

Good everyday cleanser, not ideal for makeup.
This cleanser is very gentle and feels nice on the skin. It doesn’t foam much for me and doesn’t remove makeup completely, so I prefer to use it as a second cleanser. It works well for sensitive skin.
1 reply from Consumer Care Center team - 15 days ago
Hi there! Thank you for sharing your experience with our Hydrating Cream-to-Foam Cleanser. We’re glad it feels gentle and works well for your sensitive skin. You’re right — while it provides a soft, hydrating cleanse, it may not fully remove heavier makeup for everyone. Using it as a second cleanse is a great approach! We appreciate your feedback and will share it with our team. If you’d like help finding a makeup-removing first cleanser to pair with it, we’re happy to assist! You can reach us at 888-768-2915, Mon–Fri, 9:00 am – 5:30 pm ET.

Good cleanser.
This is a very good cleanser that feels like moisturizer when applying. It takes off my makeup and is very gentle on my skin ! It isn’t a foamy lather which is what I’m used to but it’s a nice creamy feeling. It’s a lot for the price of 8fl oz. And it’s in a cute bottle that I don’t mind having on my sink.

NOT a hydration cleanser & NOT a breakout prevente
This cleaner is NOT worth your money! It may be easy to find, but it makes your skin dry and break out even more than before. I tried using it for a week and it took me months to bring my skin back to what it used to be. Please be careful and test the product on your hands or somewhere else first if you decide to buy it.

I used this creamy foam cleanser from CeraVi. I like the consistency; it's not too runny, lathers well, and does a great job of removing impurities from my face. Its formula and ingredients are gentle, so I'm comfortable using it on my dry and sensitive skin.

Good for oily skin
I have combination skin and I typically use the hydrating cream cleanser but decided to give this one a try because it removes make up. Unfortunately I felt like this one stripped my skin and left it feeling dry. I think this would be great for someone with super oily skin. The packaging was good and the pump works great!
