#SpringCleaning #ProductAlert @cerave CeraVe Cleaning Routine Puts A Spring In Your Step this Season Says #WhomYouKnow @ManhattanPeachy

Everyone knows that spring has been here for some time, and though it's often your house you associate with spring cleaning, we want to bring to your attention some fabulous cleaning products from one of our favorite brands, CeraVe that are the ultimate in skin cleaning!  We love their effectiveness.  Yet, this is a brand that is the result of intelligent doctor research and also is gentle on your skin and it doesn't wash harshly.
Note that all of these products we find to be unisex and good for every human with skin regardless of how you identify.  We identify with excellence, and we highly recommend the following four products for your optimal cleaning routine.
Get started with your body: SA Body Wash for Rough & Bumpy Skin!
SKIN SMOOTHING FORMULA SKIN SMOOTHING FORMULA
Salicylic acid body wash to exfoliate skin

Spring is here but summer is coming and you know that means showing more skin.  Are you ready?  Exfoliation is one of the most effective ways to improve skin texture. We recommend a gentle exfoliating salicylic acid body wash formulated with ceramides to help restore the skin’s natural barrier, hydrating hyaluronic acid and niacinamide. CeraVe SA Body Wash for Rough & Bumpy Skin combines these ingredients to help smooth and improve rough, bumpy skin.

CeraVe SA Body Wash for Rough & Bumpy Skin provides gentle, non-irritating cleansing plus exfoliation to improve skin texture without harsh microbeads that can scratch the skin. In addition, our salicylic acid body wash features niacinamide to soothe the skin, hyaluronic acid to retain the skin’s natural moisture and three essential ceramide to maintain the skin’s protective barrier.
SA Cleanser Bar for Rough & Bumpy Skin - we find this to be extremely similar to the above wash however if you are traveling, this is so much easier to carry!  And if you aren't traveling, it is good to have double duty.

SOAP-FREE BAR CLEANSER FOR ROUGH & BUMPY SKIN SALICYLIC ACID
Dual exfoliation salicylic acid cleanser bar for body

Rough, bumpy skin has uneven texture and feels coarse to the touch. Common on the legs and backs of the arms, rough skin can be the result of dryness or a buildup of dead skin cells. A bar-based salicylic acid cleanser that provides both chemical and physical exfoliation along with barrier-reinforcing ingredients like ceramides can be a beneficial cleansing option for rough and bumpy skin.

Developed with dermatologists, CeraVe SA Cleanser Bar for Rough & Bumpy Skin features dual action exfoliation in convenient bar form. This gentle, soap-free bar provides chemical exfoliation with salicylic acid and physical exfoliation with spherical jojoba beads to gently sweep away dead skin cells and improve the look and feel of rough, bumpy skin. Formulated to deeply cleanse and thoroughly remove dirt and oil, it also softens and smoothes skin without disrupting the skin’s protective barrier or leaving it feeling tight or dry.

Foaming Facial Cleanser: what could be more important than your face!?!?
FOR NORMAL TO OILY SKIN OIL CONTROL
Foaming gel cleanser for normal to oily skin

We like this best for end-of-day cleansing before you put on your serum and moisturizer.  A foaming gel face wash is ideal for removing excess oil, dirt, and makeup. When choosing a facial cleanser for normal to oily skin, it’s important to look for a formula that's gentle, won’t disrupt your skin’s natural protective barrier (which can leave skin feeling dry or tight), and contains ingredients that help maintain its moisture balance.

When selecting a face wash for normal to oily skin, it’s essential to look for a formula that will deeply cleanse, without disrupting your skin’s natural moisture barrier.

Developed with dermatologists, this non-drying face wash for normal to oily skin deeply cleanses, removes excess oil, and refreshes your skin without disrupting the skin barrier. This gel-based facial cleanser is an effective, yet gentle way to cleanse and care for your normal to oily skin.
Hydrating Toner: this seals the deal!
FOR NORMAL TO DRY SKIN ALCOHOL FREE
Gentle pH Balanced Toner that Hydrates

Finally, Facial toners are used after cleansers to help remove any residue left after cleansing. CeraVe’s Hydrating Toner, our first ever pH balanced and non-drying toner for the face, helps skin feel energized while moisturizing and helping restore the protective skin barrier. The fast-absorbing hydrating toner softens and helps smooth dry skin while locking in moisture for refreshed, healthy-looking skin.

Developed with dermatologists, CeraVe Hydrating Toner, with ceramides, hyaluronic acid, and niacinamide, helps restore the skin’s natural protective barrier for improved hydration, and helps visibly smooth and calm skin.

About CeraVe
Founded in 2005 and developed with dermatologists, CeraVe is the first and only brand to offer a complete line of products containing essential ceramides and patented MVE technology to help restore the skin's natural protective barrier. CeraVe has a full line of skincare products to follow the dermatologist-recommended steps of: cleanse, treat, moisturize, and protect. The brand's mission is to provide therapeutic skincare for all. For more information, visit the brand on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter or at www.cerave.com.

History and Company Overview
Our mission is to provide therapeutic skincare for all and we do so by being the first and only brand to offer a complete line of products containing three essential ceramides and patented MVE technology to restore the skin’s natural protective barrier.

Through our early research with dermatologists, we learned that the key components of the skin barrier –ceramides – were deficient in skin conditions such as acne, eczema, psoriasis and dry skin, which lead to a compromised skin barrier. As a result, skin identical ceramides became the hero ingredient of CeraVe and US researchers partnered with leading dermatologists to help create a line of skincare products designed to help restore and maintain the skin barrier, specifically for those suffering from chronic skin conditions and unable to find a solution. CeraVe began as part of a pharmaceutical company that focused on Dermatology, since our debut, the brand has continued to stick to a formula-first philosophy – prioritizing a valuable product at an affordable price over costly, luxury packaging.


- Where is the brand based?


CeraVe was acquired by L’Oréal in 2017, which has helped to expand our reach and innovation pipeline. As such, CeraVe is based in New York City, but has expanded and is available in more than 35 countries worldwide.


- When did the brand start? What was the first product?


CeraVe was founded in 2005 after significant research and development work with dermatologists and skin experts to develop products that would deliver therapeutic skincare for all. The first three products at the brand’s inception were Moisturizing Cream, Hydrating Facial Cleanser and Daily Moisturizing Lotion.
