What this page covers
CeraVe started in 2005 in the United States, created by a group of dermatologists looking for simple formulas that could support the skin barrier. The name joins two central ideas: ceramides and MVE (MultiVesicular Emulsion) technology, a delivery system that releases moisturizing ingredients gradually over several hours.
Most formulas rely on three skin-identical ceramides, paired with hyaluronic acid and niacinamide as recurring actives across the range. The brand's better-known products include the Moisturizing Cream in a tub, the Hydrating Cleanser and the PM Facial Moisturizing Lotion, sold through pharmacies and general retail. Since 2017 CeraVe has belonged to the L'Oréal group, within its dermatological beauty division.
This page lists the brand's products with their INCI composition broken down. Each ingredient carries a rating based on the available evidence – a traffic-light signal plus an A–F tier – along with notes on use during pregnancy. Evigrade works as an independent educational reference: you can check what each formula contains and how well each active holds up, without medical advice or product sales.
