My Go-To Daily Face Lotion
This product works well, is moisturizing and doesn’t leave a weird film on my face that some sunscreen face lotions do! It does have a slight sunscreen smell to it but nothing too strong. The packaging is perfect for packing for travel!

Don’t Waste Your Money
This stuff is terrible!! I rubbed a little on my face and neck and it left white little blobs all over! Even got it in my hair. I had to go shower. This is a worthless product. Gross!

Protect your skin
This product is very good, is rapidly absorbed, protects you against the sun, leaves no traces of product on your skin, the best thing is that it keeps your skin hydrated.

SO disappointed
I am SO disappointed. This lotion does not absorb into my skin but pills and remains as white spots all over my face. I bought a double pack and now have to toss them both

Not good. Pills very bad.
I love CeraVe but this sunscreen is a miss. I’ve tried so hard to like this sunscreen, but it’s just awful. It could work if you never wear any makeup or serums, but if you use anything underneath it pills SO bad. I tried it again recently and it was pilling so bad that I couldn’t even rub it into my skin— it would just pill more and more and I ended up with all these w...

What happened to the formula?
Was the formula recently changed? I’ve used this moisturizer for about 3 years now and then as of last year all of a sudden it pills like crazy all down my face. No other products are on my face. I wash my face with CeraVe foaming face wash and then put the moisturizer on and TONS of pilling. What happened?

Response from Staples :
Hello lacyg! It is frustrating when a longtime favorite product begins to pill, but this can often be resolved with a slight adjustment to your application technique. Pilling typically occurs when the physical sunscreen filters in our AM Lotion don't fully bond with the skin, so we recommend applying the moisturizer to slightly damp skin and gently pressing it in rather than using a circular rubbing motion. This helps the formula and its essential ceramides create a smooth, even protective barrier without the product bunching up into residue.

Disappointed in the Product
I have never had this problem before. My dermatologist told me to choose an oil free moisturizer. In using very little while applying to the face, I find that I am getting a white crumbly residue which I then have to wipe off my face. This leaves me to believe that very little moisturizing will be done when using it. Any suggestions?

Response from Staples :
Hello dee dee! The white residue or "pilling" you are experiencing can sometimes occur when the physical sunscreen filters and the moisture-retaining ingredients in our formula do not fully bond with the skin’s surface. Because this lotion is oil-free and utilizes our MVE technology to release hydration throughout the day, the way it is applied can significantly impact its finish. To ensure the ceramides and SPF are distributed effectively without the formula crumbling, we recommend applying the lotion to skin that is still slightly damp from your morning cleanse. Instead of rubbing the product in, try gently pressing and smoothing small amounts into your skin in one direction. This method helps the formula create an even, protective barrier that stays in place, allowing the moisturizing ingredients to work efficiently without the residue being disturbed.

Subpar
This just doesn’t work for my skin. As many other reviewers have mentioned, it pills a ton and it does not seem to fully absorb. It also leaves white film across my face, without any other products underneath and on a clean face. It feels like this could be the sunscreen overpowering the moisturizer in some way. I will not be buying it again or recommending it to anyone...

Response from Staples :
Hello Jason! We are sorry to hear that the AM Facial Moisturizing Lotion has not been a seamless fit for your morning routine. The pilling and white cast you described are often related to the physical sunscreen filters like zinc oxide, which are designed to remain on the skin’s surface to reflect UV rays, combined with our MVE delivery technology. To help the formula absorb more effectively and minimize any residue, we recommend applying the lotion to skin that is still slightly damp from cleansing and using a "tap and spread" method rather than vigorous rubbing. Applying the product in small, thin layers across different zones of the face can also prevent the formula from bunching up or sitting too heavily. Giving the lotion a few minutes to fully set after application helps the protective barrier lock into place, ensuring you receive the full hydration and SPF benefits while maintaining a smoother finish.

Love it
This was recommended my my dermatologist and I love it for the spring and summer. It’s affordable and does a great job of keeping me moisturized. I have combination skin on the dryer side, so this is not a great moisturizer for the winter. My only complaint is that it does burn my eyes, most likely due to the SPF.

Leaves skin feeling hydrated and makes it glow!
I’ve been using this sunscreen in my skincare routine for nearly 4 years. I have extremely sensitive skin and it’s never given me any issues!! It leaves my skin feeling hydrating and glowing without it feeling greasy or oily. My only complaint is it will occasionally ball up.

Over and out
It's time for me to give up on Cerave products for my face. They sting and burn - from the gentle cleanser to the 30 and 50 sunscreens, to the cream. I wanted to love them because they're affordable, fragrance-free, and have less ingredients than most to irritate me. I'm going back to what I always end up going back to. Bye, Cerave. P.S. 67 years young. Incredibly clear...

Recommend for oily skin!
I really love this lotion with sunscreen! It’s super light, easy to spread, and absorbs quickly. It feels great on oily skin — very fresh and non-greasy. I also love the convenience of having moisturizer and sunscreen in one, so there’s no need to layer two separate products. Definitely recommend!
