Overall:
CeraVe Moisturizing Cream is a thick, creamy moisturizer that does an excellent job of hydrating and healing dry, cracked skin. It's non-irritating and fragrance-free, making it a good option for those with sensitive skin. The only downside is that the cream can be a bit too heavy for some during the summer months. It can also take a while to sink in, so you may want to apply it at night before bed. Otherwise, this is an excellent moisturizing cream that should be part of your skincare routine.
Our experience with the CeraVe Moisturizing Cream was very positive: the body cream was thick and creamy, yet not greasy, and it did an excellent job of keeping our skin feeling smooth and hydrated. It also helped to heal dry skin and cracked skin.
Product Claims:
"While a compromised skin barrier can lead to dryness and itching, a moisturizing cream with hyaluronic acid and ceramides can help. By hydrating the skin and restoring its natural barrier, a cream with these ingredients can help those with even dry to very dry skin improve the look and feel of their skin.
CeraVe Moisturizing Cream includes 3 essential ceramides that work together to lock in skin's moisture and help restore your skin’s protective barrier. MVE technology encapsulates ceramides to ensure efficient delivery within the skin’s barrier and slow release over time. Supporting your protective skin barrier, long after you’ve finish applying. Developed with dermatologists and suitable for dry and very dry skin on the face and body, this rich, non-greasy, fast-absorbing moisturizing cream features our patented MVE Delivery Technology to release a steady stream of moisturizing ingredients throughout the day and night. CeraVe Moisturizing Cream with ceramides is fragrance free."
Amazon user product honest review:
"I am a doctor. Not a dermatologist though. In our world when it comes to derm issue we have a saying: "if the skin is too wet, then dry it; if it is too dry then wet it; if this doesn't work, then use steroids!". I have struggled with a dry skin for a long time and have used a lot of different emollients and moisturizing creams. My face was often red, and would peel off. I really though I had some autoimmune condition, and tried a course of steroids. I tried this cream, and did wonders for me (FYI, I don't own stocks in the company and do not benefit in any way from writing this review!)."
