About Cetaphil
Cetaphil has been a trusted name in sensitive skincare since 1947, when a pioneering pharmacist in Texas developed the original Cetaphil Cleansing Lotion. Remarkably, this same gentle formula remains at the heart of the brand's iconic Gentle Skin Cleanser nearly 80 years later. The brand name itself reflects its core values: 'Cet' derives from cetearyl alcohol, a hydrating ingredient, whilst 'phil' means love. Today Cetaphil is owned by Galderma, the Swiss dermatology specialist present in approximately 90 countries worldwide. The brand has evolved from its single cleanser origins to offer a comprehensive range of products including cleansers, moisturisers, lotions, creams and specialised treatments for various skin concerns. In 2021, Cetaphil reformulated many products to include beneficial ingredients such as niacinamide, panthenol and glycerin, enhancing their moisturising and skin-soothing properties whilst maintaining the gentle approach the brand is known for. The formulations are developed with dermatologists and clinically tested on sensitive skin. The UK range includes the bestselling Gentle Skin Cleanser, Moisturising Lotion, Daily Facial Moisturiser and targeted solutions for conditions like eczema and very dry skin. The brand continues innovating with 2025 launches including the Nourishing Oil to Foam Cleanser and the Skin Activator Hydrating & Firming line for ageing skin concerns.
