Cetaphil skincare products are specially formulated to be gentle on sensitive skin yet effective at cleansing and moisturising. Extensive research goes into selecting our active ingredients for the perfect blend to suit your skincare needs.
Niacinamide, or vitamin B3, is a skin-essential vitamin with moisturising and antioxidant properties. It is effective at locking in moisture and is commonly found in products for oily skin and acne.
Panthenol, or pro-vitamin B5, is a naturally soothing ingredient that helps to relieve skin irritation. It has natural moisturising properties to improve moisture retention, contributing to softer, smoother and healthy-looking skin.
Glycerin is a water-soluble emollient that provides a long-lasting moisturising effect, attracting water to the skin and improving moisture retention. It stimulates the skin cells to promote younger and healthier-looking skin.
Tocopherol, or vitamin E, is a potent antioxidant that protects the skin against surface free radicals. It hydrates and soothes the skin to relieve irritation.
Shea Butter contains high levels of vitamins and fatty acids that are beneficial to the skin. It restores the natural skin barrier, improving moisture retention to help prevent dryness and minimize irritation.
Hyaluronic Acid naturally occurs in the skin, but its levels decrease as we age. It is used in skincare products for its impressive ability to retain water, effectively hydrating the skin and boosting its elasticity.
Ceramides can be found in the outermost layer of the skin. Ceramides contribute to the natural protective barrier that helps to keep irritants out and moisture in. In skincare products, they help to make your skin more resilient against dryness and irritation.
Aloe Vera is made up of more than 95% water, making it an excellent moisturiser for your skin. As well as hydrating, it can naturally and gently exfoliate, helping to refresh and revitalize your skin.
Urea is a humectant with both keratolytic and hydrating properties, providing deep and effective hydration while softening the skin, making it ideal for rough and dry skin.
Bisabolol has a number of beneficial properties in skin care, including antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and soothing effects. It protects the skin from surface free radical damage and prevents collagen breakdown to help the skin stay firm.
Avocado Oil is rich in essential vitamins A, D and E, nourishing the skin while also moisturising to help tackle dryness and irritated, flaky skin.
Sweet Almond Oil is an emollient that soothes dry, irritated skin and helps to improve skin texture and reduce roughness. It has moisturising effects, can prevent signs of aging and contains lots of vitamin E for powerful antioxidant effects.
