CeraVe SA Smoothing Cleanser

This is a good liquid cleanser with gentle ingredients. It is fragrance free and comes with a pump which is fantastic hygiene wise. You dont need a lot as it turns into a foamy consistency. It has salicylic acid to resurface the skin and get that smooth feeling, BHAs such as SA can be harsh on the skin but nope! this one was nice and didn't even feel stripping. I used this on my face and my body. I was seeing more results on my face than my body, preventing my breakouts. It didn't seem to do a lot for my keratosis pilaris but definitely softer. I would like to try it longer on my body.

This cleanser is AMAZING! I was honestly a little nervous trying this, the skin on my body suffers dryness, eczema, keratosis and occasionally if I don’t keep on top of it I get psoriasis too. Most body washes even sensitive ones leave my skin dry and tight almost immediately after rinsing off while I’m still in the water. However Cerave cleanser was designed for dry, rough sensitive skin so I was excited to give it a go. In a nice rectangular shaped bottle with a pump for ease of use in the shower. It has a slight scent but no fragrance and is clear and nice thickness so it doesn’t run out of your hands while washing. 3 pumps were enough for my whole body as it lathers nicely. Once rinsed off I noticed no tightness. I use this combined with the moisturiser and noticed a huge improvement after the first application. After a week of using both my skin feels and looks amazing. It’s definitely given me more smoothness and less bumps and roughness. At 33 it’s making me feel like my skin on my body isn’t as dull and dry. I will definitely repurchase again this stuff is amazing

A cleanser you can comfortably use on your body...and your face?! It's true!

I suffer from eczema and have for years. I have patches over my face and body, and struggle with cleansers being too rough or too irritating.

This cleanser is really gentle, and doesn't feel overly 'soapy'. It doesn't make my skin tight and it didn't aggravate my sore and tender patches.

I found it did definitely reduce the severity of my eczema patches and combined with the cream, left skin really quite supple and soft.

I will continue using this happily and can't wait to see what further results I get!

I didn't really think I suffered too much with rough bumpy skin but dryness and irritation yes, which was one of the reasons I tend to switch to different cleansers preferably natural based and no or low fragrance.Well hello to beautiful ,hydrated ,smooth and bump free skin after only a few days of use,the difference to the texture and appearance of my skin has blown me away! Ok the packaging is pretty plain and simple almost clinical looking like something a Doctor would prescribe and the font size could of been a tad bigger for those of us with poor eyesight, but the product itself was easy to use with a pump top action that gave you practically a mess free application.The texture is quite a thick consistency,clear in colour and I loved that there was no fragrance,.Being hypoallergenic and non-comedogenic assures you that you won't react in an allergic way to the product and you won't end up with any blocked pores,a winning combination for sensitive skin. I like the consistency and it does feel lovely and soothing to use on my skin with no irritating fragrance or other ingredients that might cause my skin to flare up.I wasn't too sure about using this on my face but I went ahead and tried it using only a couple of pumps and avoiding the eye area and then applied a few more pumps of product to the rest of my body so overall I would of used approx 6 pumps.I didn't notice much of a lather on my face or body but what I did notice was how soft and smooth my skin felt and after a week of using the cleanser my skin just looked so hydrated and healthier with all dry patches completely gone! so if a product can do this to my skin in a short time then I am sold! My adult son also was intrigued about this cleanser so he tried it out on his skin and even he agreed how soft and smooth his skin was only after one use.In terms of value for money I think price wise this is a little bit up there but the difference it will make to your skin and how gentle the product is makes it worth seriously considering.I know this is one product I will continue using especially since it was developed by dermatologists and is specifically for those with sensitive skin so yes I thoroughly recommend it.

This is a good cleanser - especially on the body. It foams well and is very gentle on the skin.

I think the small pack size is deceptive, it will last a while!

I began using this on my face, but I found it just a tad too drying on my face, so I 'demoted' it to my body and I'm enjoying the results. The backs of my arms feel much smoother and those horrible red bumps have begun to reduce which is amazing!

So why isn't it love? Well, I guess as it's a 'prescriptive' product, it's tailored for results more than user experience. I like a body wash that enlists my senses, notably scent. I want a scent explosion in the shower and I want to smell nice after it. This is just all a bit meh in terms of shower experience.

That being said, if you enjoy fragrance-free products and are looking for a body wash to target KP or ezcema, then this is definitely worth giving a go!

This product has really changed my life. I have suffered with red bumps my entire life. I've tried creams and exfoliation but it seems to just irritate. This cleanser I have used for around 2 weeks and it has really reduced the look and feel of these bumps dramatically. I really enjoyed the smell as it was a light fragrance. It wasn't tingly or stingy at all which I was concerned about. The bottle is an easy pump bottle and comes out really well. The subtle colours of the bottle were lovely and not too bright in my bathroom. My partner noticed a massive difference in the appearance and feel of my arms. I also discovered that using the cream and cleanser together made a huge difference. Used in conjunction with each other these really work. This product is honestly worth the hype and I fully recommend.

Both my teenage daughter and I loved this cleanser. I’m usually just a micellar and reusable wipes gal, and so is she, but this is great for an extra clean, lux feel. We both have eczema and although mine has been better as I’ve gotten older, I still get dry, rough patches on my face and on my hands in particular. This cleanser did not irritate our sensitive, dry skin, especially my daughter as she gets some eczema around her eyes at times and it was gentle for her. It gave a good clean and fresh feel and was great at removing make up too, although I will probably continue to use micellar first especially for my eye makeup and then this as a second clean, which we should do anyway! Our skin felt very soft after using and it has a rich foam which feels luxurious, and quite different to a lot of sensitive cleansers or cleansers for eczema prone skin that don’t lather much. Overall it’s a great product that does what it says it does, improving rough areas through exfoliating salicylic acid, and niacinamide, which I also found great for the odd hormonal spot we both get at that time of the month. It also contains hyaluronic acid and ceramides which make the skin feel so soft and smooth and moisturised, not stripped away like a harsh cleanser, and I’ve noticed the small bumps I get on my face have improved. I’m keen to see what more it does over time. It is fragrance free and doesn’t smell bad like some products can and it doesn’t sting or hurt on broken skin. I recommend this for anyone with sensitive skin, eczema, rough or bumpy patches and it’s great used in combination with the Cerave smoothing cream. Probably great for combination skin as it is moisturising while also healing. I’m buying more Cerave products now!

On receiving this product for trial was impressed by the size. Larger than usual cleanser sizes and with a pump dispenser which I love. Consistency of product was fluid like and with no high fragrance. Applied to damp skin it had a foaming like affect. I usual use cream cleansers so this was a different feel for me. It cleased my face well and my skin was left feeling fresh and clean and smooth. Was great when showering on problem body areas and reduced the feel of rough dry skin.
