CeraVe Hypoallergenic Foaming Facial Gel Cleanser with Ceramides & Hyaluronic Acid for Normal to Oily Skin, 236ml

This is CeraVe's original foaming cleanser for normal to oily skin, in the 236ml size. It is the product that established the range and the one most often recommended as a starting point: a straightforward gel that foams, removes oil and makeup, and leaves the skin clean without the tight, stripped feeling that comes with most foaming washes.

The 236ml is the smaller of the two bottle sizes, useful if you are trying it for the first time or want one for travel.

Specs

• Form: Foaming gel cleanser
• Volume: 236ml
• Key ingredients: Three essential ceramides, hyaluronic acid, niacinamide
• Skin type: Normal to oily
• Fragrance-free, non-comedogenic, hypoallergenic
• Brand: CeraVe

Benefits

• Ceramides are the lipids the skin barrier is built from, added here to the step that usually depletes them
• That squeaky, tight feeling after washing is not a sign of clean skin. It means the barrier has been stripped
• Fragrance-free and non-comedogenic, so it suits oily skin that is also reactive
• The 236ml bottle is the sensible first purchase before committing to the larger size
• If your skin is dry rather than oily, the non-foaming Hydrating Cleanser in the same range is the better fit

How to Use

• Wet the face with lukewarm water
• Massage a small amount over the face in circular motions
• Rinse thoroughly and pat dry
• Use morning and evening
• Follow with a moisturiser. Oily skin still needs one
• Avoid the eye area and rinse with water if it gets in the eyes
