Can this be used on babies? Looking for a mineral sunscreen with very low or no zinc oxide.
- Asked by Charlie's mom
- Official Answer By CeraVe - BEHi there! We do have some products specifically designed for babies. The main difference in the Moisturizing Cream and Baby Moisturizing Cream formula is that the Baby Moisturizing Cream has a paraben free preservative system. We are working on updating the Moisturizing Cream to use a similar paraben free preservative in the near future. We recommend use of the Moisturizing Cream for ages 13 and older. The Baby Moisturizing Cream is recommended for ages 1 month and older.Was this answer helpful to you

Lightweight and Oil Free
I like this product because it is lightweight, water resistant, and applies smoothly. I purchased the 2 oz. size which fits nicely in my purse. The reason why I bought it was because it was highly rated in a national magazine and was said to be invisible and not leave that white residue that most ...

So disappointed
Sorry to say but imo this is one of the worst facial sunscreens I have ever tried. It's supposed to be "invisible" but it is so thick and white that I looked like I dusted my face with flour. I had to wash it off with an oil cleanser after about 15 minutes because my skin couldn't breathe due to t...

The worst whitecast
This sunscreen leaves a very visible white cast and simply cannot be blended. It does have a greasy effect on the skin and is very hard to remove off your face. I wouldn't recommend at all.
Dracula Cosplay perfection
Only purchase this if you are comfortable looking like you covered your face with halloween dracula makeup. If you have ANY pigment this makes you look like a clown (coming from a white person). My boyfriend immediately started laughing and told me I look like I have consumption and need to go to the sea.
White Chalky Paste
I bought this sunscreen for my 10-year-old child, but I am disappointed with it. The formula is not hydrating. It is extremely waxy and doesn't rub into the skin at all. No matter how much I try to blend it in, it just won't absorb, which is quite frustrating. While I understand that this sunscreen is intended for the body, I don't want my child to be left with a thick layer of white paste on their skin. I have used generic sunscreens in the past that absorb easily with a little rubbing, but the CeraVe Hydrating Mineral Sunscreen simply does not perform well. This has been the worst sunscreen I have ever tried. It seems like they may have designed it to prevent usage on the face, which is why it's so difficult to blend into the skin. However, most people typically use one SPF for their face and another for their family. In any case, this product does not meet the basic performance standards for a mineral sunscreen for use in 2025.
I look like a ghost
This leaves a crazy white cast, it also doesnt layer that well with makeup
Unwearable - crazy white cast
I cannot use the sunscreen 'daily' at all daily. Unbelievable white cast and feels heavy and greasy.
