I’m not good at this kind of thing. Does anyone fancy doing posts once a week or so about them?

    I like their products (they’re relatively inexpensive, widely available, and effective), but no - they are not cruelty free as their products are tested on animals (their products also have animal-derived ingredients).

    CeraVe is a brand owned by L’Oreal, and they have also been in trouble for supporting Israel, so I’ve heard the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) movement has called for boycotting L’Oreal products like CeraVe as well.

        eh, I don’t think all the responsibility falls on the consumer for the immorality of the producer, especially if you as a consumer are not perfectly free to choose more expensive and less accessible products… if you can boycott then that’s great, if you can’t then you shouldn’t feel any guilt over that imo
