Eucerin Aquaphor Soothing Skin Balm (7ml)

Our skin works hard to protect our bodies, but sometimes it can become very dry, cracked and irritated as a result. It needs SOS care.

Eucerin Aquaphor Soothing Skin Balm gives dry to very dry, cracked and irritated skin the SOS care that it needs. The water-free ointment forms a gentle, semi-occlusive, protective barrier over the skin that supports the natural transfer of water vapour and oxygen to and from the skin, allowing the skin to ‘breathe’ and strengthening its natural protective barrier. The balm is enriched with

Clinical and dermatological studies prove very good efficacy and tolerability even on extremely dry, cracked or irritated skin.

Clinical and dermatological studies on Eucerin Aquaphor demonstrate its effectiveness (both overall and on specific parts of the body) and its skin tolerability (both overall and in terms of being non-comedogenic).

Overall effectiveness

A 10-day trial, conducted in clinical conditions with a sample of 25 people aged between 18 and 50, demonstrated that Eucerin Aquaphor Soothing Skin Balm significantly reduced the time that it took for the skin to regenerate.

Effectiveness in treating dry, rough and cracked skin on the hands

In a further 7-day clinical study, a sample of 17 people applied Eucerin Aquaphor regularly to one hand while leaving the other hand as a control. The study measured the results clinically using a corneometer (a scientific instrument used to measure skin hydration) and collected feedback from the respondents. The results demonstrated that:

• The ointment delivers a statistically significant and noticeable improvement overnight to dry skin on the hands
• With regular use for seven days, the respondents' skin condition continued to improve

Overall tolerability

A tolerability study with a sample of 202 people aged between 17 and 65 showed no allergic reactions on using the product, which demonstrated the excellent tolerability of the product.

Non-comedogenic

In a further test, a sample of 27 people aged between 19 and 55 used the product at least once a day for four weeks. The dermatologists who evaluated the results concluded that the skin balm is non-comedogenic.

• fragrance-free
• preservatives-free
• non-comedogenic

• Apply as frequently as needed on affected areas
• A small fingertip of product is normally enough for both your hands. A medium fingertip of product is about right for problem areas on a baby’s skin, and a slightly larger amount is ideal for each of your feet.
• Massage into your skin using your fingertips. The balm spreads easily as it warms.
• Do not use on open, bleeding or wet wounds. Wait until skin has re-epithelialised before using the product.

The active ingredients work in harmony to support the recovery process. Paraffinum Liquidum and Cera Microcristallina are included in the formula to form a semi-permeable, protective coat over the skin which maintain the natural rate of water vapour loss due to evaporation, this, in turn, keeps the damaged skin moist. With Panthenol to conditions it and Bisabolol to soothe. The inclusion of Glycerin moisturises the skin and strengthens its natural barrier function.
