CeraVe Hydrating Facial Cleanser for Normal-to-Dry Skin, 16 oz — Hyaluronic Acid & Ceramides

CeraVe Hydrating Facial Cleanser is a gentle, non-foaming face wash that cleanses while replenishing moisture with ceramides, hyaluronic acid and glycerin.

This dermatologist-developed lotion-like cleanser is formulated for normal to dry and sensitive skin types. It removes dirt, makeup and excess oil without stripping away natural lipids, and its patented MVE delivery system helps provide sustained hydration. Fragrance-free and accepted by the National Eczema Association, the formula focuses on supporting the skin barrier rather than producing a rich lather.

How does this cleanser hydrate without leaving a greasy residue?

The formula combines humectants and barrier lipids to draw in and lock moisture at the skin surface while maintaining a lightweight finish. MVE technology slowly releases moisturizing ingredients for extended hydration instead of a single short burst.

• Contains hyaluronic acid to attract and hold water at the skin’s surface.
• Ceramides 1, 3 and 6-II replenish key lipids in the skin barrier.
• Glycerin provides immediate skin-softening without heaviness.
• Non-greasy, lotion-like texture rinses clean but leaves skin comfortable.

Will this cleanser irritate sensitive or eczema-prone skin?

The product is fragrance-free, non-comedogenic and formulated to be gentle on compromised skin. It has been accepted by the National Eczema Association, indicating suitability for many people with sensitive or eczema-prone skin when used as part of a gentle routine.

• No added fragrances to reduce irritation risk.
• Accepted by the National Eczema Association for gentle cleansing needs.
• Developed with dermatologists to prioritize barrier support over stripping.
• Can be used on face, body or hands when skin needs mild cleansing.

How should I use CeraVe Hydrating Facial Cleanser in my daily routine?

Use morning and night as a primary cleanser for normal to dry skin, or as a gentle second cleanse if you wear heavy makeup. Apply to damp skin, massage gently, then rinse; follow with a moisturizer to lock in the hydration provided by the cleanser.

• Apply to damp skin and massage for 30–60 seconds.
• Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water and pat skin dry.
• Follow with a ceramide-containing moisturizer to reinforce barrier repair.
• Works well as a body or hand wash when extra gentleness is needed.

What key ingredients make this cleanser effective?

Three essential ceramides help restore lipid balance, while hyaluronic acid and glycerin attract and hold moisture. The MVE delivery system ensures those moisturizing agents are released over time for ongoing hydration throughout the day.

• Ceramides 1, 3 and 6-II for barrier restoration and maintenance.
• Hyaluronic acid to improve moisture retention at the skin surface.
• Glycerin for immediate hydration and skin-softening effects.
• MVE technology for controlled, extended release of moisturizers.

Who is this for: CeraVe Hydrating Facial Cleanser is designed for people with normal to dry skin who want a gentle, non-foaming cleanser that supports the skin barrier. It's especially useful for those with sensitive or eczema-prone skin seeking fragrance-free formulas, anyone looking to avoid over-drying surfactants, and users who prefer a multi-use product that can also cleanse hands or body while preserving moisture.
