  • What's the best CeraVe face cleanser for makeup removal?

    CeraVe's makeup-removing cleansers offer a gentle yet effective way to break down and remove all traces of makeup-which can clog your pores and potentially lead to blemish-prone skin breakouts. We recommend exploring our range of options to see which makeup remover formula works best for your preferences and needs. CeraVe Hydrating Cream-To-Foam Cleanser is an excellent option for removing makeup. This unique formula offers the best of both worlds: a cream cleanser that hydrates and a foaming formula that provides a refreshing skin feel.
  • What does a facial cleanser do?

    Facial cleansers wash away dirt, excess oil, dead skin cells, and other impurities from your skin's surface. Without an effective cleansing routine, these impurities can build up on your skin and clog your pores, potentially leading to skin concerns like visible pores, rough texture, blackheads, and other types of acne breakouts. Face cleansers are usually the first step in a basic skincare routine. They allow you to start your routine with a blank canvas and set the stage for the rest of the products to follow. CeraVe's facial cleansers are available in a variety of different textures, including foams, gels, creams, and no-rinse formulas (like micellar water).
  • What's the difference between a face wash and a facial cleanser?

    Facial cleansers and face washes both serve the same primary purpose: They help remove dirt, excess oil, and other impurities from your skin's surface. Although these two terms are often used interchangeably, there is a subtle difference between them. The term "facial cleanser" is usually used more broadly to describe all products that fall under the facial cleansing umbrella-including face washes. So, technically speaking, all face washes are facial cleansers but not all facial cleansers are face washes. Products that are labeled "face wash" typically feature water-based, foaming formulas (like foaming gel cleansers) that produce a lather when applied. These cleansers are often designed to give your skin a refreshed, deep clean feel, which is why they're often preferred by those with combination, oily, and blemish-prone skin. On the other hand, those with dry skin and sensitive skin may prefer other types of facial cleansers, such as cleansing balms, micellar water, and non-foaming gels or creams.
  • Do I need to use a facial cleanser if I have dry skin?

    It may be tempting to skip this step if your skin feels dry, flaky, or tight, but cleansing is an essential part of any skincare routine-it helps keep your pores clear of dirt, oil, dead skin cells, and other impurities.Dermatologists recommend that all skin types, including dry skin, use a gentle cleanser twice per day and after sweating.1 However, in order to keep your dry skin feeling comfortable and hydrated post-cleanse, it's important to select the right formula. The ideal product should cleanse your skin without leaving it feeling tight, dry, or stripped. CeraVe recommends choosing a daily face cleanser that's fragrance-free, allergy-tested, developed with dermatologists, and formulated to help maintain the skin's protective barrier.
  • How do I choose the best CeraVe face wash for my skin?

    Finding the right CeraVe cleanser for your daily routine begins with understanding your skin type. Some types of cleansers may be better suited for your skin type than others. Water-based, foaming face washes-like CeraVe Foaming Facial Cleanser-tend to be popular options among those with oily skin and blemish-prone skin. Foaming formulas usually offer a deep cleanse feel and can be especially effective at removing excess sebum (oil) from the skin's surface. Meanwhile, people with dry, sensitive, and eczema-prone skin often prefer non-foaming or lightly-foaming cleansers with a creamier texture, as these may feel more nourishing and gentle on the skin. For dry skin, we recommend trying CeraVe Hydrating Facial Cleanser, which gently cleanses and refreshes the skin without disrupting the skin barrier. When in doubt, a board-certified dermatologist can help recommend the best facial cleanser for your skin's needs.
  • What is an oil cleanser?

    Traditional oil cleansers, as the name suggests, are oil-based cleansing formulas. These products usually emulsify (lather) into a foaming texture when applied with water. They often feature plant-based oils in their formulas, such as squalane oil. CeraVe's Hydrating Foaming Oil Cleanser combines oil-based ingredients and surfactants in an efficacious cleansing formula.
