Cerave Foaming Cleanser for Normal to Oily Skin 236ml

What Is CeraVe Foaming Facial Cleanser?

The CeraVe Foaming Facial Cleanser is a dermatologist-developed daily face wash designed specifically for normal to oily skin. Unlike harsh soaps that strip the skin of its natural moisture, this foaming cleanser works to remove excess oil, dirt, and makeup residue while simultaneously supporting the skin's natural protective barrier. It achieves this balance through a carefully selected combination of Ceramides, Niacinamide, and Hyaluronic Acid — ingredients that go far beyond basic cleansing to actively care for the skin.

Available at Glowza BD, Bangladesh's trusted destination for authentic international skincare, this 236ml bottle offers an excellent entry point into the CeraVe skincare routine for those dealing with oiliness, congested pores, or combination skin concerns.

Key Ingredients and Their Benefits

Ceramides (1, 3, and 6-II)

Ceramides are lipid molecules naturally found in the skin's outermost layer. They form the structural foundation of the skin barrier, helping to lock in moisture and keep environmental irritants out. The CeraVe Foaming Cleanser contains three essential Ceramides — 1, 3, and 6-II — which work in harmony to restore and maintain this barrier during and after cleansing. Many cleansers deplete the skin's ceramide content over time, but CeraVe's patented MVE (MultiVesicular Emulsion) technology ensures that these vital lipids are replenished with each wash.

Niacinamide (Vitamin B3)

Niacinamide is a highly versatile and well-studied skincare ingredient. In the context of a cleanser formulated for oily skin, it serves multiple purposes: it helps regulate sebum production, minimises the appearance of enlarged pores, brightens uneven skin tone, and calms redness or irritation. For those living in warm, humid climates like Bangladesh, where heat-induced excess oil is a daily concern, Niacinamide is a particularly effective active ingredient to have in a morning or evening cleanser.

Hyaluronic Acid

A common misconception is that oily skin does not need hydration — in reality, dehydrated oily skin often overproduces oil as a compensatory response. Hyaluronic Acid in this cleanser ensures that the skin retains adequate moisture throughout the cleansing process, preventing the tight, dry feeling that many people experience after washing with conventional foaming cleansers.

Zinc PCA

Zinc PCA is an additional oil-control agent that complements Niacinamide in managing excess sebum. It is particularly beneficial for those prone to breakouts and visible shine across the T-zone and forehead.

How to Use CeraVe Foaming Cleanser Correctly

For best results, use the CeraVe Foaming Facial Cleanser twice daily — once in the morning and once at night before bed. Begin by wetting the face and neck with lukewarm water. Apply a small amount of the cleanser to your fingertips and work it into a gentle lather. Massage across the face using circular motions for approximately 30 to 60 seconds, paying attention to the T-zone where oil tends to concentrate. Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water and pat the skin dry with a clean towel. Follow immediately with a suitable toner, serum, or moisturiser suited to your skin type.

Why This Cleanser Is Ideal for the Bangladesh Climate

Bangladesh experiences a tropical monsoon climate with high humidity levels for much of the year. This environment tends to exacerbate oiliness, enlarged pores, and breakouts, making an effective yet gentle cleanser particularly important for daily skincare. Heavy or oil-based cleansers can feel suffocating in such conditions, while overly harsh formulas strip the skin and cause irritation. The CeraVe Foaming Cleanser strikes the ideal balance: it provides a thorough, refreshing cleanse without disturbing the skin's moisture balance, making it highly suited for daily use in tropical conditions.

You can find the full range of cleansing options at the Glowza BD Cleansers category, where both foam and gel-based formulas are available for different skin types and budgets.

Who Should Use CeraVe Foaming Facial Cleanser?

This cleanser is formulated for individuals with normal to oily skin, but its gentle, non-irritating formula also makes it a practical choice for combination skin. It is especially beneficial for those who experience:

Persistent shine or greasiness throughout the day, visible or enlarged pores, occasional breakouts or congestion, uneven skin texture due to excess oil buildup, or skin that feels heavy or dull despite regular cleansing. The non-comedogenic formulation ensures it will not clog pores, and the absence of fragrance makes it suitable for those with sensitive or reactive skin who still have oily tendencies.

CeraVe vs Other Cleansers: Why Choose This One?

The skincare market offers an overwhelming number of cleansers, from budget pharmacy options to high-end luxury brands. CeraVe occupies a unique position: it is formulated with clinically proven, dermatologist-approved ingredients, yet remains accessible in price. The brand's commitment to barrier-supporting Ceramides sets it apart from most foaming cleansers, which prioritise deep cleansing at the expense of skin health. When comparing CeraVe to popular alternatives, the key differentiators are its MVE delivery technology (which releases active ingredients over time rather than all at once), its fragrance-free commitment, and its documented safety for daily, long-term use.

Packaging and Storage

The CeraVe Foaming Cleanser 236ml comes in a clean, practical pump-dispenser bottle that ensures hygienic dispensing with each use. The pump format is especially convenient for bathroom use, reducing the risk of contamination that can occur with open-top bottles. Store the product at room temperature, away from direct sunlight. Avoid exposing the product to excessive heat, which can be relevant in Bangladesh's warmer months.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

1. Is CeraVe Foaming Cleanser suitable for sensitive skin?

Yes, the CeraVe Foaming Cleanser is fragrance-free, soap-free, and non-irritating, making it generally well-tolerated by sensitive skin. However, it is primarily formulated for normal to oily skin types. If you have dry or very sensitive skin, the CeraVe Hydrating Cleanser may be a more appropriate choice.

2. Can I use this cleanser to remove makeup?

The CeraVe Foaming Cleanser is effective at removing light to moderate makeup, daily sunscreen, and surface-level impurities. For heavy or waterproof makeup, it is recommended to use a dedicated micellar water or cleansing oil before using this cleanser as your second cleanse.

3. How many times a day should I use this cleanser?

CeraVe recommends using this foaming cleanser twice daily — in the morning and at night. Over-cleansing (more than twice daily) can disrupt the skin's natural oil balance and lead to increased dryness or reactive oiliness.

4. Will this cleanser help reduce acne or breakouts?

While the CeraVe Foaming Cleanser is not a dedicated acne treatment, its non-comedogenic formula, Niacinamide content, and deep pore-cleansing action can support clearer skin over time. For active acne, pair it with a targeted treatment product such as a salicylic acid serum or benzoyl peroxide spot treatment.

5. Is CeraVe Foaming Cleanser safe to use during pregnancy?

The ingredients in CeraVe Foaming Cleanser — Ceramides, Niacinamide, and Hyaluronic Acid — are generally considered safe for use during pregnancy. However, it is always advisable to consult your healthcare provider before introducing any new skincare products during pregnancy or breastfeeding.

6. Can this cleanser be used on the body as well as the face?

Yes, the CeraVe Foaming Cleanser is gentle enough to use on the body, particularly for areas prone to oiliness or breakouts such as the back and chest. It is especially useful as a body wash for those dealing with body acne.

7. Does this cleanser cause purging when first used?

Purging is more commonly associated with active ingredients like retinoids or AHAs. The CeraVe Foaming Cleanser does not typically cause purging. Any initial breakouts after starting a new cleanser routine are usually temporary skin adjustment responses and should subside within two to four weeks.

8. Is the CeraVe Foaming Cleanser cruelty-free?

CeraVe as a brand does sell in markets that require animal testing by law (including mainland China), so it is not considered fully cruelty-free under the most stringent definitions. Shoppers who prioritise cruelty-free status should research brands certified by organisations such as Leaping Bunny or PETA before purchasing.

9. How long will a 236ml bottle last with regular use?

With twice-daily use, one pump per wash, a 236ml bottle typically lasts approximately 2 to 3 months. This makes it a cost-effective option for a daily facial cleanser, particularly given the quality of its formulation and its barrier-supporting ingredients.

10. Where can I buy CeraVe Foaming Cleanser in Bangladesh?

You can purchase the CeraVe Foaming Facial Cleanser 236ml directly from Glowza BD, a trusted online beauty retailer based in Bangladesh.
