Cetaphil Gentle Exfoliating & Hydrating SA Lotion 473ml (Canada)

Cetaphil Gentle Exfoliating & Hydrating SA Lotion (473ml)

This specialized lotion is designed to tackle rough, bumpy skin texture while maintaining the brand's signature focus on skin barrier health. It combines the chemical exfoliation of Salicylic Acid (SA) with a blend of hydrating ingredients to ensure the skin remains smooth without irritation.

Key Product Features

Active Ingredient: Contains Salicylic Acid, a Beta Hydroxy Acid (BHA) that gently dissolves dead skin cells and unclogs pores to smooth out "strawberry skin" or rough patches.

Deep Hydration: Formulated with Hyaluronic Acid to lock in moisture and Urea to help soften extremely dry skin.

Skin Barrier Support: Enriched with Ceramides and Niacinamide (Vitamin B3) to soothe the skin and strengthen its natural protective barrier.

Gentle Formula: Fragrance-free, hypoallergenic, and non-comedogenic, making it suitable even for sensitive skin types.

Primary Benefits

Smoothing Action: Effectively reduces the appearance of bumps and rough texture (often associated with Keratosis Pilaris).

24-Hour Hydration: Provides continuous moisture to prevent the dryness often associated with exfoliating acids.

Lightweight Finish: Despite its intensive hydrating properties, the lotion absorbs quickly without leaving a greasy or sticky residue.

Microbiome Friendly: Designed to improve skin resilience over time rather than just providing a temporary fix.

How to Use

Cleanse: Start with a gentle body wash or cleanser.

Apply: Apply the lotion liberally to clean, dry skin.

Target Areas: Pay extra attention to rough or bumpy areas like the backs of the arms, thighs, or elbows.

Sun Protection: Because Salicylic Acid can increase sun sensitivity, it is highly recommended to apply sunscreen to exposed areas of the body during the day.
