description

Hydrating cleanser for normal-to-dry skin. A cleanser can remove dirt, makeup and other debris, but a hydrating cleanser, like CeraVe Hydrating Facial Cleanser, can do all that without disrupting the skin’s natural protective barrier or stripping the skin of its natural moisture. Created with dermatologists, CeraVe Hydrating Facial Cleanser is a gentle face wash with ingredients like ceramides and hyaluronic acid that work to restore the skin’s natural barrier to help the skin lock in moisture.

Works well for my sensitive skin, especially in winter. I massage it into dry skin, let it work through for a few seconds, and then rinse with warm water. It removes makeup including mascara.

I use this after I remove my makeup with micellar water. It's great. My skin feels moisturized after use. It doesn't have much of a scent which I prefer. Since I use Retin A, I stay away from...

Everybody recommends it for dry and sensitive skin but it is a huge disappointment. This cleanser doesn't cleanse my skin well at all. It didn't improve the texture of my skin at all and it gave...

I am blown away by this cleanser. It truly is hydrating and the only 2nd step cleanser that doesn't irritate my skin. I definitely don't think this could be used as a stand-alone cleanser to remove...

I’m on my second one. I like a very gentle cleanser. A first cleanse (oil based) is ESSENTIAL if you wear makeup. There is nothing wrong with this. It doesn’t make your face feel tight. Even for...

Does it work? Yes it does! Do you need it no! Same as using normal soap, I wouldn't pay for another cleanser, because I think that soap is doing the same job. Seems to have a lot of marketing...
