Galderma Laboratories Launches New Cetaphil(R) SPF 50 Product

Top Skin Care Brand is Taking Facial Sun Protection to a New Level

FORT WORTH, Texas, Feb. 17 /PRNewswire/ -- Galderma Laboratories is excited to introduce a NEW SPF 50 facial moisturizer from Cetaphil(R), the #1 dermatologist-recommended brand of cleansers and moisturizers, that provides broad spectrum protection. Finally, a product that goes beyond moisturizing, to provide the highest SPF available for a moisturizer designed specifically for the face. Cetaphil(R) UVA/UVB Defense SPF 50 is non-greasy; it nourishes and hydrates skin, while protecting it from the sun’s harmful rays.

Cetaphil(R) UVA/UVB Defense SPF 50 delivers across the spectrum to help protect skin from UVA/UVB rays, and help hydrate as a daily facial moisturizer. It contains an optimum blend of 4 filters and micronized Titanium Dioxide that screen both the UVA and UVB rays. For patients requiring an effective sunscreen as part of the management of their skin related condition, Cetaphil(R) UVA/UVB Defense SPF 50 combines two steps in one making it an ideal choice for both daily sun protection and for moisturizing the face.

Cetaphil(R) UVA/UVB Defense SPF 50 has also been awarded the Skin Cancer Foundation Seal of Recommendation. The Skin Cancer Foundation recommends this product as an effective UV facial sunscreen and as an effective aid in the prevention of sun induced damage to the skin including sunburn and possibly, premature aging. It is important to use proper UVA/UVB filters to help prevent sunburn and other skin damage.

The lightweight formula of the Cetaphil(R) UVA/UVB Defense SPF 50 hydrates the skin to avoid evaporation and absorbs quickly, leaving no filmy white residue. It is fragrance free, non-irritating and non-comedogenic, so it won’t clog pores, making it a suitable choice for those with acne, rosacea or melasma and other skin related conditions, where a hydrating formula with SPF protection is recommended.

Cetaphil(R) UVA/UVB Defense SPF 50 is available in a 1.7 oz. tube for $13.99 and is available at major retail, grocery and drug stores nationwide.
