"CeraVe began as part of a pharmaceutical company that focused on dermatology. Since our debut, the brand has continued to stick to a formula-first philosophy—prioritizing a valuable product at an affordable price over costly, luxury packaging," explains Allison. Each product is carefully formulated with a base of three essential ceramides—along with patented MVE technology—to ensure the skin's barrier is rehabilitated from any and all damage it has endured, which is why it's become a favorite of many.

Moisturizing Cream

CeraVe's Moisturizing Cream was one of the brand's first products—and it remains a cult-favorite today. "I like this moisturizing cream because it helps restore the skin barrier," says Jeannette Graf, MD. She further explains that when the skin barrier gets compromised, it becomes vulnerable to environmental stressors and can't function at its highest capability. "This moisturizer helps penetrate the skin, hydrating it at a cellular level to protect from drying skin, cracks, itchiness, etc."

"The rich, non-greasy fragrance-free formula is packed with ceramides and hyaluronic acid to help seal moisture in and keep irritants," says Allison. "It features patented MVE Delivery Technology to release a steady stream of moisturizing ingredients throughout the day and night."
