Product Description:
-
Size: 237ml (8 fl. oz.)
-
Key Benefits:
-
Helps smooth rough, dry skin with a combination of salicylic acid (SA) and ceramides.
-
Hydrates the skin while gently exfoliating to help improve texture and soften bumps caused by keratosis pilaris (KP).
-
Ideal for those with dry or rough skin, including those who struggle with uneven texture or keratosis pilaris.
-
Key Ingredients:
-
Salicylic Acid (SA): A beta-hydroxy acid (BHA) that works as an exfoliant, helping to break down dead skin cells and reduce rough patches and bumps.
-
Ceramides (1, 3, and 6-II): Essential lipids that help restore and maintain the skin’s natural protective barrier. These ceramides help retain moisture and prevent skin dryness.
-
Hyaluronic Acid: A moisture-retaining ingredient that helps draw hydration into the skin, keeping it soft and smooth.
-
Lactic Acid: Another gentle exfoliant that helps improve skin texture and smoothness without irritating the skin.
How it Works:
-
The CeraVe Renewing SA Lotion gently exfoliates with salicylic acid, which helps remove dead skin cells and promotes the regeneration of smoother skin.
-
The formula also contains ceramides and hyaluronic acid to lock in moisture, which is essential for keeping skin hydrated and preventing dryness.
Usage:
-
Apply liberally to the skin, especially to rough, dry, or bumpy areas like the arms, legs, elbows, and knees.
-
It can be used on both the face and body, though users with sensitive skin should test it on a small patch of skin before full use.
-
For best results, use twice daily (morning and evening) for ongoing smoothing and hydration benefits.
Additional Features:
-
Non-comedogenic: Will not clog pores, making it suitable for all skin types, including sensitive skin.

Ideal For:

Those seeking a gentle exfoliating lotion that will improve skin texture while moisturizing.

Always use sunscreen during the day when using exfoliating products like this, as exfoliation can increase sensitivity to the sun.
FAQs
Can I use CeraVe Renewing SA Lotion on my face?
Yes, you can use this lotion on your face, but it’s important to note that salicylic acid can be a bit strong for some sensitive skin types. If you're using it on your face, start with a patch test and apply a thin layer to see how your skin reacts. If irritation occurs, discontinue use or apply it less frequently.
How often should I use CeraVe Renewing SA Lotion?
For the best results, use the lotion twice a day—morning and evening—on affected areas like dry, rough patches or skin with bumps (e.g., keratosis pilaris). If your skin is sensitive, start with once daily or every other day and gradually increase use as tolerated.
Is this lotion safe for sensitive skin?
CeraVe Renewing SA Lotion is designed to be gentle, but it may not be suitable for highly sensitive skin due to the presence of salicylic acid and other exfoliating ingredients. If you're unsure, do a patch test before applying it to larger areas of your skin.
Can I use this lotion with other exfoliating products?
It's not recommended to use this lotion in combination with other exfoliating treatments, especially those containing AHAs (alpha-hydroxy acids) or more salicylic acid, as this can increase the risk of skin irritation or sensitivity. Stick to one exfoliating product at a time and always moisturize afterward.
