Ethics

- CeraVe has a cruelty-free status and is generally well-regarded for its formulations, but it lacks third-party certifications and transparency regarding its supply chain. Additionally, as a brand owned by L'Oréal, it is associated with a parent company that has faced criticism for animal testing practices.
