CeraVe Facial Moisturising Lotion SPF30 52ml is the brand's daily morning moisturiser with built-in broad-spectrum UVA/UVB protection. The lightweight, oil-free lotion combines three essential ceramides, niacinamide, hyaluronic acid and the brand's patented MVE technology to deliver up to 24 hours of hydration while protecting the skin from everyday sun exposure — all in a single step suitable for normal to dry skin.
About CeraVe
CeraVe was developed in the United States in 2005 in partnership with dermatologists, and built around a simple premise: most facial moisturisers cleanse or hydrate, but few help repair the skin's natural barrier. The brand's MVE (Multivesicular Emulsion) technology releases ceramides gradually throughout the day, and CeraVe is now widely recommended by dermatologists as a daily-use barrier-supportive line.
Key ingredients
- 3 Essential Ceramides (NP, AP, EOP): Skin-identical lipids that help reinforce the natural barrier and reduce moisture loss.
- Hyaluronic Acid: A humectant that draws water into the skin to maintain hydration through the day.
- Niacinamide: Helps soothe the look of redness and supports a more even-looking complexion.
- Broad-Spectrum SPF30 filters: A blend of organic UV filters (Avobenzone, Octisalate, Bis-EHMT, Ethylhexyl Triazone) to protect against UVA and UVB rays.
- MVE Technology: CeraVe's patented delivery system releases hydrating ingredients gradually for up to 24 hours of moisture.
Key benefits
- Provides broad-spectrum SPF30 UVA/UVB protection for daily use.
- Hydrates the skin and supports a comfortable, balanced barrier.
- Lightweight, oil-free, non-comedogenic — suitable for use under make-up.
- Fragrance-free formulation, suitable for sensitive skin.
Who it's for
Designed for normal to dry skin in need of a one-step morning moisturiser-and-SPF, but its lightweight texture also suits combination skin. Particularly suited to anyone whose routine struggles with separate sunscreen layers — pilling, white-cast or comedogenicity. Suitable for daily use, year-round, on the face and neck.
How to use
- Use as the final step of your morning skincare routine, after cleansing and any serums.
- Apply two finger-lengths of the lotion to the face and neck — roughly the standard quantity needed to deliver the labelled SPF protection.
- Massage gently in upward motions until evenly absorbed.
- Reapply throughout the day to maintain sun protection, particularly after swimming, sweating or towel-drying.
- For evening use, switch to a non-SPF moisturiser such as CeraVe PM Facial Moisturising Lotion.
