Cetaphil^® In the News

Every month, Cetaphil^® receives mentions in the media from people and professionals, dermatologists and doctors who use or recommend the Cetaphil^® line of cleansers and moisturizers. Here are some of the highlights:

March 2008

• What worked for you as a teen isn’t necessarily the best routine for your skin today. In Good Housekeeping, dermatologist Mary Lupo, M.D. advises that the “over-washing [of mature skin] can remove the surface oils that keep it supple.” Lupo recommends that you “cleanse no more than twice a day.” If your skin is “sensitive or extra-dry, alternate with a mild product like Cetaphil^® Daily Facial Cleanser.”
  
  

• On a Today Show segment discussing the treatment of adult acne, Liz Vaccariello, Editor-in-Chief of Prevention magazine, says that “a lot of dermatologists recommend Cetaphil. Ideal for sensitive or dry skin, Cetaphil^® Gentle Skin Cleanser is “non-medicated”.
  
  
  
• The word is out—expensive doesn’t equal better when it comes to skin care! That’s why Real Simple magazine’s Suzanne Rust recommends Cetaphil^® Daily Facial Moisturizer SPF 15 ($10.50 at drugstore.com), a “silky-smooth, fragrance-free” moisturizer that “provides gentle moisturization for all skin types.”
  
  
  
• The author behind the Brown Girl Gumbo blog reveals for clear skin one word—Cetaphil! To help control her “very oily skin,” she washes with Cetaphil^® Daily Facial Cleanser daily, because it is fragrance free and guys can use it, too! Plus, all the products are available at drugstores nationwide.
  
  
  
• Stressed-out skin? “Don’t over-exfoliate,” warns Lisa Donofrio, M.D., in April’s Fitness. As an alternative to harsh chemicals, she recommends using a “creamy cleanser” like Cetaphil^® Gentle Skin Cleanser on a “soft, terry washcloth to slough off dead skin cells.”
  
  
  
• Looking for a cleanser with the “oomph… to take off a full face of makeup after a long day”? The Makeup Girl blog author pledges her allegiance to Cetaphil^® Daily Facial Cleanser for Normal to Oily Skin, the one product that “offers skin-softening benefits… without stripping your skin.”
  
  
  
• Seeking the ultimate skin care advice? Self magazine’s panel of 17 top dermatologists recommends that, when using a retinol product, you top it with a basic lotion, such as Cetaphil^® lotion to lock in moisture.
  
  
  
• According to Dr. Michelle Hill, “drugstore brands [of sunscreen] are just as good as high-end, pricier products!” In the March issue of Lipstick, Dr. Hill recommends Cetaphil^® Daily Facial Moisturizer SPF 15 as “great sun protection that won’t clog your pores or cause acne.”
  
  
  
• The beauty gurus at Justine magazine are making it easy to find the moisturizer that’s right for your skin type. They recommend Cetaphil^® DailyAdvance™ Ultra Hydrating Lotion to “quench [the] thirsty complexions” of those with dry skin. How refreshing!
