Aside from the extra sun protection; you also need to make sure your skin is getting vital nourishment and a daily boost to help maintain a glowing complexion.

    Enter Cetaphil: a cult favourite among celebrities and us regular types as well, (if Charlize Theron is in, then we’re in.) The brand’s cleansers and moisturisers boost your skin to help it achieve its optimum condition, while also providing a strong defence against harmful pollutants and moisture loss.

    Every product in this range is pretty budget-friendly, with price tags starting at £8.99. That means, they're not only some of the highest quality products you can add to your make-up bag, but they're also available for less than your weekly coffee budget.

    Easy does it…

    The brilliant thing about all these must-have products is their versatility. Whatever category your skin falls into - oily, normal, dry or sensitive - Dermatologists have developed Cetaphil’s formulas to benefit every skin type.

     Own your summer skin

    1.  A detoxifying, yet gentle cleanser

    Cleansing is a vital stage in caring for your skin; however some cleansers can be harsher than they are helpful. Luckily, the Cetaphil Gentle Cleanser is soap-free and will lift any dirt, excess oils and make-up without leaving your skin feeling irritated or stripped of its natural oils.

    1. A rehydrating moisturiser

    Dry skin can affect us any time of year, with the summer sun and winter winds being as damaging as each other. Using the Cetaphil Moisturising Lotion after clensing will boost your skin’s natural moisture protection system and restore its protective barrier. Plus, it’s formulated to be non-comedogenic, so it won’t block pores.

    1. A nourishing body moisturiser

    You want a fuss-free summer - so having a long-lasting, nourishing body moisturiser in your kit will make the bare arms and legs season a total breeze. Cetaphil’s wonder Moisturising Lotion is definitely a cut above its company.
