Skin care, in general, sounds intimidating and demanding. With the rise of countless beauty and skin care products in the market, one may easily get confused about which brands to try.
“The main goal of having a skin care routine is to maintain the skin’s function at its best, with no irritation or any signs of skin disease,” said the Dr. Aenelle B. Dizon of the Philippine Dermatological Society, stressing that caring for one’s skin should no longer be considered an indulgence but a necessity.
This was backed by Johns Hopkins University, a private research University in Baltimore, Maryland founded in 1876, which stressed that a person’s skin is the “most visible reflection of what's going on inside a person’s body.”
“People equate healthy skin with beauty. But healthy skin is about more than just good looks; it is essential to our survival. So keep your skin glowing with the right skin care techniques and by eating well and getting lots of exercise,” one of the most prestigious universities in the United States and the world stressed.
Skin help: One booth visit away
To break the notion that skin care is high maintenance, Cetaphil, one of the most trusted skin care products in the global market specializing in caring for people with sensitive skin, partnered with Mercury Drug Corporation, the country’s biggest and most trusted wellness hub, and mounted Trusted Derma Solutions booths in leading Mercury Drug stores nationwide to feature skin care products that are highly recommended by dermatologists.
“Cetaphil, one of Galderma’s main brands, serves an important role in fulfilling the company’s purpose of Advancing Dermatology for Every Skin Story. This partnership with Mercury Drug is truly an important milestone to drive an important message that every skin story, given its condition and special needs, deserves the best care,” said Galderma Philippines Business Unit Head, Jade Silva-nettoPonoc.
“We should trust the real experts, board-certified dermatologists, as to how we can best take care of our skin,” she furthered.
Cetaphil, a skin care brand that has been widely recommended by dermatologists for over 75 years now, has four strong product categories that are available in Trusted Derma Solutions Booths in leading Mercury Drug stores across the country.
These four product categories are as follows: Cetaphil, Cetaphil Bright Healthy Radiance, Cetaphil Baby, and Cetaphil PRO AD.
Individuals with sensitive skin may opt to use Cetaphil for complete care. The dermatologist - recommended product, with its now improved formulation, is mainly used to address the so-called five signs of sensitivity, which pertains to being prone to rashes and bumps, stings or burns, itchy skin, redness, as well as acne, that hinder one to live the best life.
Products used to address these skin woes include gentle skin cleansers, exfoliating cleansers, moisturizing lotion, and creams among others.
Cetaphil Bright Healthy Radiance, on the other hand, is best for skin care enthusiasts who are looking for healthy ways to make their skin visibly brighter. Being consistent with what it was known for, Cetaphil Bright Healthy Radiance is a complete skin brightening product that contains Niacinamide and Sea Daffodil which helps even out skin in a gentle manner.
Products under this category vary from creamy cleansers, and refresh toners, to brightening lotions, as well as body wash. And just recently, the brand introduced next-generation brightening products such as Gentle Renewing Cleanser, Instant Radiance Mask, and Perfecting Serum.
Are you a parent who is looking for a product that will best fit your baby’s skin health? Worry no more, because Cetaphil Baby might be the one you are looking for. Products under this category help emphasize the need to give a baby’s skin gentle skincare products that will help care for their holistic well-being. The Cetaphil Baby product line currently has two ranges: the Classic line and the newly launched Calendula range.
Meanwhile, Cetaphil PRO AD is a dermatologist-approved product that helps relieve dry and itchy skin. This moisturizer protects eczema-prone skin with its two-step regimen suitable for both children and adults.
“What makes Cetaphil a really trusted brand is its partnership with dermatologists,” said Cetaphil Philippines Brand Manager Abe Mationg.
“Cetaphil products are developed by dermatologists, they are dermatologically-tested and they have gone through a lot of clinical studies to ensure that these products are effective for sensitive skin,” Mationg furthered.
Trusted Derma Solutions:
Where and how can I access it?
Proving that it is more than just a pharmacy providing medicines including health care products and everyday needs, the Mercury Drug Corporation agreed to mount booths to feature personal care goods that are credible and trusted by dermatologists.
Skin help is now made convenient with Cetaphil and Mercury Drug store’s Trusted Derma Solutions booth.
“It is a perfect partnership and a step higher approach to serving the needs of the consumers on proper skin care, especially those with sensitive skin, acne-prone skin, uneven skin tone, atopic dermatitis, and other skin issues,” Ponoc said.
To access the kiosks, the public may visit Mercury Drug’s leading branches and look for the “Trusted Derma Solutions” section. If an in-person store visit is out of the choices, interested customers may choose to make use of the Mercury Drug Corporation’s call and delivery services.
One may also opt to utilize the store’s pick-up services for convenience. To avail of this service, just call and place your order via call and have your desired items delivered conveniently to your doorstep.
“Whichever is convenient for you—whether personally visiting the “Trusted Derma Solutions” in Mercury Drug stores or availing of their call-order delivery and call-order pick-up services —skincare help is here with Cetaphil, the most prescribed skincare brand by dermatologists and Pediatricians,” Cetaphil highlighted.
“Let Cetaphil take away your skincare worries so you can focus more on other things in your busy life,” it furthered.
