Cerave Salicylic Smoothing Cream for Rough & Bumpy Skin - 340 g
Product Overview
The CeraVe SA Smoothing Cream for Rough & Bumpy Skin is a specialized, non-greasy moisturizer designed to exfoliate, soften, and smooth compromised skin barrier. Developed with dermatologists, it tackles stubborn texture, scales, and extreme dryness on the body without disrupting the skin’s protective moisture barrier.
What It Is Used For
This cream is primarily formulated for targeted body care. It is highly recommended for:
-
Keratosis Pilaris (KP): Softens the small, hard plug-like bumps commonly found on the back of the arms and thighs (often called "chicken skin").
-
Strawberry Legs: Clears out dark, clogged pores and rough texture on legs post-shaving.
-
Extreme Dryness & Scaling: Smooths out rough, scaly skin on friction-heavy areas like elbows, knees, knuckles, and heels.
-
Ingrown Hairs: Gently exfoliates surface skin buildup to help trapped hairs break through easily.
Key Benefits
-
Dual Exfoliation: Combines Salicylic Acid (BHA) and Lactic Acid (AHA) to gently dissolve dead skin cells and loosen rough patches without the need for harsh, abrasive physical scrubs.
-
Deeply Hydrating: Formulated with 10% Urea and Hyaluronic Acid, which act as powerful humectants to bind moisture tightly into dehydrated skin cells.
-
Barrier Restoring: Infused with 3 Essential Ceramides (1, 3, 6-II) that instantly mimic your skin's natural lipid barrier to lock in moisture and lock out irritants.
-
24-Hour Moisture Release: Utilizes patented MVE (MultiVesicular Emulsion) Technology to steadily release hydrating ingredients throughout the day for continuous comfort.
-
Highly Tolerant Formula: Free from artificial fragrances and parabens, and it is non-comedogenic (won't clog pores).
