CeraVe


Like a lot of people I know I have sensitive skin. But unlike the people I know mine goes a little deeper. I have Eczema. I find that using different products (Lotion, Face Wash and Face Moisturizer) can be a challenge because I have a CUPBOARD full of stuff I can't use and find that I have a hard time finding something I CAN use. I have found a line called CeraVe.

How CeraVe® Works (from their Site)

What makes new CeraVe Skincare products so remarkable is that they work to help restore and maintain the skin barrier — the skin’s natural protective function.

What else makes CeraVe so special?

  • CeraVe is the only skincare line with unique, patented Multivesicular Emulsion (MVE®) delivery technology which used to be available only in prescription formulations
  • CeraVe contains special skin-nurturing and protective ingredients including essential ceramides that moisturize and soften skin and help to repair and maintain the skin barrier
  • CeraVe was developed with dermatologists to help skin barrier repair in conditions such as eczema, psoriasis and dry skin
  • CeraVe can be used alone or may compliment certain topical medications used for eczema, psoriasis, acne, and rosacea
  • CeraVe offers therapeutic benefits without a prescription — and an elegant formulation with essential ceramides — at an affordable price
CeraVe skincare product results are enhanced by the use of MVE Technology.

The Role of MVE® Technology

The unique, patented Multivesicular Emulsion (MVE®) delivery technology in CeraVe Skincare products provides multiple layers of skin-nurturing and protective ingredients to the skin slowly over time.

The advanced MVE® delivery technology in CeraVe® ensures that these ingredients—including essential ceramides, hyaluronic acid and emollients, that moisturize and soften skin—penetrate deeply into the skin to hydrate and nourish. It is also designed to allow for continued absorption of these ingredients throughout the day while “locking in” precious moisture.

This means that CeraVe® Skincare products keep working to help restore and maintain the natural protective function of the skin barrier long after you apply them.

Other Products with MVE® Technology

Unique, patented MVE® delivery technology is only available in products from CORIA Laboratories. Importantly, MVE® delivery technology is designed to compliment the therapeutic effect of a medication.

My thoughts. I have found that their Moisturizer, PM Formula and Cleanser do not react against my skin but help restore some of the lost moisture that is missing.

The moisturizer I put on pretty much every morning and after showers to help restore and protect. It feels light weight and smooth unlike a lot of heavy creams that people with Eczema are prescribed and I feel like it helps keep that nice moisture for a while. Like I said I have uber dry skin so I have to reapply often but for just a regular dry skin this would most likely just get you through the day. If you have tried this I would love to hear your thoughts.

I like this cleanser because it cleans but doesn't leave the skin dry. It is formulated to hydrate while cleansing and definitely does the job right. After cleansing I follow up with the CeraVe PM formula for my face.

The P.M formula is like most P.M formulas in the sense it is a little thicker. This helps with the controlled release to keep hydrating through out the night. I personally use this as an AM and PM formula both. I like the smooth feel as it goes on and absorbs nicely not leaving a TACKY feel to your face.

CeraVe does have an AM formula if you like something lighter for your face that contains an SPF for the day.

If you are still looking for something that will be compatible with your skin I definitely suggest checking CeraVe out.

Find CeraVe on the WEB, Facebook, and Twitter.
