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.

    I love this stuff and have repurchased countless times! I have dry skin and use Retin A Micro 0.8% so the rest of my skin routine is focused on hydration. This wash is the least drying/irritating...

    I like this stuff. It's very mild and liquidy, and doesn't foam up. I'm not sure if it's extremely hydrating, but it certainly isn't drying. I have quite dry skin already courtesy of our subzero...

    Gentle cleanser that doesn't irritate my sensitive skin! It's also pretty hydrating... I don't feel like my skin is tight after using it. It's *okay* at removing make-up but not all of it. Not...

    Hated this at first - thought the packaging looked too clinical and the product itself had the texture and slip of conditioner. I was convinced I was going to break out from it, but after 4 weeks...

    This cleanser would be good if it was more cleansing. For people who don't wear products on their face and just want to freshen up, this is a good product.

    Oh no. I wanted to love this so badly. I have dry skin and needed a gentle cleanser that didn't strip away my face's moisture barrier. Bonus: this is SLS-free and doesn't have a scent....
