Frequently Asked Questions
-
What does CeraVe Reparative Hand Cream do?
CeraVe Reparative Hand Cream is a deeply moisturising hand cream designed to alleviate dryness and repair rough, dry hands. Formulated with three essential ceramides, hyaluronic acid, glycerin, and the skin protectant dimethicone, it works to hydrate the skin, lock in moisture, and help strengthen the protective skin barrier. MVE (MultiVesicular Emulsion) Delivery Technology provides a slow, continuous release of moisturising ingredients, delivering up to 24 hours of hydration. Despite its intensive moisturising action, the formula is water-resistant, fast-absorbing, and non-greasy, making it suitable for use at any time of day. -
Who should use CeraVe Reparative Hand Cream?
CeraVe Reparative Hand Cream is specifically formulated for extremely dry, rough hands and is suitable for all adults and children who experience dryness, roughness, or skin discomfort on their hands. Its non-irritating, fragrance-free formula makes it suitable for sensitive skin, and it is also appropriate for skin prone to mild eczema. CeraVe Reparative Hand Cream is approved by the Eczema Association of Australasia Inc (EAA), and is developed with dermatologists, making it a well-tested choice for those who need a gentle yet effective hand moisturiser. It can be used frequently throughout the day — including after handwashing — without leaving a greasy residue. -
What are the key ingredients in CeraVe Reparative Hand Cream?
The formula is built around three essential ceramides (ceramide NP, ceramide AP, and ceramide EOP), which help restore and maintain the skin's protective moisture barrier — particularly important for hands, which are exposed to frequent washing and environmental irritants. Hyaluronic acid (as sodium hyaluronate) helps attract and retain moisture in the skin, while glycerin provides immediate hydration. Dimethicone acts as an occlusive skin protectant, helping to seal moisture in and form a protective layer on the skin's surface. Petrolatum is also included to further support moisture retention. The formula is fragrance-free and paraben-free. -
How often should I apply CeraVe Reparative Hand Cream?
CeraVe Reparative Hand Cream can be applied as often as needed throughout the day. For very dry or rough hands, applying it after every handwash is an effective way to counteract moisture loss caused by soap and water. Applying it before bed and leaving it on overnight can also be beneficial for deeply dry or cracked skin, as the hands have time to absorb the cream without being washed off. Its non-greasy, fast-absorbing formula means it is comfortable to apply before everyday activities without leaving hands feeling sticky or slippery. -
Is CeraVe Reparative Hand Cream safe to use on children?
Yes. CeraVe Reparative Hand Cream is gentle enough to be used by both adults and children. Its fragrance-free, non-irritating formula has been developed with dermatologists and is approved by the Eczema Association of Australasia Inc (EAA), reflecting its suitability for sensitive and eczema-prone skin. If your child has a diagnosed skin condition or is experiencing severe dryness or a rash, it is always advisable to consult a paediatrician or dermatologist before introducing new skincare products. -
Is CeraVe Reparative Hand Cream good for eczema-prone skin?
Yes. CeraVe Reparative Hand Cream carries the Eczema Association of Australasia Inc (EAA) stamp of approval, which identifies products considered suitable for eczema-prone skin. Its formula is free from fragrance — a common trigger for eczema flares — and includes three essential ceramides, beneficial for eczema, which help to replenish the skin's naturally occurring lipids that are often depleted in eczema-prone skin. While it is not a treatment for eczema, it can help to support the skin barrier, reduce moisture loss, and alleviate the discomfort of dry, irritated hands. For moderate to severe eczema, always consult a dermatologist for appropriate treatment guidance. -
What is the difference between CeraVe Reparative Hand Cream and CeraVe Moisturising Cream?
Both products are designed for dry skin and share core ingredients including three essential ceramides, hyaluronic acid, and dimethicone, but they serve different purposes. CeraVe Reparative Hand Cream is specifically formulated for the hands, with an emphasis on protecting skin that is frequently exposed to water, soap, and environmental irritants. It includes dimethicone as an active skin protectant, which creates a physical barrier on the skin's surface. CeraVe Moisturising Cream is a general-purpose face and body moisturiser suitable for all skin types, formulated with a richer texture ideal for dry and very dry skin across the face and body. For hand-specific dryness and protection, the Reparative Hand Cream is the more targeted choice. -
Can CeraVe Reparative Hand Cream be used on other parts of the body?
While CeraVe Reparative Hand Cream is specifically formulated and tested for use on the hands, its ingredients are also well suited to other dry areas of the body such as elbows, knees, and feet. Its ceramide-rich formula and skin protectant properties can provide effective relief for rough or dry patches on other body areas. For broader full-body moisturising, CeraVe Moisturising Cream or CeraVe Moisturising Lotion may be more practical options, as they are available in larger sizes designed for wider application.
