Cetaphil Skin Activator Hydrating & Firming Cream

Product Information

As we age, our skin cells become less active or "go to sleep," slowing processes like surface cell turnover and barrier repair, resulting in visible signs of aging. Cetaphil Skin Activator Hydrating & Firming Cream is designed to wake up those sleeping skin cells. This anti-aging body cream is clinically proven to smooth skin texture in 1 week and visibly firm skin in 4 weeks.

What makes it so effective? It features Skin Activator technology that delivers microdosed Mandelic acid (AHA) and encapsulated Centella Asiatica (CICA) deep into the surface skin layers to increase skin cell turnover. AHA helps increase surface skin cell turnover to visibly reduce dull, uneven skin, while CICA helps restore the skin's moisture barrier to visibly plump and firm skin.

This skin restoring cream hydrates for 48 hours and helps repair your skin's natural moisture barrier over time. In fact, 88% of users said their skin looked less crepey in 2 days, and 94% said their skin looked firmer after just 1 month. It was developed with dermatologists and previously only available from a health care professional. It is hypoallergenic, fragrance-free, paraben-free, and won't clog pores – making it safe for twice daily use on thinning, fragile, sagging, loose, and sensitive skin.
