Questions & Answers

Have animals been used in the testing process?

I agree with this statement. Cetaphil (galderma) is tested on animals by its makers, which is unfortunate. It used to be that I used this cleanser until I discovered it didn't work. The entire world needs to boycott companies that still practice this awful and outdated

Can you tell me why the ingredients are Would you recommend a good cleanser to me?

Reading the ingredients in that form isn't as frightening as some might think once you find out why they are listed this way. Parables, for example, can be thought of as waxes. Wouldn't it be easier to just say wax here and insert the source type? As a result of when certain products were first introduced on the market, and who the target consumer was at the time. It was essentially the Atomic Age during the 1950s and 1960s, when science was viewed with a great deal of faith. Consumers have a tendency to trust ingredient lists less when there is less information on them. A marketing firm urged companies to stop using terms like "Traditional Tallow Soap" on labels and to use more specific language like "Sodium Talloate.". As a result, it sounds more like the soap was made the same way the Amish make it, but is innovative and has a good ring to it I made it. This trust must be earned. Additionally, this was around the time when the first commercial baby formulas were introduced, and they were called formulas since they sounded like they were lab-made It could be trusted because it was made. It was a Baby Boomer thing, which I totally understand and can totally relate to. * Then we come to Generation X, Millennials (formerly Generation Y), and Gen It was painful to watch old research paper results fall apart over and over again when replicated under identical conditions, and to watch politics devolve to the point that it cannot be understood Upon realizing that marketing is all about selling lies, I realized that functionality is the key to marketing. There's a tendency among those three generations not to trust very easily, especially if they are being pushed to believe something is complex when it isn't. It is not cool to call things by scientific names They want to know what the common name of an ingredient is. "Aloe Barbadensis" is now referred to as "Aloe Extract," again, bringing the term back to its original usage. Now we are going to talk about Boomers make up the largest segment of the company's clientele. It never ceases to amaze me how they love complex terminology for something so simple. It appears in the list like it was compiled by a mad scientist. Actually, it is just ordinary, very simple ingredients (you could make it yourself if you really wanted to, but it would cost much more), but they want the list to look this way so traditional consumers keep buying it. This is a very simple look at generational differences and very interesting.

How much of each ingredient is there?

Only eight active ingredients are contained in Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser Cetyl alcohol, propylene glycol, sodium lauryl sulfate, and stearyl alcohol are all ingredients.

How does the waterproof formula work)?

The product removes waterproof as well as non-waterproof substances The mascara should be waterproof.

Selected User Reviews For Face Wash by Cetaphil, Hydrating Gentle Skin Cleanser for Dry to Normal Sensitive Skin 4 oz Pack of 3, Fragrance Free and Non Foaming

You must be careful when purchasing a formula! Among my reads I see a mix of feedback about how great this product is, or how it used to be great but now it doesn't feel the same, or how it's terrible and people don't get why it got One of the things that is easy to miss is that Cetaphil face wash is available in TWO formulas
3/5

You can choose between a daily face wash and a gentle face wash. Besides the one word - there is no distinction in the packaging You can use it daily or gently. Several times, I have accidentally purchased the same gentle cleanser because it is the one available on Amazon and I have missed the slight difference in Cleansing with the daily cleanser is a fantastic experience. This product takes off all your makeup and leaves your skin feeling fresh and not overly dry afterward. There is little to no removal with this cleanser, which looks like a thick It may be that you bought the wrong kind of cetaphil if you're having a bad experience with it. It is very rare for me to find a daily cleanser on Amazon so I usually purchase it at the local drugstore. I don't like it, but it's essential. You will see the difference if you give it a try.

Do not take the reviews at face value
3/5

I will keep this as brief as I can, this product consists of something totally different than the facial cleanser. My acne has generally been minimal with Cetaphil, but after using the "gentle skin cleanser" once, I immediately break out in a lot of spots. The cleanser you are using is probably the best for your skin type. Otherwise, look for the specific variant for your face.

5/5

Be gentle with each other. The perfect cleanser for your face in the morning. I found it to calm my rosacea, It is important not to misjudge this product by believing that it is the cleansing product known as "Cetaphil Daily Facial Cleanser" by Cetaphil. " The product that has been sold by this seller, namely the "Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser," is the actual product. There is a big difference between the two The cleanser is supposed to be opaque and whitish, with no Two years ago my dermatologist recommended it to me when I developed rosacea on my cheeks for no apparent reason. In the past, my acne had always been normal and unproblematic - The skin should be free. After using it for a while, I decided to switch to Google. Indeed, it is a soothing and gentle sound. As far as removing makeup is concerned, I don't use it. As far as I can tell, it isn't designed to remove makeup or sunscreen with SPF 50. You're right, as I will use another one that's tried and true - After cleansing your face in the evening, apply a toner. It is Cetaphil Gentle Cleanser that I use first thing in the morning to purify my skin, followed by a gentle exfoliator or a hair conditioner I have a holy grail toner I cling Cleaning my skin in this way sets a calm canvas upon which I can apply the rest of my skincare regimen (toner, serum, moisturizer, etc. It is coded as SPF). Having tried this on my own, I no longer have rosacea (and without any prescription). can also count on this gentle cleanser for timely relief from irritation when I try a new product that I didn't expect. Therefore, if you expected it to be another, completely different product from Cetaphil, please do not be offended if this is not what you had anticipated. It is entirely possible that this product did not work for you or that it resulted in skin irritation for you, as this is only one person's experience, opinion. Last but not least, if you're concerned about parabens, I totally My normal approach to parabens is to avoid them. However, note that it is listed last on this product. That's a good sign. You should also read Paula Begoun's op-ed about parabens in skincare (of Paula's Choice), the seasoned advocate turned beauty expert and manufacturer. The beautypedia can be found here. This is a company.

It is horrible to use Gentle Skin Cleanser
3/5

Makeup will not be removed. Doesn't seem to do anything once in a while. You should not confuse this gentle skin cleanser with its daily facial cleanser (which is absolutely.

The truth is that this is really awful for people with redness I can't believe it! It's been at least a decade since I started using this Gentle Skin Cleanser
3/5

It has been 33 years since I was born. Eczema and rosacea are two of my skin problems. There is never a time when either will disappear. It was mentioned to me that this was SPECIFICALLY meant for problems like The Rx medicine I am taking for my rosacea has not greatly improved my symptoms, and my eczema has gotten worse. When my dermatologist recommended I check the ingredients on all these soaps I have around the house, I did some research and came to find out that eczema-causing ingredients were in many of them. The most common skin conditions are rosacea and acne prone Sodium lauryl sulphate has a negative effect on prone skin. Unfortunately, I choose soaps that are so irritant with their parabans and sulphates that it breaks my heart. I take expensive medicines to rid both of my problems, and so I find out that I have to use soaps that irritate my skin. There is no commonplace ingredient that impacts the skin's barrier as negatively as sulphates. It is only through repair of the skin's barrier system that redness can be reduced and skin calmed. Well, that's all well and good. We are a com company In the case of Cetaphil, there are the following ingredients The three parabens are among the dirty dozen, a list of cosmetic ingredients to avoid being toxic. All but the water are from chemical manufacture (hopefully), and propylene glycol, sodium lauryl sulfate, and parabens are poisonous. I am looking for a new cleanser" "With this said, I am searching for one.

A counterfeit product is one that is not authentic I recommend that you do not buy this! A counterfeit product! product in September but did not open it until now (my last bottle had not yet run out), and I discovered that both of the bottles contained a weak scent There was something that looked like liquid laundry detergent in the pack
3/5

I’ve tried several and found this to be transparent (the real Cetaphil is milky and translucent), a bit thicker than the real Cetaphil, and has a harsh detergent-like smell My skin was burning and had an unpleasant odor.

It started out well, but then it started to irritate my During the first two weeks and a half, it worked great, but after use, my skin was burning
3/5

Clindamycin Phosphate 1% and Tretinoin Cream 0. 03% are the products I use. I was prescribed a topical cream called Nioxin 05% for acne scars by my dermatologist. Although I initially suspected that it was one of the prescriptions that had irritated my skin, the burning has almost totally stopped after 3 days without using the Cetaphil Cleanser. It didn't work for my skin type. Unfortunately, I really wanted to love this product.
