Expert opinion

I have tried many products to help keep my skin hydrated and moisturized, but none have been as effective as CeraVe Moisturizing Cream with Salicylic Acid. This cream is specifically designed to exfoliate and moisturize dry, scaly, or rough and bumpy skin on legs and upper arms. The rich, velvety texture of the product absorbs quickly without leaving behind a greasy feeling.

The active ingredients in this product are Hyaluronic acid, Salicylic acid, Aqua/Water/Eau, Glycerin, Paraffinum Liquidum/Mineral Oil/Huile Minerale, Glyceryl Stearate, Cetearyl Alcohol, Triethanolamine, Niacinamide, Cetyl Alcohol, Ammonium Lactate,, Behentrimonium Methosulfate, Peg 100 Stearate, Zea Mays Oil/Corn Oil, Ceramide Np, Ceramide Ap, Ceramide Eop , Carbomer , Dimethicone , Methylparaben , Sodium Lauroyl Lactylate , Cholecalciferol , Cholesterol , Phenoxyethanol , Disodium EDTA , Tocopherol , Propylparaben , Hydrolyzed Hyaluronic Acid , Phytosphingosine and Xanthan Gum. These ingredients work together to exfoliate the skin while retaining its natural moisture levels. The product is hypoallergenic and fragrance free which makes it ideal for people with sensitive skin. It is also non comedogenic so it wont clog pores or cause breakouts.

The product works to gently exfoliate the skin while providing long lasting hydration and nourishment. The combination of salicylic acid and lactic acid helps to remove dead skin cells while hyaluronic acid helps to retain moisture levels in the skin. Niacinamide helps to calm the skin while ceramides help to restore and maintain the natural barrier of the skin.

In addition to its hydrating properties, this cream is also suitable for body use and can be paired with CeraVe Salicylic Acid Body Wash for Rough and Bumpy Skin for a complete cleansing experience. The product is dermatologist recommended and gentle on sensitive skin making it perfect for those with dry or rough patches that need extra care.

Overall I am extremely impressed with CeraVe Moisturizing Cream with Salicylic Acid. It has been an absolute lifesaver for my dry winter skin and has helped me keep it feeling soft and smooth all year round! Its an excellent choice if youre looking for a product that will exfoliate your skin while providing long lasting hydration without any irritation or greasiness! Highly recommended!
