Ceramides are naturally-occuring lipids in the skin that help support its ability to hold moisture. Studies have shown that a depletion in natural ceramide levels may be associated with dry, sensitive, and reactive skin.

If you have active acne, you may be compromising your skin’s natural defenses with the use of acne medications such as Accutane, benzoyl peroxide, salicylic acid, and glycolic acid. Although these medicines work extremely well, they may leave your skin dry, un-moisturized, and sensitized.

Elevase Moisture Booster is an ideal ceramide cream that helps support your skin’s natural moisture barrier function. With its powerful combination of opti-ceramides, Elevase is a light and powerful moisturizer that is ideal for dry skin associated with acne treatments.

WHAT WE LIKE: Elevase is a lightweight, refreshing moisturizer that does not clog your pores; essential characteristics for any moisturizer touted for acne-prone skin. Kareskin recommends at least twice daily application of Elevase on the skin; and suggests using the cream throughout the day if your skin is sensitized by acne treatments.

VERDICT: Moisturizing options for acne-prone skin are limited because many of the oil-based moisturizing creams can further clog your pores and cause acne. Elevase has a lightweight formula that feels refreshing on the skin. We found the product to be an essential addition to any moisturizing skin regimen.
