Light and gentle cream

I quite liked this one - I used it all over! I’m not sure about the exfoliating part but I definitely found it to be a nice light cream that left my skin feeling moisturized!

Tips: Use it everywhere - it’s great!

Really Good Product On a Budget

I've been using this on my skin as my chemo and radiation treatments have really dried out my skin.

It's fragrance free so doesn't irritate if you are sensitive to fragrance.

Nice and thick but not greasy and doesn't clog up your pores

It feels nice and moisturised. Definitely noticed the difference in the dryness of my skin.

I'm in love

I'm in love with this. Just as I am with the Smoothing Cleanser. I think in combination, these are a dream. My skin responds well to salicylic acid and I'm glad it's in this. It's been helping reduce my acne and KP. My skin is significantly smoother and clearer. This cream has such a lovely consistency. It is hydrating without being heavy and it dries with an almost blurring effect on the face. I haven't worn full makeup over this yet, so I'm not sure how it wears, but I have high hopes with the matte and blurring finish of the cream. I'm excited to keep using these products.

Tips: Wait a good amount of time after a shower before applying to the skin. The hyaluronic acid attracts moisture to your skin so using it on wet or warm skin will make it feel quite wet. Give your skin time to cool down and dry.

It really does smooth!

I'm loving my discovery of CeraVe - thanks Beauty Review!

I've been using this with the matching cleanser, on my face and body, for about 2 weeks now. I'm loving the gentle, fragrance-free formula and the soothing feel of the cream on my sore skin.

I have eczema on my face and body and it can be really sore especially in winter. I've never found a cream I could use on my face and body, usually body creams are too heavy.

This cream does seem to have a smoothing effect, my skin feels softer and more even.

I will definitely buy this again!

Great value hard working product

Grabbed from the Beauty Vault, I’ve been using the CeraVe SA Smoothing Cream twice a day after cleansing with the CeraVe skin Smoothing Cleanser. It’s very thick, smooths on easily and sits nicely over various serums or under makeup.

The CeraVe SA Smoothing Cream comes in a decent sized tube with a strong cap, for a reasonable price. As well as moisturising dry skin, it exfoliates. softens and smoothes rough skin, leaving my face super soft.

I was concerned that using such a heavy product would cause me to break out but it hasn’t - my skin is looking gorgeous! I just wish it contained SPF as I do need to consider the time of day, season and day ahead as to whether a product containing SPF is the more suitable choice.

I used the Dermalogica skin smoothing cream for several years until I was in a position where I just couldn’t justify paying it’s price and I actually like this product better!

Tips: Use in tandem with the CeraVe Skin Smoothing cleanser.

CeraVe SA Smoothing Cream

I love this stuff! I'm only my second tube now and have been using consistently for the past month or so.

I originally purchased this to help with Keratosis Pilaris on my upper arms and I'm also prone to 'Bimples' so I've been using it on my butt and thighs as well.

There's a marked difference in the places I've been using it and my skin just feels nicer. I'm sure the moisturing is helping as well, but having a leave on product is doing the world of good.

It's great that it doesn't seem to aggravate my already aggravated skin. No scrubbing and exfoliating needed, although I'm sure that helps.

The product is quite thick and relatively heavy. I personally don't think I would use it on my face, it feels more of a body product. It rubs in really well and you can definitely tell when it's been used because my skin feels smoother.

All in all I'm a fan and highly recommend.

Moisturising and protective

I've been using this smoothing cream for a week for the keratosis pilaris on my upper arms. It is a thick and nourishing cream that absorbs but leaves a protective barrier. When I get into the shower 24 hours later and my arms get wet they become slick as the smoothing cream is still there, protecting and moisturising; it doesn't just absorb and disappear. There is no greasy after effect after applying it. But best of all, in just one week I have noticed a distinct reduction in dryness, bumps, and roughness of my skin. I'm excited to have found products that can help with this problem as nothing else has made a difference, as I have it quite bad on my upper arms and behind my shoulders. Will continue to use it, and I'm sure it will get even better, which is great as summer is coming up and I'll want to bare my arms. Would highly recommend.

Skin feels supple and tightened

I liked this product as it was surprisingly dense/thick in texture while also being light to apply. Fragrance free is a bonus and my skin feels like there is a protective layer added from the cream and isn't oily. There is a tingling reaction on my skin, in a good way. particularly around the T-zone (cheek/ nose). After a week I don't see a visible difference in appearance yet, but skin feels great after using the product. Does what the packaging says which is softens and smooths rough skin. Will definitely try this when I have an eczema flare up.

Used in conjunction with the CeraVe SA Smoothing Cleanser, so difficult to say whether this product alone was effective, or the combination of the Cleanser and Cream.

New HG moisturiser for my dry sensitive skin

This moisturiser is the bees knees for my skin. I am using it after the matching body wash and having the most amazing results. I suffer from eczema, keratosis and when I’m not on my game I get psoriasis as well. Moisturisers can sting my skin and I find with my dry skin most that are effective are greasy and oily. Not this one though!! It’s lovely and thick and a little goes a long way. It’s in an easy to use squeeze bottle with the lid at the bottom to easily access that last remaining bit at the end of the bottle. It absorbs well and leaves no greasy or oily feeling and no scent to irritate you either. The best part about it is how plump and hydrated my skin feels even 24 hours after applying. I’m really amazed at how nice my skin is feeling. I actually took before and after photos of some dry psoriasis patches beginning to break out the day before I started and by day 3 they were practically gone with no use of steroid cream. So all my eczema/psoriasis babes out there it is sooooo worth trying. Definitely combine with the body wash. I’m so so happy with the results.

Tips: At the very end of the tube cut it open with scissors to scoop the remainder out. Definitely use in conjunction with the body wash it’s equally as amazing. Drink your water and stay hydrated

Cera Ve Smoothing cream

I was so excited to be part of this trial as I had been wanting to try this cream as soon as I saw it was available.

First off, I am a bit confused by this range. Is it for body or face? It doesn’t really say on the packaging but some online research led me find out it’s actually for both! I used it on my face once but it started smarting slightly so I decided to just trial on my body. I have super dry skin with bumpy upper arms, thighs and back. This cream is really thick so I was looking forward to the results.

My skin definitely felt softer, but I didn’t notice a difference in the bumps. I also think due to the consistency you need to use quite a lot of product and for the price point I’d be a bit hesitant to use this again as I have had better results with a cheaper product. It also left a residue on my skin which felt a bit slippery when showering again the next day.

Overall a nice product, there is no strong fragrance and my skin did feel moisturised and soft after using it for a few days. I was just hoping it would banish the bumps more!
