Learn more about Cetearyl AlcoholNiacinamide has emerged as an all-star ingredient due to its many benefits.

The cherry on top? Niacinamide can also help build keratin, a protein that keeps skin firm.
When incorporating niacinamide into your routine, look out for concentration amounts. Typically, 5% niacinamide provides benefits such as fading dark spots. However, if you have sensitive skin, it is better to begin with a smaller concentration.
Niacinamide can be mixed with other ingredients to boost benefits. For instance, it has shown to be effective when used with copper, folic acid, and zinc to treat acne.
Learn more about NiacinamideCitric Acid is an AHA derived from citrus fruits (think oranges, lemons, and limes!).

Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser 10 ingredients
SkinSort says this product is terrible match for me 9/100 but I've been using it for years and it's my #1 product that constantly rescue me from irritation due to over exfo caused by whatever product I've been trying so far.
This is among the worst cleansers I’ve ever tried. I’m a big skincare gal and I’ve given this many chances. Never has it worked for my concerns.
