In this review, we will take a closer look at a product called CeraVe AM Facial Moisturizing Lotion. The manufacturer claims that this product provides UV protection as it contains SPF 25. They also state that the product helps to restore the protective skin barrier with its lightweight, non-greasy lotion. Keep on reading to see what CeraVe AM Facial Moisturizing Lotion can do for you and if it is an effective product.
Ingredients
- Homosalate
- Meradimate
- Octinoxate
- Octocrylene
- Zinc Oxide
The ingredients mentioned above include the active ingredients as stated by the manufacturer. They also provide a list of the inactive ingredients. CeraVe AM Facial Moisturizing Lotion claims that the 3 essential ceramides and hyaluronic acid in the product provide all-day hydration after just using it once. They also add that it is safe to use on sensitive skin. Unfortunately, they do not indicate what the active ingredients in the product can do for you. We had to do some research and found that all the active ingredients are usually found in sunscreens. We also found that there are no patented ingredients provided as well as a lack of essential ingredients such as almond oil and shea butter.
Instructions
Unfortunately, the manufacturer does not indicate how the product must be used. All we can see is that it is a daily moisturizer. It does, however, come in a pump bottle. With regard to how the product must be used and when always make sure this is clear as incorrect use can affect the product’s effectiveness.
Price
Unfortunately, the product cannot be purchased directly from the manufacturer’s website. Customers will be redirected to Amazon. Here a 3-ounce bottle is sold at $12.99. This is a very cheap price and may indicate low-quality ingredients. The manufacturer also provides a $2 coupon on any of the products.
Guarantee
The manufacturer does not confidently back their product with a solid money-back guarantee. The absence thereof will leave the customer at risk. It is always best to choose a manufacturer that provides a rock solid guarantee.
Conclusion of Our CeraVe AM Facial Moisturizing Lotion Review
After our review for the product CeraVe AM Facial Moisturizing Lotion, we came across a few positive aspects. We like the fact that the lotion comes in a pump bottle for convenient use.
Unfortunately, we also came across a few negative aspects. First of all, it seems like the product does not contain patented ingredients that are clinically proven to be effective. The active ingredients in the product only provide UV protection and do not seem to provide hydrating and moisturizing properties. Furthermore, the manufacturer fails to provide any usage instructions. Also, the product is very cheap in comparison with other brands and may explain the lack of credible ingredients. Finally, the product is not backed by a guarantee and financial risk is involved.
In conclusion, we do not think CeraVe AM Facial Moisturizing Lotion is very effective and we encourage you to search for an alternative product.
