The CeraVe Foaming Face Wash + Daily Moisturizing Lotion Bundle is a highly popular, dermatologist-recommended skincare duo designed to cover the two most essential steps of a daily routine: cleansing and hydrating.
The "120 oz" title in some listings is actually a minor typo for 12 oz, referring to the standard, full-sized 12 fl. oz. (355 mL) bottle of the Foaming Facial Cleanser that serves as the anchor of the kit. Depending on the specific retailer box edition, it is bundled with a matching companion moisturizer (typically a 12 oz body and face lotion, or a set of smaller AM/PM face lotions).
Here is a breakdown of the two core products included in this bundle and how they work together:
1. CeraVe Foaming Facial Cleanser (12 fl. oz.)
This is a gel-based, non-drying cleanser formulated specifically for normal to oily skin.
- How it Works: It transforms into a soft, lightweight foam that deeply washes away excess oil, daily dirt, sebum, and makeup.
- Key Ingredients:
- 3 Essential Ceramides (1, 3, 6-II): CeraVe’s signature ingredient that helps rebuild and maintain the skin’s natural protective barrier so moisture doesn't escape.
- Hyaluronic Acid: Attracts hydration to the skin's surface, ensuring your face feels refreshed rather than tight, stripped, or dry after washing.
- Niacinamide (Vitamin B3): Helps calm inflammation, soothe redness, and balance oil production throughout the day.
2. CeraVe Daily Moisturizing Lotion
This is a lightweight, oil-free moisturizer designed to lock in hydration without feeling heavy or greasy.
- How it Works: It uses a specialized MVE (Multivesicular Emulsion) technology, which slowly releases moisturizing ingredients over a 24-hour period for all-day hydration.
- Key Ingredients: Packed with the same 3 essential ceramides and hyaluronic acid to repair the skin barrier.
- Skin Suitability: It carries the National Eczema Association Seal of Acceptance, making it exceptionally safe for sensitive, allergy-tested, or acne-prone skin.
Routine Vibe & Shared Benefits
- Fragrance-Free & Paraben-Free: Both formulas are entirely unscented and non-irritating, meaning they won't trigger fragrance-related breakouts or contact dermatitis.
- Non-Comedogenic: Neither product will clog your pores, making the duo excellent for managing oiliness and preventing blemishes.
- The Perfect Balance: Oily skin types often make the mistake of over-stripping their skin with harsh washes, which actually causes the skin to overproduce more oil. This bundle breaks that cycle by thoroughly removing surface shine with the foaming wash, then immediately restoring a healthy moisture balance with the oil-free lotion.
