Q: Does this work on really dry skin? Like skin that is so dry it itches a lot?

submitted by watchbuyer3 - 2 years ago
  • A: Hi there! Thank you for reaching out about our Daily Moisturizing Face and Body Lotion for Normal to Dry Skin. For your dry skin type, we recommend our Intensive Moisturizing Lotion. This lotion is formulated with three essential ceramides, MVE Delivery Technology, and Hydro-Urea™ Technology to intensely hydrate extra-dry skin and help restore and strengthen the skin barrier without any greasy or sticky residue. Dry skin can feel itchy and uncomfortable all over, but the right moisturizing lotion can help restore the look and feel of soothed, hydrated skin. CeraVe Intensive Moisturizing Lotion is developed with dermatologists to relieve and defend against five key signs of dryness—itching, tightness, roughness, scaling/flaking, and redness or discoloration due to dryness. This fast-acting body lotion penetrates the skin's surface layers to deeply hydrate without leaving behind any greasy or sticky residue. It’s also formulated to help restore the skin barrier, which is often compromised in those with dry to extra-dry skin. We hope this is helpful!

    Brand expert
  • A: Hi there! We recommend checking out our Daily Moisturizing Lotion or our Daily Moisturizing Cream. These two moisturizing formulas differ mainly in their texture. Our Moisturizing Cream features a rich, yet non-greasy cream texture that makes it ideal for those with normal to dry skin on their face or body. It contains petrolatum, an occlusive ingredient that helps seal in moisture by creating a physical barrier on the skin’s surface. Our Daily Moisturizing Lotion, on the other hand, is designed with a lightweight, oil-free lotion texture that may be better suited for normal to oily skin on your face or body. It contains beneficial ingredients such as glycerin and dimethicone. All of our formulas are fragrance-free, certified by dermatologists. We hope this is helpful!

Q: I was wondering if this moisturizer will cause breakouts or clogs pores.

  • A: Hi! This was said in the other answer, but this product is noncomedogenic, meaning that it will not get stuck in your pores and cause you to break out. But, sometimes certain products can react to different people’s skin differently, so it could cause a breakout, but it is not very likely. I hope this helps!

Q: Hi does this help with bumpy or itchy skin??

submitted by Hami - 5 years ago
  • A: Hi! First off, i want to say that this product has helped SO MUCH with reducing those types of reactions on my skin, so I would recommend trying it if your skin is bumpy or itchy. Also, make sure to check that you are not having an allergic reaction to something if your skin is feeling itchy. Lastly, if you see tiny red bumps up your cheeks, the most common cause is OVER moisturizing, so swapping to this moisturizer might help because it is very lightweight. I hope this helps!

If you have bumpy skin, we recommend trying out our SA Lotion for Rough & Bumpy Skin which is formulated to smooth and soothe dry skin. We hope you can give it a try and see great results!

    Quick daily moisturizer

    This was very lightweight and easy to blend it into the skin, it’s definitely a quick daily lotion that doesn’t need to be massaged in too much. It felt nice and quickly absorbed, not an oily feeling.

    My go-to for lightweight hydration

    CeraVe Daily Moisturizing Lotion is a staple in my routine! The formula feels lightweight while still leaving my skin nourished and hydrated. I love that I can use it on both my face and body. I used it during my post-chemical peel routine, and I also reach for it on tretinoin nights for the sandwich method, applying moisturizer before and after my tretinoin. It’s a reliable favorite when my skin needs extra moisture. In my hand photo, I blended it in towards the knuckles, and left some unblended below, so you can see the consistency and how it looks once rubbed in. A simple, versatile lotion that I love and keep reaching for!

    I've used this daily lotion for a couple years now. It's the only thing I put on my face, specifically when my skin is dry, but it definitely does the job.

    Pretty good but has some downfalls.

    As someone with very dry, very sensitive, and often dehydrated skin, this is a great lotion to use on my face. I’ve been using it for about 2 months now and only have a few complaints. First, I have to use two layers for it to adequately hydrate my face, and since I use this on my body as well I go through the 16oz bottle very fast. I’m not happy with that aspect given the $1 per ounce pricing. Second, this product does not work well with my adapalene gel, nor does the Cerave cream, in my experience. When I use the two products together they bunch up on my face and don’t sink in properly. Because of that I need to have another face cream on hand at all times since I am acne prone. On the plus side, this product really helped heal my skin barrier. I was suffering from extremely sensitized and dehydrated skin, so I changed my skincare routine to only washing with water then using this lotion. Within 2 weeks, my face looked and felt so much better, more comfy, and more hydrated. Overall, I’ll continue using this product for now since I’ve been happy with the results.

    Muy bueno para una hidratación básica

    Honestly, I really like this CeraVe moisturizer! It’s simple, gentle, and leaves my skin felling so soft and hydrated. If you want extra hydration, you can definitely pair it with a serum o essence, but I think it work really well on its own. I also think that it can fit into skincare routine for different ages and skin types :3

    Terrible Reformulation

    I used to absolutely love CeraVe. Their daily moisturizing lotion was my go-to and I used it on my face and body for years. I had skin testing done at my allergist's office and learned that I am very reactive to phenoxyethanol. This lotion was one of the few that did not use this awful ingredient that is currently being used to replace parabens. Surprise! The lotion has been reformulated to contain phenoxyethanol! I can no longer use this product and most CeraVe products because they have chosen to cave to complete misinformation about parabens and public ignorance of cosmetic science. Parabens are safe; phenoxyethanol is NOT safe. Many people have reactions to it. This is no longer a dermatologist-safe brand. Vanicream is a good alternative for those looking for something safe for sensitive skin.

    Budget friendly, and skin approved!

    I’ve used this CeraVe lotion for about 9 months now daily. I’ve noticed while using it that my skin hasn’t been dry at all as it has been in the past, as well as not having to break the bank for a good lotion that makes me feel good. Everytime I have purchased this product it lasts me a long time, and never disappoints. I’m happy with the quantity of lotion for the price, the way it makes my skin feel, and how it is fragrance free. Everything about this lotion has me keep coming back to it!

    My everyday must

    I keep my skin care routine very simple and this is an essential. I have dry/combination skin depending on the season and this hydrates my skin without it making my skin feel oily. I have used several high-end skincare products and this is still my go to. The quality is great for having such a good price point.

    Burning sensation and breakout

    The ingredients in the bottle I got was WAY different than stated. I bought it specifically because it's supposedly had parabens, but no, it has phenoxyethanol. As a lot of people are starting to learn phenoxyethanol creates a burning sensation and causes skin irritation, rash, and breakouts if your skin has a damaged barrier or you use exfoliants. I'm so mad because I thought I finally found something that would work wonders for my skin like it used to, but I can't use the bottle I received because the ingredients are not ok. I really wish brands would go back to using parabens, they were wonderful.

    Solid daily lotion

    It kept my skin moisturized without feeling oily. It’s a little bit of a watery texture and I didn’t think it was doing much until I started using a body butter for roughly a couple weeks and my skin started to feel itchy again. I’d recommend it as a solid daily lotion to keep you decently moisturized. It also lasted me a long time.

    Amazing lotion

    I love this lotion! I have dry skin especially in the winter and this is the best lotion for it. It’s super hydrating and you can tell within the first day of wearing it, that it’ll leave you skin looking hydrated for a long time. The best part is there’s no smell to it and no breakouts.
