A weightless hyaluronic gel moisturizer that hydrates without heaviness
CeraVe Hyaluronic Acid Hydrating Aqua-Gel is a lightweight gel moisturizer for all skin types, including combination and oily skin that dislikes creams. It pairs hyaluronic acid, which draws water into the skin, with CeraVe’s three essential ceramides (NP, AP and EOP) and cholesterol to support the skin barrier. Niacinamide helps soothe and even the complexion, leaving skin fresh, bouncy and comfortable.
The texture
A fresh, water-gel texture that spreads like a serum and absorbs in seconds, with no greasy film. It sits well under sunscreen and make-up.
Who it suits
- All skin types, especially combination and oily skin
- Dehydrated skin that feels tight but shines easily
- Hot, humid weather when creams feel too heavy
- Anyone new to a simple, barrier-friendly routine
Worth knowing before you buy: It has no added fragrance, but it is light by design: very dry skin may need a richer cream on top in winter, such as the CeraVe Moisturizing Cream.
How long one jar lasts
Used morning and evening on face and neck, the 48ml lasts about 6 to 7 weeks.
