Rescue cream for hands and feet. Absolutely amazing!
This cream is pretty good, but it makes my skin burn afterwards.
I personally do not like the scent of this product. In my opinion, the cream is too heavy for the face. When applied to the body, it removes red spots, but the effect is only temporary as they become red again the next day.
This cream is wonderful, I really liked it. My skin feels so soft after using it.
I am very happy that I tried this product. It does not have an unpleasant smell and is quickly absorbed by the skin. There is no feeling of a film on the skin, and its texture is very smooth. Compared to another brand, it is better! Using it together with CeraVe gel is a fantastic combination for me. Thank you for this development!
The best option for a person with atopic dermatitis!
Good product, economical, pleasant texture, and no fragrances or dyes at all. It moisturizes well and absorbs quickly (the only thing I wouldn't recommend before physical activity because the skin noticeably sweats more). I use it as advised by my doctor for follicular keratosis and for skin prone to psoriasis.
This cream is a real find for me, as I have always suffered from keratosis. It effectively tackles this problem, although it is important to thoroughly exfoliate and buff the skin before applying it. I give it a 5-star rating because nothing else has ever helped me like this cream.
At the moment, I can only give a maximum of two stars to this product. One positive aspect is that it has a thick consistency, but it quickly absorbs when applied. Maybe my expectations for dermatocosmetics are too high, but no cream or lotion should create a feeling of being covered in talcum powder after application. I also doubt that it should clump as if you didn't apply it to clean skin and hadn't showered for a month. I am disappointed as this product does not meet the claimed qualities or pricing policy.
After applying the cream, my face stings a lot.
I bought a sample for my face (normal) and it feels too heavy. The film stays on even on the next day, and I actually prefer a more moisturizing effect.
I use it for my face. This is already my fourth jar, the cream itself is good, the price is pleasant for such a volume, but I suspect that it causes comedones on my oily skin type. (I am prone to comedones, so I cannot be sure that it is specifically this cream that causes them).
I purchased this cream for rough areas of skin on my body, but blessed be the day when I tried to apply it on my face. Here are the details: 25 years old, dry skin, prone to compromised skin barrier for any reason: forgot to drink water, wind blew, didn't sleep well - and that's it, I turn red and burn even from gentle touches. So I am familiar with ceramides for a long time, I have used Biogena, Corsx, Real Barrier, I even tried to grow a colony of beneficial bacteria on my face, but the effects took a long time to appear, it was tedious, and often came with the gift of pimples. But this cream... it's something incredible! Upon first application, it tingled a bit on sensitive areas of the skin, but in the morning, there was no dryness or tightness, the skin felt protected. I have been using it for over a month now - no comedones, no pimples, no redness or flaking. I use it for both day and night skincare. It works wonderfully as a finish to retinol (yes, thanks to this cream, I was able to somewhat restore my skin barrier and use retinol. By the way, the retinol serum from the same brand worked perfectly for the first introduction). The cream also works well with other actives - serums with hyaluronic acid, arbutin, and vitamin C. It also suited my boyfriend and his combination skin, now he applies it himself without any reminders, because the results are noticeable even for him. The only thing is, try applying something under the cream, at least a basic toner. Overall, I highly recommend this product to everyone, definitely get it for autumn and winter. If it doesn't work for your face, it will definitely work for your hands, elbows, knees, and heels. It worked great for my keratosis symptoms on my thighs. In short, it's a universal ointment. And for mega dry skin, it's the best finish to your entire skincare routine. Thank you, CeraVe!
This is not just a cream. It is like a second baby skin. I praise the person who created this elixir.
I cleanse my hands, spray mineral water in two steps, and then apply this cream. The effect is superb, my wrinkles have smoothed out. And washing dishes with gloves is a great tip.
I have been using this product for several months now. First and foremost, it has been great for combating ingrown hair on my legs (exfoliation + this cream) with excellent results. Additionally, I use it on dry areas of my face and body and can overall say that it is versatile. I highly recommend it.
The cream is truly good, especially since it is unfortunately difficult to find a cream with urea. However, personally, I do not like the smell and it leaves a sticky feeling, resulting in a high product consumption.
The application of this product has had a remarkable effect. A dermatologist prescribed it to my son for follicular dermatosis, and the pimples have almost completely disappeared.
The cream is wonderful, I have been using it for the fourth time now. I have dermatitis and this is the only thing that saves my hands all year round. I also use it for dry heels, elbows, and knees.
Oh my goodness. I read the reviews and decided to buy this product because I have hyperkeratosis on my cheeks. I have sensitive dry skin. It was claimed to be suitable for dry and sensitive skin. After the first use, my skin became red, swollen, and painful. It felt like a burn. This has never happened to me before, even though I have used different products. It damaged my skin barrier and caused a burn. Even though my skin is used to acids. It's just horrible. I will use it to moisturize my heels only. It's not suitable for anything else.
The cream doesn't sting, leaves no residue, and moisturizes dry facial skin quite well. It doesn't cause any irritations or redness.
The cream acts more like a balm. It doesn't moisturize the skin but creates a film on the face until the next wash. It caused breakouts!
I have been using this cream for almost a year now. It moisturizes the skin nicely and I really like it. I highly recommend it!
I have been using it for 5 days and I am very satisfied with the result. My skin was very dry on my heels, and there were cracks. Now my skin is softer and the cracks are healing.
I was given this cream as a sample and I really liked it. Now I have ordered it and I am more than satisfied. I have very dry skin on my hands, sometimes it even flakes from water and soap. I apply it 2-3 times a day and now I don't feel any dryness. My skin looks moisturized and consequently younger. THANK YOU CeraVe for such a great product, I really love creams from this brand.
A dermatologist recommended this cream specifically for my face and hands, as I suffer from severe dryness. Honestly, I was shocked because this cream actually stings my face. I'm not allergic and have used both expensive and cheap products from the supermarket in my life, but I've never had this reaction before. Even after washing off the cream, the burning sensation on my skin doesn't go away. Maybe this product is really great in some cases (I read reviews mentioning its effectiveness for hyperkeratosis), but keep in mind that it may not be suitable for dry facial skin.
Specifically, for follicular hyperkeratosis, it helped 100% on the affected areas. I wouldn't risk applying it on the face, but I definitely recommend it to anyone suffering from hyperkeratosis on their feet or other parts of the body.
The cream is good, but I took off a star because of the smell, it's pretty unpleasant to me (the blue cream is better, or rather, it's not even there).
I bought it purely to moisturize my feet, hands, and elbows, and it does a great job with that.
Recently, I decided to take a risk and use it on my face (I've never done that before with body cream, I've always strictly used face creams for my face). I have to say that the cream behaves excellently on my face. I'm actually shocked that many people react saying it burns a lot, but I don't feel any tingling sensation (there's not even a hint of it). I applied it all over my face and in the morning, my skin was great - soft, fresh, and brighter. It didn't clog my pores (I have enlarged pores), so I'm very satisfied.
Let me tell you about my skin so you can understand why it's like this. Over the winter, my skin became very over-hydrated and went from being normal combination to combination leaning towards oily. This is all due to excessive hydration (I used super moisturizing and nourishing serums and creams all winter, along with toners and masks - you get the idea. I was just afraid of dryness and tried to prevent it). Now, my skincare routine doesn't work for me anymore, so out of curiosity, I decided to try this cream. But over the winter, my skin became super dense and now it gets oily faster (I use acids for peeling once a week and a glow toner 4-5 times a week).
If anyone knows what should be done to reduce oiliness, please write. Because this cream helps, my skin is less oily than usual in the morning, but I still need some lighter serum and cream for the day. I've tried all the face creams from this brand (they all feel oily to me, including the night one, the SPF one, and the blue one. I don't want to use the milk one on my face, I also use it on my body because it moisturizes so well, so I don't think it's suitable for my face). So, if you're an expert on this brand, please don't suggest your creams.
The product is great, but it lacks options for oily skin. Will there be something moisturizing with a light texture in the brand's lineup? Maybe with SPF?
I purchased this product based on a dermatologist's recommendation. My skin looks significantly better: it has become softer, irritation and excessive dryness have disappeared. The only downside is that the cream is quite thick, so there is a slight stickiness on the skin for a while. However, this is more of a habit and sensation issue.
I received a sample of this cream as a gift and decided to give it a try. Unfortunately, it caused a burning sensation on my face, so I had to wash it off. Even after rinsing it off with a cleanser, my face still feels irritated.
I ordered this product for my skin with follicular keratosis. Overall, it effectively reduces dryness and keeps the skin moisturized throughout the day, not just immediately after application. However, it does not completely eliminate all manifestations of keratosis, particularly uneven skin texture and red patches. Although, when compared to mass-market creams, this one is definitely more effective.
This product absorbs well into the skin of the hands and body and effectively helps with winter peeling and dryness. I am very satisfied with both the result and the ingredients, and the fact that such a good cream is available at this price! Thank you, manufacturer. I have not tried and do not intend to use it on my face because I do not use body creams on my face. I always buy a specialized cream for my face.
This product effectively moisturizes the body, although I do not apply it on my face. After using this cream, my heels feel incredibly soft and smooth.
I received a sample of this product and it's definitely not suitable for the face. It actually irritated my skin just like others mentioned. However, it works wonders for the hands, truly softening and moisturizing them. I will definitely purchase the full-size version, as it will be perfect for my dry hands during the winter!
The cream caused irritation and prolonged redness, similar to a burn. My face felt like it was stinging and tingling, as if I had applied salt to an open wound, even though my face wasn't irritated before. I've never experienced this with any other cream. The description stated that it is suitable for sensitive skin. However, the cream contains alcohols and acids, and not just one. I am disappointed with the Cerave brand.
I received a tester when I ordered a facial wash and moisturizing cream. According to the description, it was perfect for my skin, but after application, redness appeared and it started to burn very strongly! The burning sensation did not go away immediately after washing, but persisted until I applied soothing products. I do not recommend it.
Great for the body. I wouldn't risk using it on my face, though. It's too thick. Maybe just for spot treatment on dry patches. I have dry, flaky skin on my body, so I apply it to wet skin after showering. I also apply it to my hands right after washing them while the skin is still damp. It helps.
Pleasant cream! Odorless. Absorbs quickly into the skin on the body. It leaves the skin nicely moisturized and soft. As for the face, personally, I had to adapt. I apply it on my cheeks, chin, and neck. The T-zone is normal but prone to oiliness if not properly cared for. This cream proved to be too heavy for it, it seems that it doesn't absorb well on the forehead and nose, so I use something lighter for oily skin. It doesn't do much for follicular keratosis, or rather, it works very slowly, but there is still a result. In any case, something else needs to be added for exfoliation (enzymes, acids). The large volume is also pleasing. If used solely for the face, it will last for a very long time!
This cream is excellent, it moisturizes wonderfully and even reduced some of my patchy skin, but the scent is a bit strange.)
This cream did not work for me. After applying it, redness appeared and my facial skin felt terribly burning. I washed my face, but the redness did not disappear immediately.
The cream moisturizes well and leaves the skin feeling soft and pleasant to touch. The only downside is that it leaves a sticky residue and has an unpleasant smell. If it weren't for these issues, I would use it more often.
I bought this product at a discounted price because the box was slightly damaged, but I will leave my review here since people read reviews under the main product. The consistency of the cream is unusual for me. It is thick and dense, but not greasy, and it even mattifies the skin after application. Over time, the skin does not shine. Because of this, the cream is not easily spread, but you just have to make an effort not to apply too much. I apply it to my face with patting motions. It moisturizes wonderfully and for a long time. The acids in the cream are active. I am used to them, but I can't use them every evening as they irritate my skin. Once, I had the sense to wipe my skin with an acid toner before applying this cream. There were no red spots... My skin is combination, 40 years old, and my pores tend to clog easily. But not in this case. I recommend the cream, but you need to understand the peculiarities of the product.
This is a really cool product!
"It effectively moisturizes and nourishes the skin, but the sensation is not very pleasant when, for example, the feet touch or when anything comes into contact with the area where the cream is applied. It is only for this reason that I am not particularly inclined to reach for it."
Be cautious. It provokes rashes. And no, it's not the effect of acid exacerbation after use. I use them all year round without breaks. Including salicylic acid as well. But this product caused an allergic rash in both me and my daughter.
I apply it on WET skin to ensure easier distribution. It moisturizes well, unlike other creams that don't suit me. I want to apply it again and again. This is my second time buying it. Previously, I purchased a larger jar, but this time it wasn't available, which is a shame. Thank you for the fast delivery.
The cream leaves a sticky film on the skin and stings for the first few minutes. It's better not to use it on the face, especially during the summer. I use it on my feet at night, and it works wonders! It smooths rough skin on the heels and heals cracks. I highly recommend it as a foot cream.
I was recommended this cream by a dermatologist for treating follicular keratosis. The cream is very thick, making it difficult to apply. After application, it remains sticky for about an hour before absorbing properly. However, when in contact with water, it forms a film that is hard to wash off. I have been using it for about two weeks. There is a minor moisturizing effect, but I have achieved the same result with other mass-market products. There have been no changes with the keratosis, and I am still waiting for a miracle. Perhaps, it requires more time for the effect to show.
Good day! Thank you for the quick and excellent service. The product is of high quality. My son bought the cream for himself, previously he had a cream from the "Golistar" brand. Of course, it may not be appropriate to compare them, but Cerave cosmetics are more medicinal, therefore they have no strong scent and have a dense texture that nourishes the skin nicely. I highly recommend it to anyone who has any skin problems. My son is satisfied and I believe he will buy it again.
I received a sample for testing, and initially, I liked the cream. It moisturized well, but later I experienced dryness and my skin lacked moisture. I have dry skin, and it didn't work for me.
I am very satisfied with the received sample of the cream. The cream is thick and without any unnecessary scent. After applying it, my dry skin became soft and smooth, without any flakiness or irritation.
The cream is good, but it has a very thick consistency.
I bought it at the pharmacy because the cream from Sisters Aroma didn't help me. In such a situation, working as a volunteer really dried out my hands. I used Sisters for a week with zero results. But this one, in just two days, worked some wonders.
I received samples of the cream for testing purposes. In late autumn and winter, my facial skin becomes dry and constantly flakes. My night cream is nourishing, but it was not fully addressing this issue. CeraVe cream showed results in just a few days. The flaking and dryness disappeared. I would like to add that the cream does not have a strong scent, has a thick texture, and is quite economical to use.
I received this cream for testing. Another wonderful universal product from CeraVe. I use the cream for my lips, as they suffer greatly from temperature changes. The product heals wounds wonderfully, eliminates discomfort and pain. The cream is also great for hands as it quickly and effectively helps skin regeneration. It is odorless, with a thick and dense texture that instantly absorbs into the skin, leaving no greasy feeling at all. In winter, for traveling or hiking, this cream is perfect in my opinion. I highly recommend it.
I received a sample cream from the company and was pleasantly impressed. The moisturizing effect is wonderful, and it keeps my skin protected and hydrated throughout the day. The texture is pleasant, and the scent is not overpowering. Despite having a strong reaction to most creams, such as experiencing redness, this cream did not cause any redness.
I received a sample of this product, and it's amazing! My skin looks great after using it.
I received a sample of the cream for testing. In my opinion, it's a real find for the body! It has a dense texture and a pleasant aroma. It moisturizes the skin nicely and doesn't cause any irritation.
This is a great cream, and the best part is that it is versatile - it can be used on both the face and body. It moisturizes very well. After trying it out, I ended up buying the entire series.
The leather is velvety and it gently exfoliated the dry patches. I am satisfied with its quality, absence of any odor, and its thick yet non-greasy texture.
