CeraVe Intensive Moisturising Lotion Shea Butter 16 oz — Hydro-Urea, 3 Ceramides for Dry Skin

CeraVe Intensive Moisturizing Lotion is a rich, fast-absorbing shea butter body moisturizer formulated with Hydro‑Urea™, three essential ceramides, and MVE Delivery Technology to hydrate, soothe, and help restore the skin’s moisture barrier.

Developed with dermatologists, this 16 oz bottle targets dry to very dry skin that feels tight, rough, or itchy. The formula combines a hydro-urea complex that supports natural moisturizing factors with CeraVe’s patented MVE controlled‑release system and three ceramides to deliver sustained hydration without a greasy finish. Fragrance‑free and allergy‑tested, it’s balanced for sensitive skin and daily use across all skin tones.

How quickly does this lotion relieve dryness and itch?

The lotion is designed for fast absorption and immediate soothing on contact; many users notice reduced tightness and itchiness after application. The Hydro‑Urea™ complex and shea butter deliver deep moisture while MVE Technology releases emollients over time to extend relief.

• Immediate, non‑greasy absorption for quick comfort.
• Soothing effect aimed at relieving itch due to dryness at first use.
• Controlled release of moisturizing ingredients for hours of hydration.

What ingredients make this different from a basic body lotion?

Key actives set this formula apart: Hydro‑Urea™ supports the skin’s natural moisturizing factors, three ceramides help rebuild and maintain the skin barrier, and MVE Delivery Technology provides progressive, long‑lasting hydration. Shea butter adds rich emollience without leaving a sticky residue.

• Hydro‑Urea™: hydrates within surface layers of the skin.
• Three essential ceramides: support barrier function and skin resilience.
• MVE Technology: controlled release for sustained moisture.
• Shea butter: rich texture that soothes and conditions.

How should I use it for best results and where on my body?

Apply daily, or twice daily for very dry areas, to clean skin. Massage thoroughly into the body, with extra attention to elbows, knees, heels, hands, and any visibly dry patches. Regular use helps maintain hydration and defends against the five common signs of dryness.

• Use after showering to lock in moisture from damp skin.
• Apply to hands, feet, arms, legs, and torso as needed.
• For persistent dryness, use morning and night for ongoing improvement.

Is this lotion suitable for sensitive skin and everyday use?

Yes — the formula is fragrance‑free, pH balanced, and allergy‑tested, making it appropriate for sensitive skin and daily application. It’s formulated to be non‑irritating while still delivering intensive hydration for dry to very dry skin types.

• Fragrance‑free to reduce the risk of irritation.
• pH balanced and allergy tested for gentle performance.
• Suitable across skin tones and many skin types, including sensitive skin.

Who is this for? CeraVe Intensive Moisturizing Lotion is aimed at people with dry to very dry, itchy, or rough skin who want a dermatologist‑developed, non‑greasy moisturizer for daily use. It’s a practical choice for anyone seeking long‑lasting hydration and barrier support — from busy adults needing fast absorption to athletes, caregivers, or anyone with seasonal or chronic dryness. Use it as part of a regular skincare routine to maintain smoother, healthier‑looking skin.
