CeraVe Moisturising Lotion - Moisturizing

Yes, CeraVe Moisturizing Lotion is non-comedogenic (won't clog pores) and fragrance-free, making it perfectly suitable for use on both the face and body, even for sensitive facial skin.

While primarily designed for normal to very dry skin, its non-comedogenic and relatively lightweight formula means it can be used by individuals with oily skin who still require hydration. However, those with very oily skin might prefer a gel-based moisturizer.

You can apply CeraVe Moisturizing Lotion liberally as often as needed throughout the day, particularly after showering, bathing, or washing your hands, to maintain optimal skin hydration and comfort.

Ceramides are essential lipids (fats) that naturally occur in the skin and are a vital component of the skin's protective barrier. They play a crucial role in preventing moisture loss and shielding the skin from environmental irritants. Replenishing ceramides helps restore a healthy and functional skin barrier.

No, CeraVe Moisturizing Lotion does not contain SPF. For adequate sun protection, it is recommended to apply a separate broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or higher as the final step in your morning skincare routine.

CeraVe products are generally formulated to be gentle and are suitable for most skin types, including children's. However, for infants or very young children, it is always advisable to consult with a pediatrician before introducing new skincare products.

CeraVe Moisturizing Lotion has a lightweight, non-greasy formula that is designed to absorb quickly into the skin without leaving a sticky or heavy residue, provided a reasonable amount is applied.

Ensure your skin is clean before application. Try using a smaller amount and gently massage it in until fully absorbed. For some individuals, a lighter application may be preferred if the skin is only mildly dry.

Increase the frequency of application, especially after washing or exposure to dry environments. For particularly dry or stubborn patches, consider layering with a thicker emollient or consult a dermatologist for specialized advice.

First, confirm the pump nozzle is twisted counter-clockwise to the 'open' position. If it's a new bottle, you may need to 'prime' the pump by pressing it down several times until the product begins to flow. If the bottle is near empty, you might need to remove the pump and use a clean spatula to access the remaining lotion.

Although rare due to its gentle, dermatologist-developed formula, if irritation occurs, discontinue use immediately. If you have extremely sensitive skin or known allergies, perform a patch test on a small, inconspicuous area of skin before full application.
