Say goodbye to dehydrated skin with CeraVe
Breakouts, dry skin and skin irritation are some of the most common concerns among beauty consumers, and in a market so saturated by beauty brands and products promising to give you that “glazed donut” skin, it can be hard to know what products to use and where to spend your money.
CeraVe was recently introduced into the New Zealand market, but they have been established since 2005, firmly planting their feet in the beauty realm and boasting an impressive range of skin products for every skin type. CeraVe sits under the L’Oréal umbrella and has been developed by dermatologists to create a range of products that not only work but are also gentle enough to use on all skin types. Their accessible ranges come with a modest price tag and are available in Chemist Warehouse nationwide.

What sets CeraVe aside from other skincare brands are their efficient use of ceramides within their formulas and the way the ceramides are delivered into the skin with their MVE slow release technology - this is a revolutionary design that makes the formula more effective at delivering hydration into the skins moisture barrier. People with skin conditions tend to have lower ceramide levels and CeraVe’s range of products are specifically designed to deliver ceramides into the skin while restoring the skin’s moisture barrier and providing 24 hour hydration.
Simplicity and minimalism are key focus points for the CeraVe brand, the use of minimal ingredients within their products, as well as being fragrance-free and non-comedogenic make this brand suitable for all skin types and even suitable to use on children and those experiencing
mild eczema.
