Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting Up Your Skincare Routine
Integrating the CeraVe Hydrating Cleanser into your daily routine is straightforward:
- Morning: Use as the first step to cleanse your face, removing any overnight impurities.
- Evening: Use as the first step to remove daily grime and light makeup. For heavier makeup or SPF, consider a pre-cleanse with an oil-based remover before using the CeraVe Hydrating Cleanser.
- Application: Dispense a small amount onto your fingertips. Gently massage onto wet skin in circular motions. Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water. Pat dry with a clean, soft towel.

This cleanser is formulated to be highly compatible with a wide range of skincare products:
- Moisturizers: It pairs perfectly with CeraVe moisturizers, such as the CeraVe Moisturizing Lotion or Cream, to lock in hydration.
- Serums: Can be used before applying various serums, including vitamin C, hyaluronic acid, or niacinamide serums, as it prepares the skin without leaving residue.
- Treatments: Its gentle nature makes it suitable for use alongside stronger active treatments (e.g., retinoids, AHAs/BHAs), helping to prevent over-drying or irritation.
