According to a CeraVe representative, ceramides, fatty acids that make up 50% of the skin's natural outermost layer lipids, are one of three components that form the protective barrier, retaining moisture and preventing damage from environmental factors. This helps limit acne, eczema, psoriasis, and atopic dermatitis.

However, natural ceramides are often lost due to aging, direct sun exposure, and other environmental aggressors. Therefore, to maintain healthy and beautiful skin, it's recommended to supplement with essential ceramides.

Many people believe that only dry skin needs moisturizing, but this is a misconception. According to several NCBI articles, dry, oily, acne-prone, and sensitive skin all require hydration. Each skin type benefits from specialized products that support a smooth, healthy complexion.

From its inception, CeraVe, with its deep understanding of skin science, has made ceramides the core of its skincare lines, incorporating its exclusive MVE technology. The brand's legacy lies in its skincare formula, which combines three essential ceramides (1, 3, and 6-II) and provides 48-hour hydration.

The company offers a diverse product range, from facial to body care, emphasizing gentleness, moisturizing, cleansing, and hydration.

The body care line features lightweight formulas containing hyaluronic acid and three key ceramides. These products absorb quickly, promote a non-greasy feel, support hydration, restore the skin's protective barrier, are non-comedogenic, and help prevent clogged pores. Consumers can choose between lotion and cream formats, catering to both normal and dry skin.

Beyond cleansing, the brand believes in replenishing moisture after washing, avoiding clogged pores, controlling excess oil, and maintaining gentleness.

"CeraVe facial cleansers are oil-free, non-drying, and gently exfoliate," the manufacturer's representative stated. "The products contain niacinamide to soothe and maintain the skin's natural moisture with hyaluronic acid. Most importantly, all our facial cleansers contain the three essential ceramides."

The facial line restores the skin's protective barrier, providing 10 layers of moisturization and 48-hour hydration. Meanwhile, the Oil Control Moisturizing Gel-cream contains a complex of niacinamide, silica, and cornstarch to help control oil, tighten pores, and is suitable for oily and acne-prone skin.

For normal or treated skin, the PM Facial Moisturizing Lotion contains hyaluronic acid and niacinamide to help retain water and soothe the skin. The moisturizing sunscreen with SPF 50 PA++++ and UVA/UVB filters helps prevent the effects of pollution and restores the protective barrier, making it suitable for all skin types.

"Acne care isn't just about treatment, it's about restoring the skin and avoiding irritation or a continuous cycle of breakouts," the brand representative emphasized. With this philosophy, CeraVe launched the Blemish Control line: a dual-action system designed to break the acne cycle. The line includes a cleanser, gel, and serum.

Specifically, the CeraVe Blemish Control Cleanser helps deep clean, control oil, and reduce blemishes thanks to salicylic acid and pure clay, while also containing three ceramides to maintain a healthy skin barrier.

The Blemish Control Gel, containing a gentle AHA/BHA complex, exfoliates, reduces blackheads, diminishes dark spots, refines pores, and maintains the skin's protective barrier.

The Resurfacing Retinol Serum, with encapsulated retinol, accelerates cell turnover, reduces post-acne marks, and evens skin tone with licorice root extract.

The entire product line, developed by experienced dermatologists, contains three essential ceramides (1, 3, and 6-II) to help restore the protective barrier and provide gentle hydration.

"CeraVe is the number one skincare brand in the US and is recommended by many experts," the brand representative added. "Consumers should thoroughly research products before use and purchase from authorized retailers to avoid ineffective products."
