Q: Can this be used instead of sunscreen? In one of the answers I saw "relieves itching due to insect bites and sunburn"

submitted by watchbuyer3 - 6 months ago
  • A: Hi there! Thank you for reaching out about our Itch Relief Moisturizing Lotion. This lotion is designed to moisturize dry skin and relieve itching associated with insect bites, sunburn, poison ivy and other minor skin irritations. Our formula is designed to relieve symptoms of sunburn, and does not contain any SPF protection. For sun protection, we recommend trying our Hydrating Sheer Sunscreen Broad Spectrum SPF 30, which combines mineral and chemical sun filters to help effectively reflect and absorb the sun's damaging rays. We hope this is helpful!

CeraVe is a brand that's nothing flashy. It doesn't look pretty or exciting or smell good, but it gets the job done. You'll notice in just a few days your skin does look better. It can be a little greasy feeling. But if you're looking to moisturize and heal your skin without all the fluff, then this might be a good go-to.

As a dermatology PA, I have found CeraVe's Itch Relief Moisturizing Cream with pramoxine hydrochloride to be an effective option for patients seeking relief from itching associated with dry skin, insect bites, and minor skin irritations. The 1% pramoxine hydrochloride acts as a local anesthetic, providing rapid relief by inhibiting the transmission of nerve impulses responsible for itch sensations. In my experience, patients report that the cream provides relief within minutes, with effects lasting several hours. The inclusion of ceramides helps restore and maintain the skin's natural barrier, which is beneficial for overall skin health. Some patients have noted a slight stickiness upon application, which may be a minor inconvenience. Additionally, while the cream is generally well-tolerated, individuals with sensitive skin should perform a patch test before widespread use to ensure compatibility. While I haven't seen a rash specific to the cream, it is always a possibility. Overall, CeraVe's Itch Relief Moisturizing Cream with pramoxine hydrochloride is a valuable addition to over-the-counter options for managing pruritus, offering both rapid and lasting relief, while avoiding side effects of topical steroid use.

Bozley - 3 months ago, Verified purchaser
This lotion replaced my itching skin as soon as I Applied it with skin that felt like if was on Fire. My skin immediately turned bright red and swollen. I have never had a result like this with any other product or brand. I quickly applied cool shower water to my legs and lower body. Since this was late Friday evening, I tried calling the customer service number printed on the CereVe bottle. Closed, call back during regular business hours. I called back today Monday and spoke to an agent who told me that all agents who could help me were busy. They would return my call in 24 - 48 hours. Before I called I noticed the skin on my legs was now shiny, scaled and peeling. I need help and direction NOW, not tomorrow etc. VERY POOR Customer service!! (I have already contacted my Primary Physician and sent photos.)

Hello awohl! We're sorry to hear our CeraVe Itch Relief Moisturizing Lotion didn't provide the relief you were hoping for. While it's designed to hydrate and soothe itchy skin, individual results can vary. If you're still experiencing itchiness, we recommend consulting with a dermatologist to identify the underlying cause and determine the best course of treatment. They can offer personalized recommendations and may suggest a different product or approach to address your specific needs.

My husband had been struggling with painful itchy patches of eczema that made both his feet and ankles raw for more than 10 years. He tried so many cream and prescription topical treatments to no avail. I brought this home and it was like magic, his skin stopped itching and started to heal. He's got completely clear skin for the first time in years. I'm so impressed! Also helped with the itch when my son had an allergic reaction. It's the best.

This it relief, moisturizing and cream is the perfect texture to lather up your skin in the dry winter temps. It has an instantly soothing effect and is steroid free. It provides relief of itchy, dry skin within minutes and is developed by Dermatologist. I use this on my son‘s highly sensitive and eczema, prone skin all year long and it definitely helps with his itch and eczema uncomfortableness.

This is an amazing itch relief lotion. I had a terrible reaction to a medication and this was the only lotion that gave me any relief. It was better than the prescription cream they scent me home with. It’s very thin non greasy lotion that spreads evenly and gives quick relief from itch. I love that it comes in a pump bottle, that makes it easier to use. I would recommend this to everyone just to have in case you ever need it

I picked up some samples from my allergist and it helped so much with my hands and elbows, my son has much worse eczema though! I wish I had learned about this sooner because he gets patches on his face and chin, i tried so many prescriptions for my son!! This lotion relieves his dry patches quickly, i know it brings him a great deal of discomfort but this product is a life saver.

I have mild eczema and I thought this would prevent me from scratching as often, but it doesn’t. So, I had to buy cortisone cream, which was a bummer but I still use it after showers. I would say it is moisturizing and it feels great on my skin. The cap locks when you turn it, which I really like in case I pack it for traveling. There’s a subtle lotion smell, but it doesn’t make me sensitive.
