How to Moisturise Your Face with CeraVe According to Dermatologists

Why Does My Daytime Moisturiser Need SPF?

SPF—which stands for “Sun Protection Factor”—is a measurement of how well a particular sunscreen protects against the sun’s ultraviolet radiation. These pesky sun rays can be very harmful, commonly compromising the skin barrier and leading to “premature skin aging, wrinkles and dark spots” according to Dr Sejal Shah, one of CeraVe’s board-certified dermatologists. Look out for sunscreens with broad spectrum SPF protection, which means the product will protect you from both UVA and UVB rays. Why not give CeraVe Facial Moisturising Lotion with SPF50 a try? With its broad spectrum protection against both types of UV rays, this lightweight and fast-absorbing moisturising lotion is sure to give your skin the defence and protection it needs.

How Often Should I Use a Moisturiser with SPF?

According to Dr Daniel Sugai, another of CeraVe’s trusted dermatologists, facial moisturisers with SPF should be used every day, no matter the weather. It’s a common misconception that on cloudy days or days spent inside, sun protection isn’t needed. However, this is certainly not the case! Dr Sugai explains that “there’s still a good amount of UVA radiation that comes through clouds” and “penetrate[s] through window glass” so ensure to make sun protection a staple in your daily skincare routine. CeraVe AM Facial Moisturising Lotions with SPF30 or SPF50 makes this super easy by combining both hydration and sun protection into one simple step – what more could you want?!
