How to use CeraVe Daily Moisturizing Lotion 

What’s ur skin type

❤️

Same

You’re welcome 😊

Remove the water drops with a clean towel before applying your moisturizer. Avoid applying any skincare products to wet skin, as this only causes problems.

Hey! 😊 Where are you from? Some of CeraVe's products may vary depending on your location or where you order them from. To get the US version, take a look at Amazon US. That's how I usually do it.

@@MelissaVanDijkOfficialis this acne safe

@@g-50taetae What's your skin type? What skincare products do you currently use?

Does it cause acne??

Hmm, this sounds a bit unusual. But why did you choose to use lotion to treat your dry skin condition? And are you certain that what you're experiencing is actually dry skin and not just skin flakes?

Hmm, it doesn't really have a scent.

@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial Oh.. mine feels like it has a scent. also after applying, my face feels quite tight and not really moisturised as opposed to the soft feeling others describe. Is my product a fake then?

@@Itsstorytime281 Well, it doesn't have a perfume scent, more of a mild sweet chemical scent. Do you apply it to dry or 'damp'/wet skin? Also, which cleanser do you use?

@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial I use the Cerave SA renewing cleanser, which does kind of make my face feel quite tight but not overly dry

Yes, this can happen with some cleansers; however, the skin should bounce back to its normal state within half an hour.

Yes :)

before :)

The steps are as follows: Cleanse. Pat dry. Apply The Ordinary Niacinamide. Follow with CeraVe Daily Moisturizing Lotion. Skincare Routine Steps ru-vid.comRGqwdAuPOco

Why would you do this? Who has done such videos, can you link them? It's a moisturizer, not a mask, just leave it on.

Well, are you referring to a hydrated appearance or a shiny/greasy look? Also, is your skin type dry, normal, or oily?

@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial Hi, Melissa. Yes, my skin neither look nor feel hydrated, seems like I don't have any moisturizer. But I can't say it looks flaky. I have a normal skin with a oily T zone, so I assume it's a combination one. Doesn't suit products for dry or oily skin 😢. I think this product will suit me in summer.

@@cya1308 Normal skin typically has a matte appearance and can sometimes look a bit dull or even grey. If your skin isn't dry, flaky, or cracked, what you're experiencing is likely just normal skin. The cream you used before contained oils, which is why your skin appeared a bit shiny. Once you stop using it, your skin will return to its normal state. However, for oily to normal skin, the CeraVe lotion might be too rich. A gel-type moisturizer with dimethicone, like the CeraVe Ultra-Light Moisturizing Gel would be more suitable: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-kMCE4OXLI_I.html

@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial That was helpful. Thanks a lot ❤️

It's because the moisturizer is meant for dry skin, and your skin is likely not dry. So yes, skip the moisturizer altogether. Try just using the SA cleanser; if it becomes overly drying, then skip its use for a day or so. During that time, you could use the regular CeraVe foaming cleanser. So basically, alternating between the SA cleanser and the foaming cleanser works best for me :)

never skip the moisturizer, try to find another one suited for your skin type

@@igballehasani9910 In 99% of the cases, it's nonsense and just a marketing strategy.

@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial alright

@@igballehasani9910 I believe moisturizers are most necessary for situations where someone has dry, cracked skin. That's when they're most beneficial, especially if someone has a medical condition like eczema. However, in routines where virtually every product already provides hydration, additional moisturizing is not needed. What frustrates me is seeing salespeople and some dermatologists which have becomes salespeople on RU-vid promoting moisturizers in this way, causing people to spend a lot of money unnecessarily. It's unfortunate that many prioritize profit in such a self-serving manner in the world we live in.

Well, I would just avoid bringing it too close to the actual eye, as it might get into the eye otherwise, but overall, yes.

Yes, that's fine. However, if you are prone to acne or have more of an oilier skin type, I recommend using a Hyaluronic Acid Toner, Essence, or Serum, such as those from Isntree, Vichy Mineral 89, or COSRX Hyaluronic Acid, etc. You leave it on for the entire day and then rinse it off at night, etc. :)

​Thank you very much! I will definitely try Vichy Mineral 89!🤍​I'm just interested in how the use of Vichy Mineral 89 serum works? And how should I put it? Would you recommend any Lancome product for my skin? @@MelissaVanDijkOfficial

@@svetlanamandic9785 See here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Rz0Vn_78L2Y.htmlsi=eJGLDLKdyvdnuqpy I haven't tried any Lancome products, so I don't know! :)

@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial Can I use Vichy Aqualia Thermal Rich Cream? If you've used it, tell me your impressions and how to put it on. :)

@@svetlanamandic9785 No, I haven't tried that one :)

None, haha! Do not use a cleanser or anything else. Just wash your face with water, pat/rub it dry and leave your skin alone! :)

@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial but i have an open pores

@@jaal7 If it's caused by oiliness, you may want to look into Niacinamide or Salicylic Acid, something that regulates oiliness. However, I also recommend reading through this post: ru-vid.comUgkxDpfFN90vkWK8knvwDlkqRSoDDZZzX3vG

@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial thank you

What do you mean by that? Face wash and cleanser are the same thing, just different terms :)

I recommend patting the skin dry. What's your skin type? Using a moisturizer suitable for your skin type can help protect your skin from harsh weather.

@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial your video was really helpful! I have no idea what my skin type is, but I use the cera VE Day and night, and it seems to be helping so far, I just started as well. I’ll try patting instead; I live in a communal housing and so the bathroom has those paper towels

yes

@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial thank you!

What do you mean when you say "it has problems"?

?

So, I recommend stopping its use.

You should only use the CeraVe Daily Moisturizer, but not the body cream, on your face. Or, what exactly do you mean? 🤔 Could you please be a bit more specific?

Immediately I watch your video then I went out to buy cerave daily moisturizer I was probably think if I could allow moisturizer and my Nivea cream together

@@henryfejiro4463 Ah, I see. Well, the CeraVe Daily Moisturizer is similar to Nivea cream in that it's just a lotion and is lighter on the skin. Overall, it has a better formulation.

How do you use it? Do you apply it to wet or dry skin? What cleanser and other skincare products do you use?

Well, it has a bit of a chemical smell, but I wouldn't describe it as glue. 😉

Hmm, it could be many things, but most often, it's just an initial reaction, and using it again may lead to improvement. Did the reaction calm down quickly? If so, I would probably try using it again over the next few days, but on a smaller area, to see if it's any better. If not, then I would discontinue use. Alternatively, you could ask the pharmacy for more advice, as you can show them the reaction in case it was particularly severe. Please keep me updated. It would be interesting to know what caused it :) Thanks.

Thanks a lot for your response .i went to the pharmacy, and she said You should stop LRP effaclar duo .""As she said, I did the same. I use cerave lotion again. I didn't have any reaction again.

@@zahidhayatzada8269

No, however, it is not the best for oily skin. It is more suitable for dry to normal skin types.

Its for normal to dry skin types.

Yes, although if you have oily skin, I recommend getting a gel-type moisturizer :)

@@MelissaVanDijkOfficialcan u recommend gel type moisturizer

@@holdup7065 CeraVe Ultra-Light Moisturizing Gel or The Ordinary Natural Moisturising Factors + Beta Glucan.

Is the skin around your eyes so dry?

@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial really dry due to adapelene, even thought i never put adapelene directly around my eyes, maybe its getting affected. i want to put moisturizer around my eyes, but my moisturizer right now tend to get my eyes teary and hurts, so i skip putting moisturizer around my eyes. I want to know about this cerave lotion is it comfortable for eyes area? Thank ,,,😊

@@yuyukangkang5768 Yeah, it's spreading to the surrounding areas because the skin is an organism. However, it's also influenced by weather conditions and your overall skin condition. This means that if your skin is already dry, it exacerbates the issue as the skin attempts to balance itself. There isn't much you can do about this, except for reducing the frequency of use or managing it during the period you're using the treatment. For example, if you use the treatment for three months, you may still experience this effect for the benefits afterward. However, some individuals may find it difficult to tolerate, and they may need to reduce the frequency of use, discontinue use altogether, or switch to a lower strength formula. As for moisturizers, it really depends on your personal skin tolerance to the individual ingredients. You could try different formulations to see if they help, but it's impossible to provide a one-size-fits-all recommendation.

No see here: Difference Between CeraVe Lotion and Cream ru-vid.com1Uhl8Xf_6i0

This is very helpful, thank you!

It should form a protective layer that remains on the skin's surface, helping to reduce moisture loss. :)

@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial tysm!!

Oh, this is specifically for dry skin. It's designed to help prevent or alleviate dryness.

In this video, I showed NIOD SPF :)

Do you really feel the need to use cream on your face and body?

I'm not. The first 'towel' is not a towel; it's a washcloth, and after rinsing, I use a normal but small bathroom towel.

@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial👍

No, it's fragrance-free, but it doesn't have no scent at all. Some describe its smell as slightly chemical or clinical.

No, there are different versions. See here: incidecoder.com/search?query=cerave+lotion

@@MelissaVanDijkOfficialis there a difference between the two?

@@Katelynmangan I mean, just click the link and compare the ingredients. Sometimes, a few ingredients change due to regulatory issues or marketing strategies, but overall the formulations remain very similar.

@@MelissaVanDijkOfficialthanks I have the lotion!its great

@@Katelynmangan

if you have dry to very dry skin yes :)

@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial no I meant like the dry to dry skin lotion instead of the normal to dry, my skin type is really oily so would it be okay if I use it?

ah no, use their new Ultra-Light Moisturizing Gel@@mukhtarsalaudeen4794

@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial okay, thanks a lot

How about unbalanced skin tone, one part of my face is really dark and the other is light

Yes, just make sure that it suits your needs. If you generally have drier skin, it may be a good option. However, if you have oily skin, I would still recommend going with a gel formulation such as The Ordinary Natural Moisturizing Factors with Beta Glucan or G&G Hydration Station.

@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial thanks so much for the reply

Hmm? To which product are you referring?

@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial same from CeraVe

@@PhantomThief76 this one? ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-UlA74phH67U.html

Using too much moisturizer can disrupt your skin's natural moisture barrier, which is responsible for retaining moisture and protecting your skin. It can create a thick layer on the surface of your skin, hindering its ability to breathe and absorb moisture from the environment, ultimately leading to dryness. Therefore, it is important to only use the amount of moisturizer that your skin really needs. Generally, one pump is sufficient, but you may need slightly more or less depending on the size of your face. Additionally, choosing the right cleanser for your skin is crucial, as well as establishing a proper skincare routine if you have one. Furthermore, the lotion is not ideal for oily skin; it is more suitable for dry to normal skin types. For oily skin, I recommend to use a gel moisturizer instead, such as Neutrogena Hydro Boost Gel Cream or The Ordinary Natural Moisturizing Factors Gel or G&G Hydration station.

@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial thank you for the info💗💗!

Plz tell me CeraVe moisturizing lotion is good for close comedones sensitive acne prone skin ?)

yes

I have already done such videos before; however, I haven't done one specifically with CeraVe's Moisturizing Lotion, so I'm not entirely sure - but it would be interesting to know. If you only use it for your face and apply about a bean-sized amount, it will probably last you for several months.

@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial 355ml ?

I'm really not sure how long it would last.

Yes this can work. However, I personally prefer to use something more lightweight like a gel-cream or gel-type moisturizer :)

Do you experience dryness? Have you ever investigated the root cause of your acne? Factors like stress, lack of sleep, or your diet (excessive sugar, processed foods, or foods you may not tolerate well) could be triggering your breakouts.

@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial wrong products cause my acne close comedones problem plz tell me CeraVe moisturizing lotion normal to dry is good for close comedones sensitive acne prone skin??!

@@RimShaFaiSaL-ch2bf If that's the case, what about not using any skincare products at all and just leaving your skin alone? I can't tell you how your skin is going to react to that product, as it's very individual.

​@@MelissaVanDijkOfficialI want to ask can cerave hydrating cleanser and normal to dry skin can be used for oily skin.

@@ankuranand151 No, I wouldn't use that one for oily skin. Instead, use a foaming cleanser - like the one from The Ordinary or Beauty of Joseon.

I asked cerave on tiktok they said I can use the dry one they said it’s good for normal skin type and sensible too?

Are you still referring to CeraVe's Moisturizing Lotion? If so, they should be the same (the US version labels Normal to Dry Skin, whereas the UK version says Dry to Very Dry Skin).

@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial you can suggest me any it’s not important cerave

@@miss_rajpoot You can get CeraVe's Moisturizing Lotion. However, I would look into a gel or gel-cream formulation, like Geek & Gorgeous Hydration Station :)

@@miss_rajpoot However, if you do not have any skin concerns and your skin feels great without a moisturizer, just cleanse your face and use sunscreen during the day if you're exposed to it.

Ok.

Hm...they are all pretty rich in my opinion. I would look for a Hyaluronic Acid serum (from CeraVe, The Ordinary, The Inkey List, etc) or gel-type moisturizer (The Ordinary or Neutrogena) instead :)

@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial thanks love

@@lifex2736

Hmm, it shouldn't smell like glue. May I ask where you got it from and how you stored it? Are you living in a hot climate?

oh no :(

@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial red rashes are not visible much just looks like pores are opened and feeling slightly itchy but looks like it’s removing the acne spots and making my skin hydrated so I’m continuing

Hey! :) What else do you use? What's your skin type? Do you have acne-prone skin?

@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial I use it with cosrx snail mucin essence. I have acne-prone skin. But I heard it's suitable for all skin types

@@titiola6363 Have you started using both products at the same time?

@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial No.. I have been using cosrx snail mucin essence for some months now and I have not had any issues with it

@@titiola6363 Okay, why don't you go back to the Snail Essence and simply use that as your 'moisturizer' to keep your skin hydrated? It's perfectly fine to use the Snail Essence on its own

Vous pouvez l'obtenir dans les pharmacies locales ou en ligne, etc. Cependant, si vous aimez votre crème actuelle, utilisez simplement celle-ci ; c'est bien.

What's your skin type and what are your skin concerns? What else do you use?

@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial i have normal skin i m 35 years old i use this for simple night skin care routine

@@Islamkiduniya_23 So, what skincare products are you currently using? As it may not be the lotion alone.

@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial last 3 days only cerave moisturizing lotion

@@Islamkiduniya_23 So, stop using it to see what happens, and based on that, decide whether or not you want to keep using it.

No, the difference between lotion and cream isn't necessarily related to where they're used (face or body), but rather to their formulation and consistency. Creams are generally richer, making them more suitable for dry to very dry skin, aging skin, or areas with extra dryness like elbows and knees. However, creams can also be used on the face, especially for people with dry to very dry skin or during winter months when the skin requires more moisture. On the other hand, lotions are lighter. They contain a higher percentage of water, making them easy to spread over the skin. Due to their light consistency, lotions are often preferred for use on the body and are beneficial for skin types that aren't overly dry or oily. They're also commonly used on the face, especially for those with normal to dry skin. I hope this helps.

Yes it helps thanks
