Common questions

Is cetaphil healthy?

cetaphil scores 24/100 on Tallow — our avoid band. That number comes from what is on the label: the ingredients, how processed it is, and what it is packaged in. It is not a verdict on your diet — Tallow does not weigh calories, portion size or how often you eat it, so a high score means the ingredients are clean, not that the food is unlimited.

What is in cetaphil?

cetaphil lists 23 ingredients, starting with Water, Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil, Sorbitol, Isopropyl Palmitate and Octyldodecanol. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

Does cetaphil contain seed oils?

No. Nothing in cetaphil’s ingredient list matches a seed oil — canola, soybean, corn, cottonseed, grapeseed, sunflower, safflower, rice bran or peanut oil, or an unspecified "vegetable oil".

How processed is cetaphil?

We don’t have a NOVA classification on file for cetaphil yet, so the processing axis scores it neutrally.

How does cetaphil compare to other skin care?

At 24/100 cetaphil scores worse than most skin care we have scored. A higher-scoring option in skin care is Hanasia Aloe Vera Drink at 100/100.

Is cetaphil organic?

cetaphil is not certified organic in our data.

Has cetaphil been lab tested?

Not yet. No independent lab has published results for cetaphil, so its score is based on its ingredient list, processing and packaging alone.
