Suu Balm has issued a consumer safety alert following the detection of counterfeit versions of its best-selling Rapid Itch Relief Ceramide Moisturiser being sold in Malaysia through unauthorised sellers on online marketplace platforms.

The brand has received feedback from Malaysian consumers who unknowingly purchased these products and experienced increased skin sensitivity after use. Suu Balm is currently working closely with relevant authorities and e-commerce platforms to investigate and remove counterfeit listings.

Trusted for Sensitive Skin, but Only When It’s Authentic

Suu Balm is dermatologist-developed at the National Skin Centre, Singapore, and is widely used across the region for fast itch relief and skin barrier support.

Authentic products are manufactured under strict quality control standards and use premium ingredients, including skin-identical ceramides.

“Suu Balm is trusted by many consumers across Southeast Asia. Unfortunately, like many successful brands, we are seeing counterfeit products entering the market. These products are often sold at prices that are too good to be true, and consumers should be cautious by also checking the product reviews to ensure legitimacy. Authentic formulations use high-quality ingredients that are unlikely to be replicated in counterfeit versions,” said Jason Humphries, co-founder of Suu Balm.

“We strongly urge consumers in Malaysia to purchase only from authorised sellers to ensure product safety and effectiveness,” added John O’Shea, co-founder of Suu Balm.
