Nice cleanser

This is my daily cleanser, it’s been working pretty well with my dryness but it’s not great. It doesn’t lather well and it has an odd smell. But i can definitely feel it hydrating my face. You need a pretty large amount of product each time you use it.

Gentle Cleanser

I used to use this, but now switched to S.A. Cereve since I’m postpartum with a ton of acne but this works really well to get your makeup off while still being soft and moisturized feeling. This does not make you feel dry at all which I appreciate but still gets the foundation and dirt off. Very mild scent and no irritation

Great facial cleanser 🧼

This is one of my favorite cleansers. At fist I didn’t though that this was going to do anything because the cream formula was new to me. But it impressed me, my face was very hydrated and clean, No oil and with only a little bit I was able to cleanse my face.

Cerave Hydrating cream to foam cleanser

I must have given quite a few reviews on it as well as post a video. It’s so easy to just cream it on. Wet your face to foam and continue the lather until you feel it really clean and then rinse off. Stops breakouts, doesn’t irritate the sling with daily use not leave a residue and that’s why it’s a keeper.

A gentle, hydrating cleanser that cleans effective

I’ve been using the CeraVe Hydrating Cream-to-Foam Cleanser and I really like how gentle yet effective it is. The cream texture turns into a light foam that cleanses well without leaving my skin dry or tight. It removes makeup and daily impurities while keeping my skin feeling hydrated and comfortable. I also appreciate that it doesn’t leave any residue and works well for my combination, sensitive skin.

Formula change? Less foaming

Not sure if they changed the formula but the last 2 I’ve bought hardly foam up. It’s rare that it will and I’ve tried using less water, more water, no water, less cleanser, and more cleanser. It seems to be random when the product wants to foam up like it used to. I’ve been using this product for a while but I might have to switch if another bottle doesn’t consistently foam up.

Must have for sensitive skin.- Soft gentle cleanse

This cleanser is effective but gentle for sensitive skin. Many cleansers require a lot of product to remove waterproof makeup. This cleanser removes it easily and leaves my skin feeling clean and hydrated.
