Ingredients Explained
These ingredients are found in both products.
Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount.
Water. It's the most common cosmetic ingredient of all. You'll usually see it at the top of ingredient lists, meaning that it makes up the largest part of the product.
So why is it so popular? Water most often acts as a solvent - this means that it helps dissolve other ingredients into the formulation.
You'll also recognize water as that liquid we all need to stay alive. If you see this, drink a glass of water. Stay hydrated!
Learn more about WaterSodium Hydroxide is also known as lye or caustic soda. It is used to adjust the pH of products; many ingredients require a specific pH to be effective.
In small amounts, sodium hydroxide is considered safe to use. However, large amounts may cause chemical burns due to its high alkaline.
Your skin has a natural pH and acid mantle. This acid mantle helps prevent harmful bacteria from breaking through. The acid mantle also helps keep your skin hydrated.
"Alkaline" refers to a high pH level. A low pH level would be considered acidic.

CeraVe Oil Control Moisturizing Gel-Cream 28 ingredients
This is the first moisturizer that didn’t break me out and actually felt light and cooling on my skin without feeling heavy not greasing my skin in the morning.
The only frustrating downside is that it pills sooo much to the point where even dabbed on the skin, applied on damp skin or just tapping in doesn’t work, let alone layering it with other products.
Still on the hunt for a good Show more
It has a similar texture to the standard version but it definitely helped to reduce the shine on my face without fully mattifying it, all while keeping my skin moisturized. Unfortunately, I think it caused breakouts for me - I tried using it twice a day, then cut back to just mornings but the pimples kept appearing. I eventually had to stop using it altogether

The first time I used it was on August 28, and now it's the best thing I have. It removed my acne from my face. I use it daily during the daytime and nighttime. My skin is combination to normal, and it doesn't dry out my skin 10/10
For me, it was a gentle cleanser that felt it didn’t cleanse my skin enough, also it didn’t work with My La roche-posay effaclar matt moisturizer (I’ve been using almost a year) either made my skin feel more dry or oily.
