Cetaphil Gentle Exfoliating SA Lotion 473 ml is a dermatologist-developed daily exfoliating moisturizer specially formulated for all skin types, including sensitive skin. Manufactured in Canada by Galderma, this advanced lotion provides 48-hour hydration while promoting daily skin surface renewal for noticeably softer, smoother skin after just one use.
Its innovative Triple Acid Blend combines Salicylic Acid (BHA), Mandelic Acid (AHA), and Gluconolactone (PHA) to gently remove dead skin cells, refine skin texture, improve uneven skin tone, and help reduce the appearance of roughness without irritating sensitive skin.
Barrier-supporting ingredients including Niacinamide (Vitamin B3), Panthenol (Pro-Vitamin B5), Glycerin, Shea Butter, and Vitamin E help replenish moisture, soothe the skin, and strengthen the skin's natural protective barrier. The lightweight formula is fragrance-free, paraben-free, hypoallergenic, and non-comedogenic, making it suitable for daily use on both the face and body. It also helps defend against the five signs of sensitive skin: dryness, roughness, tightness, itchiness, and a weakened skin barrier.
