MIAMI – Galderma today announced that Cetaphil, the dermatologist-recommended brand trusted by millions with sensitive skin, is expanding its science-backed Nourishing line with the launch of the Nourishing & Hydrating Lotion and Nourishing & Hydrating Cream. Developed specifically for sensitive skin, these new body care innovations are powered by advanced hydration and barrier science to replenish essential skin lipids, help support and restore the skin barrier, and deliver proven glow as a visible sign of healthier-looking skin.
Sensitive skin is more prone to lipid deficiency, which can weaken the skin barrier and lead to moisture loss, dryness, roughness, and increased susceptibility to irritation. Aging and everyday environmental stressors can further deplete these essential lipids, making replenishment critical to maintaining healthy, resilient skin. Consumers are increasingly seeking healthy, glowing skin across face and body, and Cetaphil is meeting that need through clinically developed barrier science that nourishes the skin beyond the surface.
The new Nourishing & Hydrating Lotion and Cream represent the next evolution of Cetaphil’s Nourishing line, bringing the same technology-driven approach to body care formulations. Backed by clinical and consumer testing, the Nourishing & Hydrating Lotion delivers visible results from the very first use.
“The success of our Nourishing Oil-to-Foam facial Cleanser reinforced the consumer demand for body care rooted in skin barrier science. As we developed the next evolution of the Cetaphil’s Nourishing line, we focused on addressing one of the underlying contributors to dry, sensitive skin—surface lipid depletion. By combining ingredients like hyaluronic acid, lipids, flaxseed oil, and vitamin E in targeted formulations, we created products that not only provide long-lasting hydration, but also help replenish essential skin lipids, strengthen the skin barrier and support healthier-looking skin," said JP York, director, U.S. Medical affairs, dermatological skincare at Galderma.
Rather than simply moisturizing the skin's surface, the Nourishing line delivers targeted nourishment through advanced ingredient technology tailored to different hydration needs. In consumer assessment results, 79% agreed their skin looked more glowy after just one use. Specifically, for the cream, 98% agreed their skin felt and looked less dry and more hydrated with consistent use.
"Our goal was to formulate body moisturizers that go beyond surface-level hydration. For people with sensitive skin, the ability to nourish while maintaining the skin barrier is critical, making these formulas with carefully selected ingredients is an important advancement over traditional body moisturizers," said Dr. Aaron Farberg dermatologist and mohs surgeon, Baylor Scott & White Health (U.S.)
A new approach to nourishing body care for sensitive skin
Cetaphil's Nourishing & Hydrating Lotion and Nourishing & Hydrating Cream were developed to deliver targeted nourishment for different hydration needs while supporting the skin barrier with science-backed ingredients:
- Nourishing & Hydrating Lotion instantly replenishes surface skin lipids for clinically proven glow, healthier-looking skin while providing up to 48-hours of hydration. Powered by Hyaluronic Acid, Lipids, and Flaxseed Oil, the lightweight, oil-infused formula helps retain moisture, soothe skin, and support the skin barrier for lasting hydration and visible radiance.
- Nourishing & Hydrating Cream provides rich, long-lasting nourishment for normal to very dry skin with 72-hour hydration and proven glow. Formulated with Lipids and Vitamin E, the fast-absorbing cream deeply replenishes moisture while helping support and restore the skin barrier, leaving skin healthier-looking, smoother, and deeply hydrated. Both the lotion and the cream are hypoallergenic, fragrance-free, alcohol-free, paraben-free, and developed specifically for sensitive skin.
