CeraVe Moisturising Cream for Dry to Very Dry Skin
Rich moisture and barrier support for dry to very dry skin.
Quick verdict
CeraVe Moisturising Cream is a fragrance-free cream for dry to very dry skin. It combines glycerin and hyaluronic acid with ceramides, cholesterol and phytosphingosine, making it a practical option when a lighter lotion does not provide enough richness.
Why it made the cut
The formula brings together humectants and barrier lipids in a richer cream base. It also contains petrolatum and dimethicone, which contribute to its protective feel.
This is the Moisturising Cream, suitable for face and body, rather than CeraVe PM Facial Lotion. It can fill the richer moisturiser step in a straightforward routine without adding a separate treatment serum.
