i heard it is good for sensitive skin. Is that true? Please let me know more about the effect. thx

yup! cetaphil is very mild. i haven't use it before but i have heard in the US, a lot of asians are using it and they said it's good. it's mostly recommended by dermatologist as well because it's mild.

I agree, Cetaphil worked for me! My doc was the one who recommended it to me (not a dermatologist though, just a normal GP). I used it by squirting some of it on a small wet hanky then rubbing it gently on my face to wash, under warm running water. And it works! Skin feels very much smoother everytime after that.
But that was last time, now I've turned to St. Ives already - cause I find that Cetaphil is not too suitable for me coz of my damn oily skin, i.e. feel clean and fresh for awhile only then will feel oily again. Damn sayang. But I still do use it quite frequently especially when my skin is distressed (kena sunburn or when it's flaking; when other cleansers seem too harsh and can potentially cause more damage) - it's kinda like a back-up cleanser for me.
Anyhow, do give it a try! No harm in doing so, moreover it's quite cheap! And I definitely agree with what you heard about people are saying that it's awesome for sensitive skin. Good luck!
