Best CeraVe Products To Use For Your Skin Type

A Guide to Which CeraVe Products You Should Use, According to Your Skin Type

As POPSUGAR editors, we independently select and write about stuff we love and think you'll like too. If you buy a product we have recommended, we may receive affiliate commission, which in turn supports our work.

If there's anything we love more than a high street skin-care brand, it's a high street skin-care brand with products that actually deliver. Take CeraVe, for example. It's the budget-friendly brand that's grown a huge following over the years, especially now that a mass of TikTok users regularly tout its products. CeraVe boasts a lineup of products that are simple yet effective, and many of them have become favourites of Hyram Yarbro, a TikTok star and skin-care enthusiast with over six million followers on the platform, editors, dermatologists, and other product lovers read their ingredient labels with a critical eye.

If you have yet to try out any of the brand's products and are curious which ones are actually worth the hype, we've put together a short guide to help you figure out which ones might give you the best results depending on your individual skin concerns. Read ahead to see which CeraVe products you should add to your skin-care routine according to your skin type.

Dry skin tends to lose moisture and needs help maintaining a healthy skin barrier through long-lasting hydration. Look for hydrating cleansers and moisturisers as well as products with ceramides in them to restore your moisture barrier. A hyaluronic acid serum is also a good product to turn to in this instance, and it can be layered under your moisturiser for added hydration.

People with oily skin need help with one thing: sebum production. Look for cleansers with gentle exfoliating acids (like salicylic acid) that unclog pores and remove excess oil. With moisturisers, look for a lightweight formula that won't leave the skin feeling greasy. Niacinamide, which is a callout ingredient in the brand's night moisturiser, also helps to control excess sebum production.

Balanced skin sits right in the middle of both ends of the spectrum: it's not too oily and it's not too dry, but you should still pay attention to the products you use. Make sure your skin is regularly receiving the proper amount of moisture and protection from harmful outside elements.

If your skin is acne-prone, it's always best to consult with a dermatologist on a skin-care routine, since breakouts can be caused by a handful of different things. The main thing to focus on with this skin type is treating the blemishes with gentle exfoliators and maintaining your moisture barrier with lightweight lotions that won't clog pores.
