The SA Smoothing Cream gently exfoliates bumps and dry patches without compromising the skin's natural barrier. Developed with dermatologists, the CeraVe SA Smoothing Cream also contains hydrating hyaluronic acid and three essential ceramides.This smoothing cream targets dry and rough skin, and is also suitable for Keratosis Pillaris (chicken skin), a condition that results in red bumps on the face and body, usually on the upper arms and thighs. Dead cells build up on the skin surface and create clogged pores and dry patches. The most common types of chemical exfoliates to remove bump skin and Keratosis Pillaris are Beta Hydroxy Acids (BHAs) and Alpha Hydroxy Acids (AHAs). The CeraVe SA Smoothing Cream contains both salicylic acid which is a BHA, and also Lactic Acid which is an AHA. Additionally the CeraVe SA Smoothing Cream contains Urea which also exfoliates and stimulates cell renewal. This exfoliating cream provides skin smoothing properties.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • In which cases is CeraVe's SA Anti-Roughness Cream especially recommended?

    CeraVe's SA Anti-Roughness Cream is specially indicated for dry, rough skin with an irregular texture, including areas prone to small bumps or roughness on the arms, thighs, or buttocks. It is commonly used in routines aimed at visibly improving skin softness without compromising hydration. For a more comprehensive approach, it can be combined with other CeraVe body hydration products to adapt the routine to the specific needs of different areas of the body.

  • How does it act on the skin to reduce roughness and improve its texture?

    This cream incorporates salicylic acid, a chemical exfoliant that helps remove dead cells accumulated on the surface of the skin to promote progressive renewal. At the same time, essential ceramides help restore the skin barrier and prevent dehydration. This combination gradually improves skin texture, leaving it smoother and more even without aggressive exfoliation. To boost results, it can be integrated with suitable CeraVe cleansers.

  • Is it suitable for daily use or should it be applied on a one-off basis?

    The SA Anti-Roughness Cream is formulated for daily use to allow for continuous improvement in skin texture. Its exfoliating action is progressive and gentle, making it suitable for regular application without harming the skin. For more pronounced roughness, consistent use is key to achieving visible results. Afterward, it can be maintained as part of your routine to prevent the return of skin irregularities or alternated with other CeraVe moisturizers based on your skin's evolving needs.

  • Can it be used on different areas of the body or only on specific areas?

    This cream is designed for use across various areas of the body where skin has an irregular texture, and is especially effective on the arms, legs, and buttocks. However, it is recommended to avoid applying it to sensitive or irritated areas. Its versatility allows it to fit into your body care routine, where it can be combined with targeted products—such as a hand repair cream—for more localized care.

  • What makes it different from a conventional moisturizer?

    Unlike a traditional moisturizer, the SA Anti-Roughness Cream not only provides deep hydration but also promotes skin renewal thanks to its salicylic acid content. This makes it more effective at treating textural issues like rough skin or small bumps. Its balanced formula combines gentle exfoliation with barrier repair for a more complete treatment.
