“During the day you protect. At night you repair. I share this advice with all my patients. Finding a daily moisturizer that not only protects skin from UV radiation but also strengthens the skin barrier while preventing water loss and dehydration can be challenging. CeraVe AM Facial Moisturizing Lotion with SPF 50 contains ceramides, hyaluronic acid and niacinamide to strengthen the skin barrier, lock in moisture and reduce inflammation. With Invisible Zinc Technology and a lightweight formula, this product dries clear without any ashy residue and is suitable for any skin type.”

Product Details

Moisturizer and sunscreen are essential in any skincare routine for hydrated, healthy-looking skin. CeraVe AM Facial Moisturizing Lotion combines moisturizer and sunscreen to hydrate your skin while helping to absorb and reflect the sun’s damaging rays. This daytime multitasker features broad-spectrum SPF 50 sunscreen and beneficial ingredients like our three essential ceramides, hyaluronic acid, and niacinamide. It also includes MVE Delivery Technology, which releases a steady stream of moisturizing ingredients for continuous, all-day hydration.


The lightweight, fast-absorbing formula blends easily into all skin tones with no white residue and leaves your skin feeling smooth, hydrated, nourished, and soothed. Developed with dermatologists, our AM Facial Moisturizing Lotion is an ideal pick for normal to dry skin types: It’s fragrance-free, allergy-tested, non-comedogenic, paraben-free, and formulated to help maintain and restore the skin’s protective barrier. It also layers well under makeup without pilling. Use this hydrating lotion each morning after cleansing to reveal softer, smoother, and healthier-looking skin. For sunscreen protection, apply it throughout the day (as needed) and reapply at least every two hours.
