If you've ever sat in front of your laptop, panic-Googling "how to fix skin barrier" at 2 a.m. after trying one DIY TikTok skincare hack too many, then you might have already come across the cult-favorite brand CeraVe. Beauty girlies rave about it for its gentle, fragrance-free formulations that help repair the skin barrier and can be used for skin problems like eczema or acne. However, it hasn't been available locally, so we always had to get our CeraVe fix either from balikbayan boxes or from sketchy resellers.
Well, we have good news for all the skincare junkies out there: CeraVe has finally—and officially!—arrived in the Philippines. Say goodbye to ordering via Shopee and Lazada and risking getting fake products from resellers. *tears of joy*
Why does everyone (and their derma) rave about CeraVe?
CeraVe's whole schtick is that their products are simple, fuss-free, and no B.S. Developed with dermatologists, their cleansers and moisturizers focus on repairing your skin barrier (a.k.a. the outermost layer of your skin responsible for protecting your skin from external irritants that cause skin problems).
Their products are loaded with ceramides, which are lipids or oils that are naturally found in the skin and are v important for retaining moisture and supporting the skin barrier. They also contain MVE Technology that helps provide long-lasting hydration, thanks to its time-released spheres that provide multiple phases of moisturization, allowing essential ingredients to be released into the skin slowly.
Where can I buy official CeraVe products?
You can buy CeraVe products online in their official Shopee store. If you prefer to shop offline, you can also check them out in Watsons, SM Beauty, LOOK, Mercury Drug, and Southstar Drug.
P.S. CeraVe will also be opening pop-up stores nationwide, including LOOK SM Aura and SM Mall of Asia, Watsons Mall of Asia, SM Megamall, and more!
