By Request: CeraVe Moisturizing Cream to Combat Cold Weather Dry Skin

Purchased (Affiliate Links)

A very longtime reader asked me what my favorite affordable, drugstore fragrance-free moisturizing cream was, and without hesitation I said CeraVe Moisturizing Cream. She then requested that I review it, and I was happy to oblige.

CeraVe Moisturizers, which are fragrance-free, were developed with dermatologists, and they are a perfect choice for people who have sensitive skin, and who avoid fragrances in their skincare products. Their lotions and creams a very moisturizing, and when my skin becomes reactive and irritated because of the products that I am testing, I routinely reach for CeraVe to provide moisture without further irritating my skin.

Their creams and lotions are emollient, deeply moisturizing and nourishing, and they protect and heal my cold weather dry skin. CeraVe Moisturizing Cream is thick, rich, emollient, super moisturizing and it heals dry skin effectively and efficiently. You might want to try using  this fragrance-free cream this season, if your skin is dry and chapped from the cold weather. I can use this on my face and body, and it really does a wonderful job moisturizing and protecting my skin. It does not include a sunscreen, therefore I use a high SPF sunscreen in addition to this cream, but it works well with all of the sunscreens that I have used with this cream.
