What reviewers say

Distilled from the video reviewers — the score, what they praise, where they push back.?

Moisturizing Cream
across 4 reviews
4.0/5
divided
Reviewers praise
  • Three ceramides (NP, AP, EOP) directly replenish the skin's natural lipid barrier, reducing water loss and dryness
  • Hyaluronic acid draws moisture to the skin surface and helps retain it throughout the day
  • Fragrance-free and low-allergen formula makes it broadly tolerable for sensitive and eczema-prone skin
Reviewers push back
  • Tub packaging requires scooping, which is less hygienic and less convenient than a pump dispenser
  • Too rich for oily skin types, particularly on the face, where it can feel heavy
  • Some users report breakouts, a risk linked partly to silicone (dimethicone) buildup if cleansing is insufficient
Reviewers broadly agree the CeraVe Moisturizing Cream is a dermatologist-trusted, barrier-focused cream that works well for dry and eczema-prone skin, though it is too rich for oily or acne-prone skin types.
— best for: People with dry, very dry, or eczema-prone skin who need a straightforward, fragrance-free cream to repair and maintain their skin barrier.

Disclosure: I purchased this product with my own money. These are my honest opinions. I’ve used Cerave Moisturizing Cream for years! It’s my holy grail because it’s truly allowed my skin to tolerate regular use of a retinoid. It’s oil-free, non-comedogenic, and fragrance-free, all 3 of which are imperative to me for anything I apply on or around my facial area. I use it as the final step of my rou Kat V · influenster.com

This stuff I buy in bulk on sale. It has really helped my rosacea and anywhere that I get irritated skin. It is like magic, and I put a layer of it on top of my whole nighttime routine most nights. I think it really quiets redness and provides a nutritive feeling to my skin. People with very dry skin will need it to go over something moisturizing as it is not in itself a deep moisturizer.
