Triple Acid Blend
Our unique triple acid blend combines Salicylic Acid, Mandelic Acid and Gluconolactone for gentle daily exfoliation for sensitive skin.
Glycerin
Glycerin is a naturally occurring compound. It is a water-soluble emollient that softens and smooths skin. It also produces long-lasting moisturization by attracting water into the skin and helping to retain skin moisture, leaving it appearing healthy and youthful.
Urea Cream
Urea occurs naturally within the skin as part of the natural moisturizing factors. It has a dual-action with both keratolytic (shedding the horny outer of the skin, only at specific percentages) and hydrating effects. This allows it to soften and moisturize, making it ideal for dry, roughened skin.
Sweet Almond Oil
Sweet almond oil, made from almonds, has emollient properties which allow it to smoothen and soften dry, irritated skin and tackle rough skin textures. Other properties include moisturization and tackling skin aging. It also contains vitamin E for its antioxidant effects.

FAQs
Before we go into specifics: What are ceramides? Ceramides are natural lipids that make up about 50% of the outer layer of your skin. They offer a natural protective barrier along with fatty acids that support the skin against moisture loss and environmental stressors. Ceramides help to maintain hydration, smoothness, and resilience.
Cetaphil’s Ceramide Serum helps strengthen the skin’s natural protective barrier. The serum helps restore moisture balance, soothing the skin and helping reduce the visible signs of sensitivity - making it ideal for sensitive, dry, or compromised skin. With regular use, the serum promotes a healthier, smoother complexion while helping visibly improve skin texture and minimizing the appearance of fine lines.
Ceramides are a great addition to any skincare routine: they can help you get closer to your skincare goals by helping strengthen the skin’s moisture barrier to soothe the skin. Make the Cetaphil Ceramide Serum a part of your daily skincare routine using the following steps:
- Always use the Cetaphil Ceramide Serum on clean skin. We recommend the Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser which is suited for normal and dry skin types. Pat your skin dry with a towel.
- Use the included dropper to apply pea-sized drops of the Cetaphil Ceramide Serum on your face as needed. Massage gently using a circular upward motion so it forms an even layer across your skin.
- Let the serum absorb into your skin for a minute or two.
- Follow-up with a moisturizer - for optimal results, use the Cetaphil daily moisturizing range. We recommend supplementing with an eye gel like the Cetaphil Hydrating Eye Gel-Cream for the sensitive skin under your eyes.
While serums with ceramides do not directly fade dark spots, they can offer benefits that may help visibly brighten and smooth the skin’s appearance over time. Serums with ceramides can help support and replenish your skin’s moisture barrier. This in turn can lead to a more visibly even and radiant complexion.
Ceramides help form a protective lipid barrier that enhances skin resilience and locks in moisture. Ceramides also help your skin stay flexible and prevent dryness. Read more about how ceramides can help your skin.The Cetaphil Ceramide Serum combines these benefits with those of other key ingredients, such as CICA and allantoin. Cica, short for Centella asiatica, is a plant extract, which along with allantoin, helps to soothe the skin and lock-in moisture. The formulation helps protect against environmental stressors and helps reduce the look of redness associated with sensitive skin.
