CeraVe Daily Moisturizing Lotion
Updated Nov 8, 2026 · Top Moisturizing Lotions
Best for Normal to slightly dry body skin that found the CeraVe tub too heavy.
The lotion version of CeraVe's ceramide cream. CeraVe says the lotion is lighter and oil-free, with the same three ceramides, glycerin, and dimethicone, and without the petrolatum that makes the tub occlusive. Use it on the body when the cream feels greasy, and on the face only if you are not very dry. The National Eczema Association seal and the Wirecutter dry-skin pick belong to the cream, not automatically to this bottle. It is still the plain, fragrance-free lotion to buy before a scented one.
