  • Safe for Baby
My poor baby. Mommy & Daddy both have eczema, so naturally my baby has it too! We have been seen multiple times by her pediatrician and her Dr. recommended 1% OTC hydrocortisone. I did some research and felt most comfortable using this product because it’s not 100% steroid. It has other calming ingredients in it to help nourish the skin. The product is also fragrance free which is great so it won’t irritate my baby’s delicate skin. The consistency is like a cream, not too thick so it’s not hard to rub into the skin and not too thin where it wouldn’t feel like it’s not doing much. We’ve used the product whenever she has flare ups. When we do use the cream we typically use it twice a day for 14 days if needed, just like any other steroid cream. Her eczema flare ups usually calm down within a few days and her skin is also moisturized after using the cream. The tube is a bit small so I feel that the product is a bit on the more expensive side, but I’ll still keep buying this product because I know it’s safe and it works. ... show more

  • my ocd hands’ emotional support cream 🧴
listen… i got this because my contamination ocd has my hands in shambles. between constant washing and sanitizing, my skin straight up revolted. hives, itching, redness, the whole mess. i was switching back and forth all day between this and calamine cream just trying to survive, but the problem with hydrocortisone is you can only use it 3–4 times a day, and the hand washing means half the time i’d wash it right off. still, when it’s on, it works. effectiveness-wise, this cream really is like waving a white flag at your skin. the hydrocortisone kicks in quick to calm the itch, and the cerave base makes it actually feel nourishing instead of harsh. texture is smooth, not greasy, and spreads easily without leaving that gross film. it absorbs fast, so you’re not stuck flapping your hands in the air waiting to touch things. quality is solid cerave. no weird burning, no extra irritation, just dependable relief. thickness is just right: not watery, not paste-y, just that perfect middle ground that feels lightweight but still protective. scent-wise, it doesn’t have one. value for money is decent. the tube is small and i go through it quick, but a little does spread surprisingly far. i honestly wish they made a jumbo version because if you’re dealing with eczema, hives, or ocd hand-washing chaos like me, you’re going to want this on standby constantly. it doesn’t fix the fact that i wash my hands like 400 times a day, but it makes the aftermath bearable. safe, effective, and one of the few creams that actually makes me feel human again instead of a snake shedding its skin. ... show more

  • A bit thin, but highly effective!
I've used a lot of different hydrocortisone creams over the years, and this one is by far my favorite! I know different things work for different people, but for me, this does best at both helping with the itch as well as moisturizing my skin. It also doesn't turn into this gross flakey texture after sitting on my skin for awhile like some other brands have. My only complaint about this is that it's a lot thinner than other creams, so it's very easy to overuse it if you squeeze the tube too hard...and it's too expensive to overuse if you don't have to! So be careful when you're squeezing it out or you're going to get way more than you bargained for! Otherwise, I definitely recommend this! ... show more

  • Works- but many are priced better.
Works like every cortisone OTC cream. I needed extra help, Cera Ve always does well. This was average. Nice consistency, no chemical smell. Just too expensive for this OTC itch med
