Excess oil and shine1 expert

"I really really like these. These work really well for my hair. The shampoo is very mild. It's very gentle and it does not leave any kind of residue behind. It leaves the hair soft, manageable. It helps that it has niacinamide in the formula and the ceramides for scalp moisturization purposes. The conditioner works well for improving manageability, shine, reducing static, all of those things that the strands need after shampooing. The conditioner nicely addresses. I've repurchased this."

I Finished A TON Of Skincare & Hair Care | 2025 Empties

"Zero complaints whatsoever. I was skeptical going in because they're great with skincare, but are you going to get a hair care? They are a L'Oreal brand and I like the clarifying shampoo. L'Oreal does good shampoo. So I was like, maybe they can deliver something good. And boy, did they ever. Keep in mind, I have super fine hair. Shampoos that bill themselves as hydrating sometimes can be a residue nightmare. Not the case. Not the case."

"The shampoo and the conditioner are wonderful. They do the job. They're effective. They don't leave a residue behind, but they're kind of expensive. They're like $20 a piece."

*NEW* CeraVe Haircare Products Review

"They also came out with just a regular old non anti-dandruff shampoo and conditioner, amazing, amazing for me. They perform very similar, the shampoo and the conditioner perform pretty much identically to the zinc pyrithione shampoo and conditioner, only without the zinc pyrithione. While it's not an anti-dandruff shampoo, consistent scalp cleansing is a mainstay in reducing flare-ups and symptoms of dandruff and reducing the burden of malassezia yeast."

"The shampoos and the conditioners from CeraVe are wonderful, wonderful, wonderful. The hydrating shampoo and conditioner is just a basic daily shampoo and conditioner, especially suitable for people who have maybe more of a drier scalp, more of a drier hair type. And it does have niacinamide in it, but that's good for reducing inflammation in the scalp. I love these. I just finished like my second bottle of the hydrating shampoo. I love them because they're fragrance-free."

"The [CeraVe] ones are fragrance-free and significantly more affordable. They do perform well at cleansing the scalp and reducing the charge on the hair to make the hair strands manageable."

These Products Transformed My Hair Overnight

"Prior to the Wella shampoo, I was sailing along with great smooth manageable hair in the wake of using the CeraVe hydrating shampoos and conditioners. [...] My hair was super on point. Those shampoos were really beneficial for my hair texture, feel, and manageability, and made my hair very soft and smooth, and they're much less expensive than these May Love products."

"Gentle formulations that I find to be more conditioning on the scalp and less stripping of scalp's natural sebum. This contains niacinamide as well as panthenol and hyaluronic acid. This is also fragrance free, so another great option not only for daily use for those with oily scalp but also if you have eczema and dry scalp. This would be one that I really recommend."
