Frequently Asked Questions
-
What is CeraVe Moisturising Lotion and what does it do?
CeraVe Moisturising Lotion is a lightweight, oil-free moisturiser designed for daily use on the face and body. Formulated with three essential ceramides and hyaluronic acid, it works to hydrate the skin while helping to strengthen and maintain the skin's protective moisture barrier. Its MVE (MultiVesicular Emulsion) Delivery Technology continuously releases moisturising ingredients into the skin, providing up to 48 hours of hydration in a formula that absorbs quickly without feeling heavy or greasy. -
Who should use CeraVe Moisturising Lotion?
CeraVe Moisturising Lotion is suited to dry to very dry skin types and can be used on both the face and body. Its lightweight, non-comedogenic formula makes it suitable for everyday use across all seasons, including warmer months when heavier creams may feel too rich. It is hypoallergenic and free from ingredients that commonly trigger skin reactions, making it a well-tolerated option for sensitive skin. The formula is also non-greasy, so it is comfortable to wear under clothing or sunscreen during the day. -
What are the main ingredients in CeraVe Moisturising Lotion?
CeraVe Moisturising Lotion contains three essential ceramides (ceramide NP, ceramide AP, and ceramide EOP), which are naturally occurring lipids that make up a significant part of the skin's protective barrier. It also contains hyaluronic acid, a humectant that attracts and holds moisture in the skin. The formula features MVE Delivery Technology, which ensures that these moisturising ingredients are released gradually over time for long-lasting hydration. It is fragrance-free, paraben-free, and non-comedogenic. -
Can I use CeraVe Moisturising Lotion on my face and body?
Yes. CeraVe Moisturising Lotion is formulated for use on both the face and body, making it a versatile everyday moisturiser. Its lightweight consistency means it works well as a facial moisturiser for those who find richer creams too heavy, while also providing effective hydration to dry areas of the body such as arms, legs, and hands. For face use, apply it as the final step in your skincare routine before sunscreen or makeup in the morning, and as the last step in your evening routine. -
What is the difference between CeraVe Moisturising Lotion and CeraVe Moisturising Cream?
The main difference is texture and richness. CeraVe Moisturising Lotion has a lighter, more fluid consistency that absorbs quickly — making it ideal for those who prefer a less heavy feel, particularly in warmer weather or for use on the body. CeraVe Moisturising Cream has a richer, denser texture that contains petrolatum, an occlusive ingredient that creates a physical seal on the skin to lock in moisture more intensively. This makes the cream particularly well suited to very dry or eczema-prone skin. Both products contain three essential ceramides, hyaluronic acid, and MVE Delivery Technology. -
Is CeraVe Moisturising Lotion suitable for oily or acne-prone skin?
CeraVe Moisturising Lotion is oil-free and non-comedogenic, meaning it is formulated not to clog pores or contribute to breakouts. These properties make it a reasonable choice for those with combination to oily skin who still need hydration. However, it is primarily designed for dry to very dry skin, so those with oily or acne-prone skin may prefer a lighter formulation specifically designed for their skin type. If you are managing active breakouts, speak with a dermatologist about the best moisturiser for your routine. -
How often should I apply CeraVe Moisturising Lotion?
CeraVe Moisturising Lotion can be applied as often as your skin needs it. For most people, applying it once or twice daily — in the morning and evening — is sufficient to maintain hydrated, comfortable skin. For very dry skin or body areas prone to dryness, applying immediately after bathing while the skin is still slightly damp can help to lock in moisture more effectively. Its lightweight formula and non-greasy finish make it suitable for daily use throughout the year. -
How do I use CeraVe Moisturising Lotion in my skincare routine?
Apply CeraVe Moisturising Lotion to clean skin after cleansing and any serums or targeted treatments. As a face moisturiser, use it as the final step in your skincare routine before applying sunscreen in the morning or as the last step in your evening routine. For body use, apply liberally to the skin immediately after showering or bathing to help seal in moisture while the skin is still warm and slightly damp. The lotion absorbs quickly, so it can be followed by sunscreen or clothing without the need to wait for it to fully dry down. -
Does CeraVe Moisturising Lotion contain fragrance or parabens?
No. CeraVe Moisturising Lotion is fragrance-free and paraben-free. It is also hypoallergenic and non-comedogenic, and has been developed with dermatologists. This makes it a well-tolerated option for those with sensitive skin, reactive skin, or those who prefer to avoid common irritants in their skincare products. The formula is designed to support the skin barrier rather than disrupt it, which is why it avoids ingredients that commonly cause sensitivity or allergic reactions.
