Manufacturer DeclarationsAbout This Product A dermatologist-trusted classic for deep, barrier-focused hydration. Cetaphil Moisturising Cream is a rich emollient cream designed to restore and protect the skin barrier while delivering sustained hydration. Classified as a dermacosmetic, it is formulated with a blend of emollients and humectants - including glycerin, refined almond oil, and dimethicone - that help reduce moisture loss and improve skin softness over time. Its non-irritating, fragrance-free, and paraben-free formula works by reinforcing the lipid barrier, making it especially suitable for compromised, dry, sensitive, or dull skin conditions. The product is also cruelty-free and vegan. This cream can be used on both face and body, offering a thick, nourishing texture that absorbs without leaving a heavy residue. Suitable for all age groups and genders, it performs well in environments with AC exposure, harsh winters, or pollution-heavy urban settings. What This Product Does Restores Skin Barrier Function: Helps replenish lost lipids using emollients like refined almond oil and light liquid paraffin, improving the skin's natural defence against environmental aggressors. Provides Long-Lasting Hydration: An occlusive-plus-humectant system (glycerin, dimethicone, light liquid paraffin) reduces transepidermal water loss (TEWL). Soothes Dryness and Irritation: Suitable for sensitive skin prone to tightness, flaking, or redness. Supports Dull Skin Recovery: Catalogued for concerns including dull skin alongside dryness and sensitivity, helping restore a healthier-looking complexion with consistent use. Multi-Zone Hydration: Effective for both face and body, especially dry areas like elbows, knees, and hands. Climate Adaptive: Performs well in dry AC environments and mild winter conditions, where skin dehydration is common in India. Antioxidant Support: Contains Tocopheryl Acetate (Vitamin E) and ALL-RAC-Alpha Tocopherol, which help protect skin from oxidative stress.
