CeraVe Hydrating Hyaluronic Acid Water Gel Facial Moisturizer 1.7 oz — Lightweight, Fragrance-Free

CeraVe Hydrating Hyaluronic Acid Water Gel is a lightweight, fragrance-free facial moisturizer that delivers fast-absorbing, long-lasting hydration while supporting the skin’s natural barrier.

This gel-cream blends ceramides, hyaluronic acid, niacinamide and Copper PCA into a fast-absorbing, dry-touch formula engineered to hydrate and help strengthen the skin’s barrier. Developed with dermatologists and formulated for sensitive and oily skin types, the water-gel texture sinks in quickly and uses MVE delivery to release moisture over time.

How quickly will I feel hydration after applying this gel?

You can expect immediate smoothing and a hydrated sensation within seconds, thanks to the lightweight water-gel base. The formula also contains mechanisms for staged release so moisture is maintained long after the first application.

• Fast-absorbing gel that leaves a non-greasy, dry-touch finish
• Hyaluronic acid helps attract and hold moisture at the skin surface
• MVE Delivery Technology slowly releases hydration for hours
• Designed to provide sustained hydration over multiple days with regular use

Will this product help calm and balance sensitive or irritated skin?

The formula is fragrance-free and non-comedogenic, with niacinamide to help soothe visible redness and support barrier recovery. It’s crafted to be gentle while delivering hydration and barrier-supporting lipids.

• Niacinamide helps reduce irritation and improve skin tone appearance
• Contains three essential ceramides to restore barrier lipids
• Fragrance-free and oil-free to reduce potential irritation
• Suitable for sensitive and acne-prone skin when used as directed

What skin concerns does the water gel target and how should I use it?

This moisturizer targets dehydration, compromised barrier function and surface dullness by combining humectants, barrier lipids and antioxidants. Apply after cleansing and any lightweight serums; use morning and night as part of your routine.

• Use after cleansing and serum for best absorption
• Works well under sunscreen and makeup due to its dry-touch finish
• Regular use reinforces barrier support through ceramides and niacinamide
• Antioxidant Copper PCA helps protect against environmental stressors

How does the formula deliver long-lasting moisture without feeling heavy?

The water-gel texture is designed to penetrate quickly, while MVE Delivery Technology meters out emollients and humectants over time. This layered approach gives a lightweight feel on application and sustained hydration across hours.

• Water-gel base absorbs quickly without a greasy residue
• MVE controlled-release system prolongs moisture delivery
• Ceramides replenish essential skin lipids to lock in hydration
• Hyaluronic acid draws moisture to the skin surface for plumping effect

Who is this for: This CeraVe Hydrating Hyaluronic Acid Water Gel suits anyone seeking a fast-absorbing, non-greasy moisturizer that supports the skin barrier—especially people with normal to oily, combination, or sensitive skin who want reliable, long-lasting hydration without added fragrance. It also fits easily into morning or evening routines and layers well under sunscreen or makeup.
