Cetaphil addresses Sensitive Skin Awareness Month

Cetaphil has discovered that 70% of individuals worldwide have sensitive skin so most people have experienced the unpleasant skin sensations, such as stinging and burning, that can affect the face and also the body.
As a leading dermatologist recommended brand for sensitive skin, Cetaphil is the skin specialist to trust. With more than 75 years of research, Cetaphil is committed to knowing sensitive skin better than anyone else.

Partnering closely with the world’s leading dermatologists and carrying out 850+ studies on more than 37,000 patients, Cetaphil has identified the five signs of skin sensitivity: dryness, roughness, irritation, tightness, and a weakened skin barrier.

April is Sensitive Skin Awareness Month and Cetaphil is here to support you with its scientific and derm-backed solutions: identify the signs of skin sensitivity, dos and don’ts for sensitive skin, and the best ingredients and products for all to feel good in their skin.

CAN YOU SPOT IF YOU ARE SUFFERING FROM SKIN SENSITIVITY?

Dryness: Dry skin can feel rough, tight, or even itchy. Visible signs include flakes, cracks or skin that feels raw in texture.

Roughness: Excess shedding of skin can lead to flaky, dull and uneven skin texture.

Tightness: Taut, stretched and strained skin lacking in moisture and hydration which is commonly experienced after using a skincare product that strips the natural moisture in your skin.

Irritation: Irritated skin can have unpleasant sensations such as stinging, itching and discomfort.

Weakened skin barrier: If any of the above signs of sensitivity are identified, chances are the skin has a weakened barrier which allows irritants to penetrate and hydration to escape.
