- Contains 10.5% light liquid paraffin replacing lost skin oils, increasing skinsurface lipids (SSL)

Cetraben can be used on both face and body1
Not all emollients are the same. Read more about the potential for ocular toxicity in an article published by Eye, on Nature’s website.
Whilst contact with the eyes should be avoided1, the Cetraben range has been scientifically validated as being non-irritant to the eyes2, with no reports of causing ocular toxicity, and is suitable for use on both the face and the body.3
