Cetaphil: A Gentle Skincare Brand Most Prescribed By Dermatologists And Pediatricians
It was February 2012 when I found out that my little kiddo had skin asthma. I was really saddened when her pedia informed me about her condition. This is actually new to me and I didn’t knew this type of illness exists.
So what is it all about? Skin asthma is more commonly known as eczema or Atopic dermatitis. It is a skin condition that has allergic features. It is non-contagious and characterized by chronic inflammation of the skin. The skin appears red, flaky, scaly inflamed patches, and this can be very itchy. This condition can also appear as cracked skin or as small white bumps. In worst cases, scaling and thickening of the skin is common.
One of the primary locations that skin asthma appears is around the body’s joints. Elbows, knees and knuckles are typical places for flareups. Skin asthma also tends to crop up symmetrically; if there is an itchy patch on the inside of your right elbow, it’s likely there is also one on your left elbow, too. Other places that skin asthma can show up is the scalp, around the eyes, mouth, hands, feet and body trunk.
After relying on steroids (which is by the way not a very healthy regimen), my daughter’s pedia, who’s also an allergy and immunology specialist, advised that I should try Cetaphil products such as Cetaphil Restoraderm Skin Restoring Body Moisturizer and Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser. Kimy’s skin must stay moisturized so I need to apply the moisturizer on her whole body twice a day, or as needed. This moisturizer is formulated for very dry itchy skin, and helps restore skin barrier. The Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser on the other hand will serve as her soap for her whole body, it is mild enough to cleanse her delicate skin.
After regular use of Cetaphil Restoraderm Skin Restoring Body Moisturizer and Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser, we saw great improvement on my daughter’s skin. Both works very well at soothing and moisturizing her skin — it went from cracked itchy skin to almost perfect skin! Cetaphil seems to work better on her skin than any other products we tried for Atopic dermatitis. I am so grateful for Cetaphil products!
Anyway, Cetaphil Philippines is so generous that they gave me a big box full of Cetaphil products for me and my baby to try on. Yes, you read it right! They’re really heaven sent! I never expected that they will send me all of these! Lookie!

I’m using the same product po for my skin and even to my face. Ganda po product (Cetaphil). Nkakasmooth talaga ng skin tapos nakakaalis din ng pimples.
Wow, that’s a bunch of lovely gifts! I liked Cetaphil too that I even used it on my face. It must be really challenging to have a skin asthma, glad that your daughter is recovering now.
So lucky! My skin asthma din ako, sana bigyan din nila ako. :(( Aw, I know how it feels to have a skin asthma, kawawa nman si kimy bata pa meron na :(
i have used cetaphil soap before when I accidentally threw a hot milo in my thighs making me to had third degree burn.. and the doctor recommended me to use cetaphil. :D
Glad to know that there are products like these. My cousin has a sensitive skin and Cetaphil works for her.
Aren’t we lucky to have Cetaphil!? They sure know how to take care of our kids skin:)
cetaphil is indeed the (if not, one of the) mildest skin brand for kids and even adults. love this product :)
Rovie,
The Bargain Doll
ohh. I also use Cetaphil.. sobrang okay siya gamitin sa face:)
Cetaphil products are great!
proven tested tlga ang cetaphil..love it!!! :)
My girls are very prone to skin asthma too, that is why we are very careful with our skin regimen.
Swerte you get to try Cetaphil products for free!
I love using this on my face,my skin feels smooth after use:)
Aweee kawawa nmn si kimmy but with cetaphil gooodbye rashes! :D
aww poor thing! good thing she has recovered from her skin asthma :) your little girl is so pretty!
I haven’t used any Cetaphil products but I’m sure this might be an awesome product for the skin.
I use Cetaphil Products for my daughter masyado kcng sensitive kin nya. mabilis madry at bilis magrashes. but nung na use ko to oky na.
Same as with my son but in his case, he was attacked by SSS Syndrome. His skin all over his body becomes damage and sheds (scalded). It’s really heartbreaking when you see your child suffering that kind of skin disease. Good thing my son’s dermatologist recommends Cetaphil bar. What I love in this product, it is gentle, non-comedogenic and hypoellergenic.
I just recently tried the moisturising cream and am loving it a lot!
As a mother it is really heartbreaking to see your little kid scratching all over especially during wee time in the morning. Doctor diagnosed it as chronic urticaria. When we started using cetaphil lotion, itchiness started to diminish. Now, seldom would she scratch anymore. Gives her a goodnight sleep. Thank you cetaphil.
Wow so lucky of you to get all those items.
i really love cetaphil product kasi super lambot & smooth ang skin ko….
It has been proven that Cetaphil is so gentle on skin and great for babies.
Cetaphil is a wonder product, its for everybody! Suitable for sensitive skin. Making your skin smoother, and cleaner.
Good thing Cetaphil is available in the country. It is very helpful to us moms, esp to those with kids with skin asthma and other skin problems.
Wow amazingly lucky! They are really so generous to give you this, imagine if you will buy all of those is kinda expensive. Hehe but well it’s kinda expensive but it’s so worth it to use, my family been using Cethaphil for a long time, we love it so much!

Aww, poor baby. I’m glad Cetaphil works on your little kid! :)
We started using Cetaphil when my sister had some skin breakouts (rashes) which, according to her dermatologist, was the result of prolonged use of skin whitening soaps. She used this particular brand of soap for more than 8 years. Her dermatologist prescribed Cetaphil and it worked. Her rashes disappeared. So effective. :) This encouraged me to use Cetaphil, too. :)
Cetaphil lotion is Good for sensitive skin. and i trusted the brand, coz Even our doctor Recommended it. and it really helped me when my son was hospitalized for Dengue… oooh, i was helpless that time. but thanks to Cetaphil. coz my sons skin was smooth again…
I’ve been using Cetaphil products for my twin. Because they have a delicate skin that’s why I want to take care of it,and only Cetaphil is my trusted product.

Good for Kimmy! at least medyo makaka-save kayo dahil sa free cethapil..When Iris was like 1-3months old cethapil din pinapagamit ko kasi dry yung skin nya…mahalness naman..nung umokey na..back to TC soap.. :P
Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser really works! I was saddened by the news that your child has skin asthma, I just can’t stand children in pain (i might seem OA,but that’s me) anyways, I’m happy that you found a perfect brand for her skin…
i buy cetaphil becoz 1 reason is my daughter have pimples…
still working on this company na isa sa distributor ng cetaphil at proven ko na ang galing nito, a bit pricey though pero sulit pag nakita mo ang effect nito sa skin. family’s trusted product!

My dermatologist recommended me a cetaphil soap,and it really works on my skin because i had skin fungal infection,since then i continue to used it until now with cetaphil lotion. I really love cetaphil and the glow it brings into my life :-)
