New! Cetaphil® Hydrating Foaming Cream Cleanser

Cetaphil®, the No.1 dermatological skincare brand in Malaysia* is delighted to announce the launch of its new Hydrating Foaming Cream Cleanser, a cream-to-foam face and body cleanser. Formulated with aloe vera, this nourishing and hydrating cleanser is suitable for all skin types and is clinically proven to provide up to 8 hours of skin barrier maintenance. It is also clinically proven to remove up to 97% of pollution particles.

Using state-of-the-art cream-to-foam technology, Cetaphil® Hydrating Foaming Cream Cleanser utilizes an Amino Acid Surfactant System, which effectively eliminates dirt, excess oil and even makeup while ensuring the skin remains nourished and free from dryness or tightness.

It also combines the soothing properties of Aloe Vera with a dermatologically supported blend of Glycerin, Niacinamide, and Panthenol. This cleanser, which is activated by water to turn into foam, helps to maintain moisture in the skin, leaving it hydrated and soothed. It is effective yet gentle.

Moreover, this cleanser has been clinically proven to remove pore-clogging impurities while maintaining the skin’s natural protective barrier and pH levels. It also reduces the 5 signs of sensitive skin and is clinically proven to decrease skin tightness and irritation after 7 days of use, showing a 79% decrease in signs of skin sensitivity after 1 month.

Galderma Malaysia’s Country Manager, Ms. Cindy Tiu, emphasizes Galderma’s steadfast dedication to upholding its position as the leading pure-play dermatology category leader driving innovation within this field.

“Galderma and Cetaphil® are committed to redefining skincare, one innovative product at the time. We understand the evolving needs of consumers, which is why we have introduced Cetaphil® Hydrating Foaming Cream Cleanser – a lathering cleanser that caters to these specific requirements.”

“While traditional cleansers offer lathering properties that consumers desire, they often utilize a sulphate-based surfactant system which can lead to drying and other skin issues. Our ground-breaking formula sets us apart. It is thoughtfully crafted to cleanse effectively while maintaining skin hydration, devoid of soap, fragrance, and parabens, ensuring a gentle yet comprehensive skincare solution,” she added.

The Cetaphil® Hydrating Foaming Cream Cleanser is now available for purchase at all leading pharmacies, priced at only RM58 for a 236ml pack. Learn more about the Cetaphil® Hydrating Foaming Cream Cleanser and stand a chance to redeem a free sample here:
