CeraVe Intensive Moisturizing Lotion for Extra Dry Skin, 16 oz — Hydro‑Urea + Shea Butter, Long‑Lasting Hydration

CeraVe Intensive Moisturizing Lotion is a rich, fast-absorbing body lotion with Hydro-Urea™, shea butter and three essential ceramides to deeply hydrate and help restore the skin’s protective barrier.

This dermatologist-developed formula targets extra dry, itchy skin with ingredients chosen to replenish moisture, support barrier repair, and deliver long-lasting hydration without a greasy residue. The lotion combines Hydro-Urea™ to attract and hold moisture, CeraVe’s signature three ceramides to rebuild the skin’s protective lipids, and MVE Delivery Technology to release hydration over time. Fragrance-free and pH balanced, it’s intended for daily use on body, hands and feet when skin needs intense, non-sticky relief.

How quickly does this lotion relieve dryness and itching?

The formula is designed to act at the moment of application: Hydro-Urea™ plus shea butter provide immediate softening, while MVE Delivery Technology continues releasing moisturizing ingredients for hours. Many users notice reduced tightness and less surface flaking right away, with improved overall hydration after repeated use.

• Fast-absorbing, non-greasy feel on contact
• Hydro-Urea™ to attract and retain moisture in surface layers
• MVE system provides controlled, extended release of moisturizers
• Soothes signs of dry skin such as tightness and itch

Will this lotion help repair the skin barrier and prevent future dryness?

Yes — the three essential ceramides in CeraVe Intensive Moisturizing Lotion support the skin’s natural lipid matrix, helping to rebuild and maintain barrier function. Regular twice-daily application can improve the skin’s ability to retain moisture and resist environmental stressors that cause recurring dryness.

• Contains ceramides to reinforce barrier lipids
• Clinical-style formulation intended for ongoing use
• Improves moisture retention with consistent application
• Suitable for sensitive skin and varied skin tones

Is this product suitable for sensitive or reactive skin?

The lotion is fragrance-free, allergy tested, and pH balanced, making it appropriate for many people with sensitive or reactive skin. Its gentle formulation avoids common irritants while providing concentrated hydration, but patch testing is recommended for anyone with a history of severe reactions.

• Fragrance-free and allergy tested
• pH balanced to respect natural skin acidity
• Non-comedogenic for body application (not a facial claim)
• Recommended daily use for sustained comfort

How and where should I use this lotion for best results?

Apply daily to dry areas of the body—particularly arms, legs, feet and hands—immediately after bathing to lock in moisture. Massage until absorbed; the non-greasy texture makes it easy to layer under clothing. For severe dryness, apply twice daily to maximize barrier repair and hydration retention.

• Use after showering on damp skin to seal moisture
• Apply to body, hands and feet as needed
• Twice-daily application increases hydration benefits
• Works under clothing with no sticky residue

Who is this for: CeraVe Intensive Moisturizing Lotion is formulated for people with dry to very dry, itchy skin seeking a clinically minded, fragrance-free moisturizer that delivers immediate comfort and ongoing barrier support. It’s suitable for all skin tones and most sensitive skin types, and is particularly helpful for those who want a rich, non-greasy cream for body, hand, and foot care.
