What the gurus are saying

Unanimous yay from 2 reviewers. Darnell Cox | 50+ Healthy Aging Expert and Dr Dray both rate it highly. Top take: "This CeraVe SA cream, that's salicylic acid. So that for rough and bumpy skin, even if your skin is not rough and bumpy, what do you think this is going to do to it? It's going to exfoliate, right?", Darnell Cox | 50+ Healthy Aging Expert.

"This CeraVe SA cream, that's salicylic acid. So that for rough and bumpy skin, even if your skin is not rough and bumpy, what do you think this is going to do to it? It's going to exfoliate, right? It's going to help with that cell turnover. It's going to create younger functioning skin. You can get this at like CVS or Raidate or something. So SA cream is salicylic acid cream. This is really something that I would say this has an active ingredient."

"For those of you who like the CeraVe SA creams, they're a great option for rough and bumpy skin. Although if you have KP, technically alpha hydroxy acids are better on paper, some people just find that salicylic acid helps their KP more than alpha hydroxy acid does."

SIGNS OF EXTREME DRY SKIN // ICHTHYOSIS VULGARIS @DrDrayzday
"CeraVe SA Cream contains salicylic acid, a keratolytic ingredient that helps with corneocyte disaggregation in the upper portion of the stratum corneum, which makes it helpful for ichthyosis vulgaris."
