Do you suspect you have sensitive skin? Experiencing one or more of the following and don't know what to do? Dryness, roughness, tightness, eczema, acne, rosacea, or dermatitis are some of the common complaints among those who suffer from skin sensitivity, and sometimes, individuals even experience tingling, burning, or pricking sensations. If you think you are one of those who experience this, fret not, for professional help is on the way!

“As a leader in sensitive skin for over 75 years, we are even more committed to delivering cutting-edge products to advance dermatological care for every skin story,” says Jade Silva-netto Ponoc, Galderma Philippines Business Unit Head.

This month is Cetaphil's first-ever Skin Awareness Month—the culmination of the brand's research into the science of gentle skincare, offering a chance to discover the breakthroughs and acquire specifically formulated products to care for all types of sensitive skin. It is part of the brand’s unwaveringly passion for providing complete care for sensitive skin; the Skin Awareness Month offers first-hand access to experts and science-driven recommendations to educate consumers on how best to care for their sensitive skin with a unique routine tailored to them. The annual event started 2021, eventually expanding across the Japan-Asia Pacific region before reaching the Philippines this year.
