CeraVe Healing Ointment 85g

CeraVe Healing Ointment 85g is an intensely moisturizing protective ointment designed to help protect, soothe and hydrate dry, cracked and chafed skin.

Its petrolatum-based formula creates a protective layer over the skin to help lock in moisture, while three essential ceramides and hyaluronic acid support the skin’s moisture barrier. CeraVe describes the formula as non-comedogenic and suitable for all skin types.

The ointment is especially useful for areas that become extremely dry or rough, including dry hands, elbows, knees, heels, lips and other areas that need extra moisture protection.

It can also be incorporated into a skincare routine as the final occlusive step when you want to help prevent moisture loss.
