## Description

From the manufacturer CeraVe Treatments Hydrating Cleanser Hydrating Foaming Oil Cream-to-Foam Cleanser SA Smoothing Cleanser Foaming Cleanser Complete your routine

Review: Been using this for 5+ years and still repurchasing - I’ve been using the CeraVe Hydrating Cleanser for normal to dry skin for well over five years now, and honestly it’s one of those products I just keep coming back to. I use it every single time I shower, and it’s never let me down. My skin is on the drier side, but I also deal with sebaceous filaments, especially around the nose and inner cheeks, and this cleanser works really well for that without being harsh. What I like is that it has enough slip that you can actually massage your skin properly. I find that if I take a bit of time and gently massage, I can literally feel the sebaceous filaments loosen and come out, without irritating my skin or making it red afterwards. It doesn’t foam, it doesn’t feel aggressive, and it never gives me that tight, stripped feeling that a lot of cleansers do. After rinsing, my skin just feels soft and hydrated, not squeaky clean in a bad way. It feels calm, comfortable, and like my skin barrier hasn’t been messed with. I’ve used this through different seasons, different routines, and even when my skin has been more sensitive, and it’s always been reliable. If you have normal to dry skin and want a cleanser you can use daily without worrying about overdoing it, this is genuinely a solid choice. It’s simple, it works, and for me it’s been a very long-term, trustworthy skincare staple.
Review: The Ultimate Gentle Cleanse: Hydrating, Non-Stripping, and Essential! - Why This Cleanser is a Holy Grail: After struggling with cleansers that left my skin feeling tight, dry, and irritated, I switched to the CeraVe Hydrating Cleanser on the recommendation of a dermatologist. It has fundamentally changed my skin health by proving that a cleanser can thoroughly clean without stripping the skin barrier. The Game-Changing Benefits (The Pros): Non-Foaming, Non-Stripping: This is the key. Its lotion-like, non-foaming texture cleanses effectively to remove dirt and grime but does not produce that squeaky-clean feeling that signals a damaged barrier. My skin always feels soft, calm, and balanced after use. Essential Barrier Repair (3 Ceramides): Like all CeraVe products, it contains the three essential Ceramides, which help restore and maintain the skin's protective barrier while you wash. This is crucial for reducing sensitivity and redness over time. Hyaluronic Acid for Moisture: The inclusion of Hyaluronic Acid ensures that the cleansing process also delivers a boost of hydration, leaving the skin plump and comfortable, not dry or tight. Perfect for Sensitive Skin: It is fragrance-free, non-comedogenic, and accepted by the National Eczema Association, making it safe and reliable for even the most sensitive, eczema-prone, or reactive skin types. Excellent Value: The large pump bottle provides a generous amount of high-quality product at a very reasonable price point, making it highly economical for daily, long-term use. Tips for Best Use: Apply a generous amount to damp skin and massage gently for a full minute before rinsing. It's gentle enough to be used both morning and night. Final Verdict: The CeraVe Hydrating Cleanser is the perfect starting point for any successful skincare routine, especially if you have normal to dry or sensitive skin. It sets the standard for gentle, effective cleansing while actively supporting skin health. A total winner and a mandatory 5-star product.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Gives a gentle glow
*by C***N on 19 January 2026*

This cleanser gives my skin a nice glow and hasn’t irritated it at all, which is important as my skin is very sensitive. I’ve been using it regularly and found it gentle and comfortable to use. That said, I don’t think it has helped clear my pores as much as I expected for the price. The lather is good and it spreads easily, and I like that it’s fragrance-free, which makes it suitable for sensitive or hypoallergenic skincare routines. Overall, the quality is good if you’re looking for a basic, gentle cleanser that leaves your skin feeling clean and gives a healthy glow, but it may not be strong enough if deep pore cleansing is your main goal.
