CetaphilIt seems that Cetaphil has the best PR that any other soap ever. You must have hear about it in the past but if you happen to miss that out, and would like to find out more, just keep reading.

Your skin is super oily and you suffer from acne? It may come to you as a surprise but stripping your skin with harsh cleanser may worsen your skin condition. If you remove the protective layer of sebum form, your face, as a response, your skin will produce even more oil just to balance it out. This way we have more pimples and infected areas than before. We do not realize that all we really need it a gentle cleanser that is going to do its job without removing the skin protective layer. Cetaphil Cleanser is one of that miraculous product, especially if you have some skin issues.

Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser has become hugely popular a few years ago and since then it is the most popular facial cleanser. People love it for being gentle to the sensitive skin and for not causing any skin allergies. Cetaphil contains only a few ingredients: water, cetyl alcohol, stearyl alcohol, methylparaben, propylene glycol, sodium lauryl sulfate, propylparaben, butylparaben. As people’s awareness increases and they are more aware of the damaging foaming agent-SLS, that unfortunately the Cataphil contains, the sale numbers has dropped since January 2014.

Cetaphil is advertised as the specially designed skin cleanser that can be used even for infants. Thanks to the micellar ingredients, the product removes the make up without the help of water. If you just came back from a party or a business meeting and you do not feel like going to the sink and washing your face, just use the Cataphil and a cotton. Your skin will be perfectly clean and flawless without you leaving the bed.

Cataphil is produced by well-known Galderma Laboratories Company. The Garderma is a a pharmaceutical company which main aim is to research and develop dermatological beauty treatments. It has been founded in 1981 by Nestle and L’Oreal fusion. Unfortunately, only a few product are available in the UK. We can purchase the Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser and two moisturizing lotions so far. Let’s hope we will have a wider choice in the future.

According to the producer, all Cetaphil products including soaps, moisturizers, and lotions are devoted to sensitive skin, prone to acne. The Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser does not clog pores and it does not cause breakouts. It can be used twice a day, as the part of your skin care routine. It perfectly clears oil, dirt, and waterproof makeup. Most of the users prize it for being scent and oil-free. It leaves skin fresh and moisturized. Cataphil products can be purchased in some beauty stores and pharmacies. Although the skin cleanser contains sodium lauryl sulphate (foaming agent) it is still gentle to the skin and can be used on all skin types.

Galderma Laboratories has recently released a soothing lip balm. It comes in white, squeezy tube which contains 15 gr of product. It is available in Spain so far and soon it is going to be introduced to UK.
