CeraVe Hydrating Oil Face Cleanser

Non greasy but moisturizing.

With a name like “cleansing oil” I thought this would provide moisture to my often dry skin. I don’t have blemishes and often just wash my face with olive oil and warm water. This gave me tiny pimples and left my face dry. I wanted to use it up, so I tried it on my body. My naturally supple skin is now dry and itchy. No matter how much hydration I add after a shower, my skin feels parched.

I recently got into trying a few of Cerave's facial cleanser. While their other facial cleaners work well based on your personal skin type, this one is my favorite. I am a 42 year old male who does a complete shave on both face & head every morning. My problem area like most men is my lower neck where it's easy for my skin type to get razor irritation, and facial cleaners by other companies made my scalp feel dried out. Since using Cerave's Foaming Oil Cleaner it greatly improves the quality of my daily shave & makes my skin feel soft and moisturized. I also really like how it rinses easily when your done washing your face. It is gentle enough I can use it again in the evening when I take my evening shower, even when using it twice in the same day it doesn't irritate my skin or make it feel dried out. I hope if there's any other men out there who have sensitive skin like I do, I hope they see this review and give it a try and hope it works for them like it does me. I was one of the guys who believed "There's no way a facial cleanser can improve your daily shave that much" but was proven wrong.

The CeraVe Hydrating Facial Cleanser has become a staple in my skincare routine. I love that it gently cleanses without stripping my skin, leaving it soft, refreshed, and hydrated. The formula feels creamy and soothing, and it has the perfect balance of removing dirt and oil while still maintaining my skin’s natural moisture barrier. I also appreciate the added ceramides and hyaluronic acid that make it feel more like a treatment than just a cleanser. It’s simple, effective, and safe for everyday use—definitely one of those products I always repurchase. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I was able to get rid of my cystic acne using the cerave salicylic acid cleanser and it has worked for years. I started using this cleanser for about a month or two and bam now I have cystic acne again😭 It’s super painful and I finally figured out it was from this cleanser, do not buy if you have a history of cystic acne!

Gentle on skin. Doesn’t leave your face oily. Rinses well.

Sadly this irritated my skin badly. I have been diagnosed with rosacea after using this, which I have never had before. Maybe it's too harsh compared to the aqua hydrating version.

Horrible product. I had fairly clear skin. Everybody was hyping up this product so much I had to try it. I try the next woke with up two small pimples on my left cheek. I went back to regular face wash clear my skin. I just tried again for the second time now have 3 disgusting pimples on both my cheeks. Don’t waste your time and money on this product.

This oil turns into foam formula, this cleanser is perfect for all skin types—a rarity in the cleanser aisle! It leaves my skin clean, removing all makeup, dirt and debris without over-drying. Sometimes oil cleansers can be heavy for humid summers, but what I love about this cleanser is that it suds up to a perfect lather—effectively cleansing the skin of any dirt, oil and debris while keeping the skin barrier intact.

I’ve been using this cleanser for 10 days already improvise a great smooth skin is fragrance free hyaluronic acid . Effective clean your skin without feeling tight highly recommended

Very good for cleaning face

Absolutely disappointed in this cleanser. I have very dry skin and was trying this out to see if it helped. It made my face even drier. It feels more like a hand soap than a facial cleanser.

Love the product. Oil cleansers always work great for my oily/combination skin, however, the smell of this cleanser is off putting. Has a chemical type of scent.

for any sensitive ot acne prone skin cerave is the way to go this oil cleanser changed my life my skin ever since i started using this has changed completely tje texture and bumps on my forbear sre gone

Smells clean and has good texture. For me it only worked a little while that could be because of my sensitive skin. The packaging was secure. I’m sad that it wasn’t for me I’ve been trying to find something that works.

This cleanser is super gentle and doesn’t dry out my skin. It foams lightly, removes sunscreen and makeup well, and leaves my face soft and clean. No irritation, no tight feeling. I love that it has ceramides and no fragrance. Perfect for everyday use!

Such a good everyday cleanser, is very gentle on my sensitive skin and definitely keeps it hydrated! Packaging is very durable and you get a lot of product for the price. Make sure to lather it up well in your hands before use otherwise you may need to double cleanse to properly get rid of makeup😊

Excelent, 100% recommended for dry skin. It leaves my skin feeling dry. It's the best cleanser I've ever tried—and I've tried many. My skin is very sensitive. Expensive products used to irritate me until I found this one.

I’ve loved this cleanser since the moment I got it. It’s super creamy and removes all of my stubborn makeup within the first wash, keeping me feeling hydrated, and I never need to cleanse a second time! I have pretty sensitive skin, so thankfully there is no fragrance that irritates it! The bottle makes it easy to pump into your hand and just with the first pump I am ready to go!

I struggle with extremely dry skin — the kind that cracks and flakes — and this oil is the only thing that truly works. It instantly makes my face feel soft, calm, and deeply hydrated. It’s gentle, soothing, and gives my skin that healthy glow. Pair it with a moisturizer right after, and you’re set for the day. If your skin needs real healing, this oil is a holy grail. Total must-buy.
