Hey guys and welcome to todays video where we are sharing some amazing dupes to Cerave products.. I am not suggesting that everyone needs to stop using Cerave, you should make your own mind up on that based on what is right for your skin and wallet, but should you wish to move away from the brand then I hope these cruelty free dupes will help you make that decision. I would love to know your thoughts on Cerave so please leave them in the comments below. Sending lots of love xxx

I guess the reason people love cerave over ceramedix is that cerave is non comodegenic . Their body moisturizers can also be used on the face for those people with acne prone skin. But ceramedix I love love on the body

Thank you so much, I'm tired of people continually raving about Cerave. It's 2021. We don't need to test on animals. I also appreciate this even more because I'm in the UK and the products you recommend are actually available!

I used to use CeraPhil a lot and soemtimes CeraVe, and when I learned that they weren't cruelty-free, I went ballistic. I told my mom to stop buying them, but she said, "Meh". And when I told my brother about it, he just went on about a whole speech on "how we need animals to be tested so we know it's safe" and "would you rather have humans be tested on?". It disgusts me. Thank you for this video. I've lived my life for song long thinking that these products were safe and cruelty-free.

I think if people are searching for a gentle and hydrating cleanser, the Krave beauty Matcha Hemp Hydrating Cleanser is phenomenal!

About a year ago when I was just starting to get back into skincare, I went for Cerave cleansers and moisturizers. They are super cheap here in the US and are literally available everywhere--drugstores, supermarkets, Target, Walmart, etc. They are very basic but seemed adequate. However after branching out into other products (and learning about the company's dodgy stance on the cruelty free aspect) I realized there are a lot of options that are much better. For my ceramide hit, I use the Krave Great Barrier Relief. It's pricey but it lasts a long time and my skin LOVES it. So smooth and soothing and leaves my skin feeling hydrated and soft.

Love it. I switched my Cerave PM Moisturizing Lotion (wanted the niacinamide for my redness) for Rosacare and have been so much happier with the redness calming effects of the licorice in RC. I hope your holidays were very merry, my friend and cheers to an amazing new year!

I enjoy Cerave quite a bit since it was kind of "introductory" for me on my journey of loving skin care? I honestly really love their cream-to-foam cleanser, their SA cleanser, and their moisturizing cream. However, I do want to look at other options (especially cruelty free options) now that my skincare collection has expanded. Really have been interested in the cocokind matcha moisturizer but am looking at a couple options before committing. Thanks for all the good dupes! ✨✨✨

THANK YOU for featuring Ceramedx! I have been using the lotion as my day and night moisturizer. I find it at my local grocery store. It's a few dollars more, but not enough to be a deal breaker. As I run out of my CeraVe, I'm replacing it with Ceramedx.

Hi there! I'm glad I found your channel recently. You post great content and I love your energy! I wanted to ask; have you ever tried the Vanicream Gentle Facial Cleanser? It is vegan and cruelty free and I have found it could also be an alternative to CeraVe. I'm vegan and would love cruelty free options as well. Difficult task because I have extremely sensitive skin and many V/CF products contain things that irritate my skin. Ceramedex is awesome as well or maybe even Hempz (the fragrance free one)

Hey Rob! Great video and some of those dupes look very promising. I loathe the Cerave cleansers -- they all feel very stripping and harsh on my skin. However, the PM lotion is like an all time favourite 😁 I can't believe you don't like it, but like you said everything won't work for everyone even when we have similar skin types. It's funny because I love it precisely because I don't find it to be greasy and it works well as just a basic moisturizer that I can count on to not conflict with my retinol or leave my skin feeling bogged down. I also love the texture and finish. But ok, you hate it so we agree to disagree 😊 Hope you're having a lovely weekend.

Nothing is cruelty free and all is. EU banned animal testing some years ago and since most big brands want to sell there they must comply. However all ingredients were at some point tested on animals in the past. The "cruelty free" claim is bogus. Btw loreal started to replace animal in vivo testing with in vitro long ago and has invested a lot of r&d in those in vitro techniques. Check theecowell in ig.

Hello! You mentioned to just add the amino acids to a basic moisturizer for a good alternative, but what came to mind is the fact that most of us watching do t have basic moisturizers, as we watch skincare tutorials to find something better than basic, so I found myself scratching my head. I don’t think I have or know of good one! 😳 Would you recommend a basic, affordable moisturizer that would be a good possible base to add serums to? I have combination skin, 49 YO and the 10% lactic acid from The Ordinary barely itched for 5 minutes if that, so I apparently have skin as strong as yours! going to get the high % AHA this week Glad I found you.

Heyaa rob Sorry to say but cervea is only the brand that did not irritates. I tried aveeno, dermol and simple brand all the good none fragrances brand and it all made me itch and irritated me a lot so I thought to try cerave and it worked did not irritate me. But yes am thinking to go and look for an cutlery free product which is good for dry and super sensitive skin. Plus I have really irritated skin which sometime itch and gets very flakey plus I have kp on my arms and legs and I tried cervea with the salicylic acid in but it itched me when I put it on I can’t use anything with salicylic acid in.. just my skin is super super irritated when I put anything on it so I have to be careful that’s why am abit skeptical to try anything else apart from cervea because my skin is very sensitive. Do u recommend anything. Forget to say I have rosacea on my cheeks which are always red lol.

My HG from cerave is their SA cleanser, cerave PM lotion, eye cream and light weight spf 30. I’ve tried finding dupes but still can’t replace them after several years. The SA cleanser helps to gently exfoliate my skin. I’ve tried other SA cleansers and they burned my skin. The cerave PM lotion had the perfect consistency for under makeup. I’ve recently started using la roche-possum double repair moisturizer at night because it’s a bit thicker. I haven’t tried it under makeup yet. The eye cream sits well under makeup too and doesn’t give me milia. The light weight spf also sits well with make up and he allowed me to be consistent with my spf. I do occasionally try new products to see if I can replace cerave but just haven’t been able to replace these four.

Hi Rob, I think we need to know more about European brands here in US. Thank you for your video! Have you ever tried Ceramedx cleanser?

Greay video!!!! Honestly Cerave broke me out a little.. sometimes i dont understand the hype, i guess it worked for other people In my country theres only La roche posay and Inkey list.. so im using mainly these brands❤🥰and im perfectly satisfied

Cicaplast Baum from La Roche Posay is a great moisturizer. Rob recommended it in a video a while back and I've had a great experience soothing and moisturizing my skin while on adapalene.

@@annamelai8356 my skin is sensitive, combination, acne prone and I haven't had any irritation. I usually use it at night as it takes a little longer to absorb. I love that it has ceramides and it really helps soothe my skin. I'd recommend it.

Rob, I hope that we can still be friends because I really do enjoy Cerave 😆 I’ve used it way before the Tik Tok hype. It just works for my skin. The moisturizing cream just works well on my combo dehydrated skin. It’s not heavy, sinks in and leaves my face semi matte. I enjoy the PM lotion for the summer. I rotate in different cleansers but I do always have a bottle of the foaming and hydrating cleanser. That being said, I do use and try different brands. I love skincare too much to only use one brand haha. I want to try the Inkey List ceramide cream but not sure it’s available here. Happy New Year 🥳

I am a firm believer in using what works for you and so I would never judge anyone for sticking with Cerave.. Happy New Year to you and all your family hun, I hope 2021 has got off to a good start for you.. xxxx

This is a great video!! I did purchase also some cleansers and the Cerave cream, just ot try and I wasn´t impressed at all!!! - The cream wasn´t hydrating or moisturising enough. I ended up mixing it with argan and apricot kernel oil ot use it on my body. - The Hydrating cleanser is just so itchy and almost burns my skin. I had to give it away. - The Foaming cleanser is ok but just that. I will probably use it on my body - The SA cleanser is actually quite good. I use it a couple times a week on my t-zone and its fine. Actually much better than the Inkey Lists as it doesn´t dry my skin of.

Wanted to ask where can I fit copper peptides if I'm using ordinary vit c map in morning and tretonoin nightime , just couldn't think what they dont work withxx

Do you think byoma is a good dupe to the cerave pm moisturiser?

I don't use the Cerave cleanser anymore. I love the Geek & Gorgeous one. i have also found the COSRX ceramide cream which is fantasic.

Every time I go to the store, literally any store, that carries CeraVe there's always just a handful of products left on the shelf. They're almost always sold out of everything. Admittedly, when I tried some of their products my skin was not a fan. While I love that there's lots of the barrier repair ingredients in there they just use way to much/too heavy occlusives for my skin. I'm admittedly still trying to find products that are repairing/healing without aggravating my acne and easily clogged pores.

i love this video, thanks for the recomendations 💙💙💙 new subby here 😍

I can get the Cerave hydrating cleanser for about £10 here in the UK. PC equivalent is £22!

Thank you for this video. In this day and age I don't know why all skin care isn't cruelty free. We don't need to torture animals to find out if a chemical will cause damage.

For anyone searching for a replacement of the Cerave lotions I would suggest trying the Bonajour Green Tea Water Bomb cream. It has a similar base to Cerave but uses a teensy amount of plant oil in place of silicone (takes only a moment longer to absorb and leaves a smooth, non greasy finish) and has the addition of multiple peptides and green tea. Very soothing for sensitive skin, lightweight, fragrance free. A nice one for face and body. Decent sized tube for the $ too and they are a cruelty free brand.

You know, old fashioned does not mean bad. Newer is not always better. Glycerin has also been around for awhile and it is a wonderful ingredient. I still love petroleum jelly, it is the only thing that works on my chapped lips.

Hi Rob cereve doesn't really work for me tbh. The facial lotion and moisturising lotion in the pump bottle are too lightweight and even the cream in the jar isn't enough for my super dry skin. The hydrating cleanser is fine, but not something I'm in love with (used as a morning or second cleanse after a oil/balm). An option I like better is the illiyoon ceramide ato cream (available from stylevana or yesstyle), which when ordered from Asian sites is around £13 for 150mls. The pyunkang yul ato cream is also a good option and a similar price - it is cruelty free. They're a better texture, contain ceramides/cholesterol/fatty acids and are more hydrating in my opinion. The LRP toleraine hydrating cleanser works very similarly to the cereve hydrating cleanser, but it's a better texture though unfortunately not CF. The ceremedx mentioned is easily available in the US, but not here in the UK and the other option is at least double the price at £31 for 50mls. I may try the Inkey list ceramide night treatment as a day cream - I know it won't be enough for my severe dryness overnight. I'm currently using the FAB ultra repair cream as a daycream and the Altruist urea cream at night. I need something really rich in the Scottish Winter and most face creams just don't deliver enough moisture and occlusion for me overnight. This is why I often use body creams on face/neck/chest overnight and use serums etc for active ingredients and barrier supportive ingredients. I'm currently using the Superdrug pure serum for my ceramide hit at night - it's super affordable. It may be a good option under a basic moisturiser for ceramides and very inexpensive, even with the two layers. It may work really well alone for an oily skin, or under sunscreen. Best wishes.
