How to choose a CeraVe product?
The right CeraVe product depends on whether you need a moisturizing cream for dry skin, gentle cleansing, a foaming cleanser for oilier skin or care for rough and uneven skin.

CeraVe for cleansing the skin
Foaming cleanser is usually chosen for normal to oily skin, while hydrating cleanser is more suitable for normal to dry skin. Both products are intended for daily routines and support of the natural skin barrier.
CeraVe for hydration and barrier support
Moisturizing creams and lotions are intended for skin that lacks moisture, while the SA Smoothing line is suitable for rough, thickened or uneven skin. Regular use helps the skin feel softer, more comfortable and better hydrated.
Pharmacist’s advice
For dry and sensitive skin, choose gentle cleansers and moisturizing care that does not aggressively strip the skin. Products with salicylic acid should be introduced gradually, especially if the skin is sensitive. If intense stinging, redness, itching, cracked skin, worsening eczema or persistent changes occur, consult a doctor or pharmacist.
