Luxury facial and body cleanser promising gentle cleansing and sustained moisture. Calm, comfortable skin after each wash helps those with normal to very dry skin feel less tight and irritated. Is CeraVe Hydrating Foaming Oil Cleanser the right daily cleanser for sensitive or dry-combination routines?

⚡ At a Glance
  • Cleansing Action: Soft foam lifts dirt and impurities while keeping skin comfortable
  • Best for: People with normal to very dry skin seeking a gentler daily cleanser
  • Not ideal for: Those needing heavy-duty makeup removal or oil-control formulations

Gentle, foaming oil cleanser formulated to cleanse without harsh stripping. Designed to support hydrated, calmer-feeling skin after use.


Sustained hydration - with MVE Technology and three essential ceramides

MVE Technology controls release of moisturising components over time, while three essential ceramides work to respect the skin's natural barrier. The combined approach aims to keep skin hydrated for an extended period.

Longer-lasting moisture reduces tightness after washing and helps maintain barrier resilience during daily routines.

Comforting cleanse without dryness - with squalane and natural skin oils

A soft foaming formula contains squalane alongside naturally occurring skin oils to create a gentle lather that cleanses and comforts. The formulation is designed to avoid aggressive stripping of lipids.

Skin feels softer and less taut after cleansing, suitable for repeated daily use on drier skin types.

Versatile use across skin areas - with a mild, dermatologist-developed formula

Developed with dermatologists and presented as suitable for face and body, the formulation is mild enough for delicate areas and formulated for broad application. Labelling indicates suitability for babies as well as adults.

Can be used as a single, simple cleanser for face and body in family routines, reducing the need for multiple products.
