- Q
Is this product gluten free? I am extremely sensitive to gluten and was wondering if i could use it.
- Asked by ash
- Official Answer By CeraVe - BEHi there! Most ingredients derived from grain sources are highly refined and retain no traces of gluten proteins. For less refined ingredients from natural sources, Cerave has established strict limits on the level of potentially allergenic proteins. Since individuals exhibit a wide range of sensitivities to these proteins, if you have any questions or concerns you should discuss with your medical care provider. All the ingredients we use in a product are listed on the package or the label of the product itself. For products too small to accommodate the list, a separate ingredient list is available on the display unit in the store for your convenience. Since some ingredients are known by more than one name, we use the standard industry FDA-recognized names. A review of the ingredients that are listed on all of our products or packages will alert you to the presence of this type of ingredient.Was this answer helpful to you

I use this every day
I'm glad I bought this before I read some of the negative reviews. Everyone has such different skin and I may have stayed away from this product once I read those, I'm glad I didn't! For reference: I am 44, acne prone, with dark skin and have eczema -- I'm allergic to a lot of products. I am also ...

Horrible reaction to this moisturizer!!
If I could give this zero stars I would! I bought this AM Facial Moisturizing Lotion because I ran out of my normal facial lotion during a business trip and had heard good things about CeraVe. I was so mistaken. Upon first application on my face the following day, it stung a little around my eye...

Mediocre at best
Great that it has zinc ozide but is NOT moisturizing and doesn't absorb into the skin very well (often leaves white residue).
So disappointing
Definitely returning the lotion! It feels greasier than I would like, it does not absorb well into the skin, and when you try to work it in better it just starts peeling, it looks awful! I wiped it off my face as soon as I could
Not as good as a thought
I bought it because my skin always reacts good to Cerave products, but this was just bad. Leaves a white cast and if i try to blend it in, it starts pilling. Even after washing my face good and exfoliating, and NOT having anything under this product.
Cerave- please create a version of this without the casting
I love cerave products but this one i just can't do. The white casting is awful. Its 2025, there's a way to make it effective without the white stuff. I don't recommend
Pills badly
