CeraVe SA Smoothing Cream Moisturiser with Salicylic Acid and 3 Essential Ceramides for Dry, Rough & Bumpy Skin 340g

I have never had very good skin - since it has always been acne prone - but I managed to keep on top of it with various products. Then three years ago I was diagnosed with thyroid nodules and hyperthyroidism. I had to have RAI and then developed hypothyroidism. Over this time all hell broke loose regarding my skin. My acne got worse, and I developed KP on my arms and legs with scaly patches, and skin tags (which were removed). I also had Seborrheic Kerastosis and hyperpigmentation on my face and arms. I could never be seen without a thick primer and foundation.I spent a fortune on all the usual "acids" and Ameliorate (for KP) and it just seemed to get worse. Then I found CeraVe SA Smoothing Cream. The reviews looked so good that I optimistically bought the large pot. I can honestly say from the first day I tried it I was very impressed. The KP on my arms and legs and the scaly skin almost immediately started to improve and has now vanished.Although not meant for the face - I tentatively tried it on my SK. As elsewhere it caused no adverse reaction and is slowly reducing that as well, and appears to be helping with the hyperpigmentation too. It is still early days - so I am sure things can only get better. At first I only used it on certain areas of my skin - but because it has proved to be such a great product - I shall now use it more widely over my body to smooth and moisturise. I highly recommend this product to anyone with skin problems.

I recently “properly” discovered cerave products and I am in love.I have just started using their cleanser and this cream and my face has actually never looked better. Most of the bumps are gone and my skin feels so moisturised.I will spread the word of cerave everywhere!!LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT🌼

I bought this hoping it would help the KP on the backs of my arms, and it didn't. They felt a little smoother, but the multitude of red dots remained. I persisted for quite a long time with it too.The cream is excellent for dry skin - I have really dry elbows that nothing has ever touched, but this does an excellent job of keeping them soft and moisturised.The cream is incredibly sticky, even if using just a small amount and for that reason I find myself not using it too often. It's an amazing cream and if it sank in to the skin quickly I would use it all over, every day. But there's been times where I've used it on my arms and legs in the early evening after a shower and have still felt sticky from it hours and hours later when going to bed. But I also felt very moisturised... This isn't the miracle I was hoping for by any means, so on with my search I go.It smells strange, it isnt scentless. It's not a nice smell... But it's not necessarily a bad smell, to me it smells very lightly like jalapenos.. strange!

Bought this as I have small lumps on the top of my arms that where unsightly in the summer weather - tried this following reviews in combination with the body cleanser wash as well and the results have been visible. It takes some getting used to the cream as it forms a barrier on the skin so your skin feels different (not sticky or oily or greasy just a little tacky), however it is much smoother and feels and looks better.

Glad I took the risk in purchasing this cream, after reading the reviews of them not being safety sealed mine arrived sealed! Very quickly delivery with in 3hours! Can’t wait to see how the cream works for my daughter

happy

Cleared up dry skin behind my ear almost immediately! Recommended by dermatologist.

had high hopes for this cream given its ingredients and reputation, but unfortunately, it didn’t work as well as I’d hoped for my psoriasis-prone skin. While the texture is smooth and it absorbs easily without feeling greasy, it didn’t provide the level of relief I was expecting for the rough patches caused by psoriasis.The salicylic acid is supposed to help exfoliate and smooth out the skin, but I didn’t notice a significant improvement in the areas where my skin tends to flare up. Probably because the % of salicylic acid is less. I wish the Cerave Psoriasis Moisturiser from USA was available here in the UK on Amazon which has a higher strength of salicylic acid.That said, it still functions as a good basic moisturizer and does a decent job of hydrating dry areas, just not for more stubborn skin conditions like psoriasis. For general use, it’s fine, but if you're looking for something specifically for psoriasis, this might not be strong enough.
