Curel ceramide face cream for sensitive and dry skin — seals in moisture with a non-greasy barrier layer.
About this product
Japan's most trusted face cream for compromised skin — KAO Curel Intensive Moisture Care Face Cream delivers the ceramide-based barrier repair technology that made the Curel line Japan's leading brand for atopy-prone and extremely sensitive skin. Used as the final step in the Curel routine after lotion and emulsion, the face cream forms a breathable occlusive layer that locks the preceding moisture layers into the skin and provides sustained protection against trans-epidermal water loss throughout the day or night. Curel's unique ceramide functional ingredient — a synthetic ceramide analogue that closely mirrors the structure of human skin ceramides — is delivered through the cream's rich base to the uppermost layers of the stratum corneum, reinforcing the intercellular lipid structure that is deficient in dry and atopy-prone skin. The cream is notably non-greasy for its moisture-delivery efficacy, absorbing within 2–3 minutes to a soft, slightly cushioned finish. Fragrance-light and tested for sensitive skin suitability — one of Japan's most physician-endorsed daily moisturisers.
How to use
- Apply as the final step of your Curel routine, after lotion and any emulsion.
- Warm a pea-sized amount between fingertips to soften the cream before applying.
- Press gently onto cheeks, forehead, and chin using flat palms — avoid rubbing which can disrupt the moisture layers applied below.
- Use the smallest remaining amount on the eyelid area and lip border if dryness is present there.
- Apply morning and evening; increase frequency during winter or in low-humidity environments.

FAQ
Does the cream work without the Curel lotion?
Best results come from the full Curel routine — lotion + cream; the cream alone may feel insufficient for very dry skin without the hydration base.
Is it suitable for around the eyes?
Yes — Curel cream is safe for the eye contour area.
Can children use it?
Suitable for older children; for infants and toddlers with eczema, consult a paediatric dermatologist.
Does it clog pores?
Curel is non-comedogenic and formulated to be safe for daily facial use.
When should I use cream vs emulsion?
Cream is richer — use in winter, for night-time, or when skin is severely dry; emulsion for lighter day-time moisture.
🇵🇭 For Philippines customers
For Filipinas with perpetually dry, tight, or sensitised facial skin — often worsened by over-use of whitening actives and daily sun exposure — KAO Curel face cream is the final step that seals in the moisture work done by the lotion and emulsion beneath it.
The ceramide-based formula forms a breathable occlusive layer without the heavy, pore-clogging texture that tropical humidity makes unbearable — locking hydration in through Metro Manila's 30°C+ days while still allowing skin to breathe normally.
