We all have heard of Cetaphil as a brand. If you have ever been to a dermatologist for a skin problem, most of them would have certainly recommended you to use Cetaphil. The brand has been a preferred choice for sensitive skin for almost 70 years now. Of late, the brand launched an array of new products. Though the Cetaphil Moisturizing Cream was always available on the counter, now they have added a lot many more moisturizing creams, lotions, serums and gels to their range. There are many Cetaphil Moisturizing Creams, each catering to different skin types and concerns.
Cetaphil Moisturizing Cream – A Comprehensive Review of the Product
We give you a complete breakdown of the goodness of Cetaphil Moisturizing Cream and whether it is worth it to add their skincare products to your regime or not.
The most common concern with our skins is usually a lack of optimum hydration. A well-hydrated skin would always look healthy and feel nourished from within. The problem arises when we try to use the same moisturizer for different skin types.
With age and also due to other factors like nutritional deficiency, environmental pollutants and stressed lifestyles, our skin often loses its natural glow and vigour. The skin barrier weakens with time and the skin starts acting more sensitive and reactive. It becomes very important in such a case to apply a moisturizing cream or lotion that addresses the needs of her skin while giving it ample moisturization.
Cetaphil Moisturizing Cream is specially designed to cater to the hydration needs of super sensitive skin. The cream is an enriched formulation of Vitamins B3, B5 and glycerin to lock in moisture into the skin barriers. It is clinically proven to provide deep hydration that lasts for a good 40-48 hours.
White in colour, the texture of the cream is super soft and literally melts between the fingers. It feels as if you are applying pure malai to your face. It is ideal for people with normal skin. If your skin is super dry, then this cream may not quench all the moisture needs of your skin. What works the best with this cream is that it is free from artificial fragrances, parabens and sulphates, ingredients that have never been good news for the skin. It is super gentle on the skin and absorbs almost seamlessly into the deeper layers. With its hypoallergenic formula, this cream works as an ideal AM PM moisturizer for acne-prone and sensitive skin.
With a lot of moisturizing creams, they tend to leave a white residue or feel a little heavy on the skin. Cetaphil Moisturizing Lotion is almost feather-light and you would not even realize you are wearing anything on your skin at all. So always remember to layer it up with sunscreen or a sunblock though.
When it comes to ingredients, the cream is bursting at seams with the goodness of Sunflower Seed Oil, Vitamin E, Sweet Almond oil and more.
The kind of Instagram frenzied world that we live in, we have been manipulated to believe that only brands that curate a mesmerizing branding strategy or that spend hugely on their marketing campaigns have some miraculous skincare products to offer. Most of the time, the overtly expensive skin care products do not really have any unique ingredients in them and their formulations too are absolutely mediocre. They do not do any real good to the skin but just the online publicity that they create hypes their product to be sold better. On the other hand, there are some authentic, unadulterated skincare brands like Cetaphil that research hard and create products that actually do wonders for the skin. Just because they are not ubiquitously present on every marketing platform and do not overspend on their marketing budgets, their products are not overpriced.
With most of the brands these days, they add their marketing costs to the retail price of their products and ultimately the consumer ends up paying for their extravagant advertising expenses. The Cetaphil Moisturizing Cream, priced at INR 807 for a jar of 250 gm, is just as good or rather better than a fancy, over publicized cream that can burn a big hole into your pocket.
For people with other skin concerns like an over dry skin, under-eye puffiness, rough skin, they also have a huge range of products like Soothing Gel-Cream with Aloe, Rich Hydrating Cream, Hydrating Eye-Gel Cream, Intensive Moisturizing Cream and more.
Those with excessively oily skin shall prefer a gel or lotion over a cream. The brand has an exhaustive range of Daily Facial Moisturizers and Hydrating Lotions both with and without SPF. Since they are so thoughtful and caressing for the skin, the brand is also one of the most preferred choices when it comes to baby care. They have launched an entire collection of Baby Cleansers, Baby Lotions and Baby Diaper Creams to take care of the delicate baby skin.
The popularity of the brand can be very well gauged from the fact that it does not only enjoy mass popularity in India but is also a hugely admired derma-recommended skincare brand in the US as well.
