Cetaphil Baby Daily Lotion with Shea Butter - ( DX027853 )

Cetaphil Baby Daily Lotion with Shea Butter is a gentle, dermatologist-tested daily face and body moisturiser specially developed to hydrate, soften, and protect a newborn’s delicate skin. A baby’s natural skin barrier is up to 30% thinner than an adult’s, making it significantly more susceptible to moisture loss, environmental irritation, and chapping. This soothing formula delivers sustained hydration while preserving the natural protective moisture envelope.

The formula centers on rich natural emollients—including Shea Butter, Sunflower Seed Oil, and Soybean Oil—which work in synergy to restore intercellular lipids and repair dry, flaky areas. Supported by soothing Panthenol (Pro-Vitamin B5) and deep-acting humectants like Glycerin and Sorbitol, this hypoallergenic lotion absorbs smoothly without leaving a greasy or heavy film. Suitable for daily post-bath application across both facial and body contours, it leaves your baby’s skin noticeably soft, calm, and resilient against everyday environmental dryness.

How It Works & Key Benefits

• Barrier Lipid Replenishment: Shea Butter and botanical oils infuse essential fatty acids directly into the upper epidermal layers, strengthening fragile skin structure against flaking.

• Sustained Humectant Moisture: Glycerin, Sorbitol, and Panthenol pull ambient moisture into dehydrated corneocytes, ensuring skin remains plump and conditioned throughout the day.

• Calming & Anti-Dryness Defense: Mitigates redness, dry patches, and environmental micro-irritation by locking in essential moisture.

• Versatile Face & Body Hydration: Ultra-gentle fluid texture spreads smoothly over large surface areas as well as delicate facial cheeks without clogging pores or causing eye discomfort.

Core Active Ingredients & What They Do

• Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea) Butter: A rich botanical butter packed with fatty acids and vitamins that deeply conditions, softens rough skin, and bolsters barrier function.

• Panthenol (Pro-Vitamin B5): A deeply soothing hydrator that supports skin barrier repair, alleviates dryness, and keeps skin feeling comfortable.

• Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil: A lightweight, non-comedogenic plant oil rich in Linoleic Acid that restores barrier integrity and prevents moisture evaporation.

• Glycerin & Sorbitol: Synergistic humectants that draw moisture deep into skin tissues to maintain continuous softness.

• Glycine Soja (Soybean) Oil: A natural emollient rich in lecithin and Vitamin E that nourishes and smooths delicate skin texture.

• Tocopherol (Vitamin E): A natural lipid-soluble antioxidant that shields delicate infant skin against free radical damage.
