Developed with dermatologists, CeraVe offers a complete line of skincare & haircare products that contain three essential ceramides enhanced with a revolutionary delivery system to help restore the skin & scalp's natural protective barrier.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is CeraVe Baby Wash and Shampoo safe enough to use every day on my infant or toddler?
Yes. CeraVe Baby Wash & Shampoo is developed by pediatric dermatologists and is gentle enough for daily use on infants and toddlers, including during routine nursery bath time and after messy play sessions.
Will this 2-in-1 wash and shampoo sting my baby's eyes during hair rinsing?
No. The formula is tear-free, which means it is designed not to sting or irritate eyes during rinsing, helping reduce baby crying and stress during shampoo time in the nursery or family bathroom.
Is the CeraVe Baby Wash formula free from the ingredients I keep reading about in parenting forums?
Yes. It is fragrance-free, paraben-free, dye-free, phthalate-free, and sulfate-free, so it avoids the most common irritants parents of sensitive or eczema-prone children look to avoid.
Can this baby wash help with my toddler's eczema-prone or sensitive skin?
Yes. CeraVe Baby Wash & Shampoo carries the National Eczema Association Seal of Acceptance and contains 3 Essential Ceramides, Hyaluronic Acid, and Vitamin E to support the skin's natural moisture barrier while cleansing.
Does this wash work as both a body wash and a shampoo so I only need one bottle in the changing area?
Yes. It is a true 2-in-1 formula that gently cleanses both hair and skin in one step, which means fewer bottles to store in your nursery, kids' bathroom, or travel bath kit.
Which size is best for a family with one baby versus a household with multiple kids in the bath?
The 8 oz size works well for trial use, travel, or overnight bags, while the 16 oz size is the better value for daily nursery bathing in a household with one or more children.
Should I choose the 8 oz or 16 oz bottle for everyday use in my child's nursery?
For everyday nursery use, the 16 oz is typically more economical and reduces how often you need to restock. The 8 oz is ideal as a backup bottle for the diaper bag, grandparents' house, or travel bath kit.
At what age can I start using CeraVe Baby Wash on my child?
CeraVe Baby Wash & Shampoo is formulated for babies and is generally suitable from infancy through the toddler years, making it a long-lasting product through the early childhood bathing stage.
How does CeraVe Baby Wash compare to regular Johnson & Johnson or store-brand baby washes?
Unlike many standard baby washes, CeraVe Baby is fragrance-free, paraben-free, dye-free, phthalate-free, sulfate-free, and developed by pediatric dermatologists with ceramides to support the skin barrier rather than just cleanse.
Is this baby wash better than using a separate baby soap and baby shampoo?
For most families, yes. The 2-in-1 formula cleanses hair and body in a single step, which shortens bath time, reduces the number of products in the nursery, and still rinses clean without stripping moisture.
Is CeraVe Baby Wash gentler than adult body wash if my child sometimes borrows my products?
Yes. CeraVe Baby is specifically formulated for baby skin, free from fragrance, sulfates, dyes, parabens, and phthalates, and includes ceramides that adult body washes typically do not contain.
My child has eczema. Will this wash make their flare-ups worse?
CeraVe Baby Wash & Shampoo is accepted by the National Eczema Association and is designed for eczema-prone skin. It cleanses without fragrance, sulfates, or harsh surfactants, and adds ceramides to help support the skin barrier during flare-prone periods.
Is this product pediatrician-recommended for everyday nursery use?
Yes. CeraVe Baby Wash is developed with pediatric dermatologists and is widely recommended by pediatricians for daily bathing of infants and toddlers, including those with sensitive skin.
How do I use CeraVe Baby Wash and Shampoo during bath time?
Wet your baby's hair and skin with warm water, apply a small amount of CeraVe Baby Wash to your hand or a washcloth, gently massage into hair and body, rinse thoroughly, and pat skin dry. Follow with a ceramide baby moisturizer within three minutes for best results.
How much CeraVe Baby Wash should I use per bath?
A small coin-sized amount is enough to cleanse both hair and body thanks to the 2-in-1 formula. You can use a bit more for toddlers with longer or thicker hair if needed.
Do I need to use a separate conditioner after CeraVe Baby Wash?
No. The gentle, tear-free 2-in-1 formula is designed to cleanse fine baby and toddler hair without leaving it tangled or stripped, so most families do not need a separate conditioner. If hair is extra long or curly, a leave-in ceramide detangler can be used sparingly.
Is CeraVe Baby Wash compatible with CeraVe Baby Lotion and other CeraVe Baby products?
Yes. CeraVe Baby Wash is designed to work alongside the CeraVe Baby Lotion and Moisturizing Cream, which both contain ceramides, so you can build a complete, barrier-supporting routine for bath time and post-bath care.
Is this baby wash compatible with eczema cream or prescription ointments?
Yes. CeraVe Baby Wash is generally compatible with over-the-counter eczema creams and prescription ointments. Use the wash first, rinse, pat dry, and then apply the treatment or barrier cream as directed by your pediatrician or dermatologist.
What comes in the box when I order CeraVe Baby Wash?
Your order includes one bottle of CeraVe Baby Wash & Shampoo in the size you selected (8 oz or 16 oz), with a flip-top cap for easy one-handed use during bath time. No additional accessories or tools are included or required.
Is CeraVe Baby Wash safe if it gets into my baby's mouth or eyes?
The formula is tear-free and fragrance-free, designed not to sting eyes, and is not intended to be ingested. As with any cleanser, rinse thoroughly with water if it enters the eyes, and keep the bottle out of reach of children when not in use.
How should I store CeraVe Baby Wash to keep it fresh and effective?
Store the bottle at room temperature, keep the cap closed when not in use, and avoid leaving it in direct sunlight or in a very hot or cold environment. There is no special refrigeration required.
What is the difference between a baby wash and a regular body wash?
Baby washes like CeraVe Baby are formulated with milder surfactant systems, are typically fragrance-free, and avoid harsh ingredients like sulfates, parabens, dyes, and phthalates. They are also often tested for tear-free use and may include skin-barrier-supporting ingredients like ceramides that regular body washes do not contain.
