Hydrating Cleanser Bar
This product bridges the gap between a traditional bar and a therapeutic skin treatment. It contains three essential ceramides and hyaluronic acid to lock in moisture while cleansing, which is rare for a bar format.
Quality & Materials
Features Ceramides (1, 3, 6-II) and Hyaluronic Acid. 5% CeraVe Moisturizing Cream is integrated into the bar.
Evidence & Testing
Ceramides are clinically proven to restore the skin barrier. The product is developed with dermatologists and carries the NEA seal.

Value Assessment
Slightly more expensive than basic bars but functions as both a cleanser and a light moisturizer, potentially saving money on post-shower lotions.
Why Not Alternatives?
Standard bars often strip the skin's lipid barrier; CeraVe actively replenishes it during the wash. It is superior to the Dove Beauty Bar because it uses MVE Delivery Technology for controlled release of hydration throughout the day.
