Why do I have dry skin?
There are lots of reasons why you may have dry skin, from dry skin conditions to the occasional bit of dry skin caused by your environment. You may experience dry skin after spending time in hot, cold, or dry environments, or rooms that are heated or air-conditioned. Other common causes of dry skin include conditions like eczema, dermatitis, and psoriasis, which cause flare-ups of dry skin, often accompanied by other symptoms like itching and redness. Flare-ups of these dry skin conditions can often be caused by coming into contact with harsh soaps or detergents, which irritate your sensitive skin.
How will Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser care for my sensitive skin?
Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser contains no fragrances or soaps, which can both irritate sensitive skin and cause flare-ups in dry skin conditions like eczema. By replacing your regular cleaners this product helps to protect your skin from those common irritants. The formula is also non-comedogenic, which means it won’t block your pores, helping to keep your skin clean and clear, while avoiding harsh soaps or fragrances.
