Product Information

Kraft JN, Lynde CV. Moisturizers: What they are and a practical approach to product selection. Skin Therapy Letter. 2005; 10(5). The Cetaphil Moisturizing Cream is designed for dry and sensitive skin. The cream has a long-lasting hydrating sensation that makes it suitable for very dry and eczema-prone skin. The cream also contains methyl hydroxybenzoate, which helps in preventing bacteria and fungi growth and is generally safe for skin. The Qv, on the other hand, doesn’t foam and aims to sink into the skin, pumping in immediate hydration. This will work well for people with chronic dry skin conditions or rashes. A soap-free alternative cleanser for the treatment of dry, scaly skin and relief of symptoms of atopic or infantile eczema and psoriasis. The pH balanced formula gently cleanses while hydrating sensitive skin to help ensure skin is left feeling clean and soft, not tight and dry. With added glycerin for increased skin hydration.

It covers most skin types and leaves a fresher, healthier feeling to the skin, resurfacing and soothing inflamed and damaged tissue.Because the Cetaphil is oil free, it will work with most skin types and, although it is targeted at dry skin, it can work for combination skin too as it’s oil-free. They’re different in that QV foams up well and Cetaphil doesn’t. Cetaphil is also suitable for people with very sensitive skin while QV is great for dry skin. This light, low-irritant, all-over body moisturising lotion can be used for everyday relief of dry skin and it can be applied as often as required to affected areas. QV Skin Lotion repairs and soothes dry skin.[1]

QV Skincare is a complete emollient therapy range consisting of two cleansers ( QV Gentle Wash and QV Bath Oil) and three moisturisers ( QV Cream, QV Skin Lotion and QV Intensive Ointment) (Table 1). The two cleansers can simply be used to cleanse the skin while helping to leave it hydrated and intact at the same time. The three moisturisers contain ‘triple moisturising’ technology, and are designed to aid in the management of both healthy skin and dry skin conditions such as eczema and psoriasis. When used appropriately and regularly, QV cleansers and moisturisers can effectively reduce water loss from the outermost layer of skin (the stratum corneum) and maintain the skin’s protective/barrier function, resulting in soft and supple skin.[1] If you’re looking for a daily face wash routine to maintain your skin hydration and youthful appearance, then the Cetaphil is the right way to go. The cream can be used on any part of the skin including the hands, feet, knees, and areas that need continuous moisturization. The products are simple, affordable, but also of good quality. Whether it’s your hair or body that you’re looking to care for, you can find a QV product that’ll suit you. This means that each cream is especially developed to help the skin recover from different activities throughout the day.Their products are good for both sensitive and dry skin and both come with absolutely no fragrance, artificial colors, or paraben. For people who have combination skin, this might mean that the cream leaves a little oily residue if it’s not used sparingly. However, it’s an excellent option for preventing dry skin.
