Eczema & moisturizing

Moisturizing plays a fundamental role in fighting eczema. This type of skincare should be applied daily.

Between flare-ups

Skin affected by eczema/dermatitis is fragile and highly reactive: allergens, irritants, cold… Many external agents can trigger a reaction.

Also, moisturizing your skin daily strengthen its barrier function, with 2 main consequences: 

  • Spacing flare-ups, thus constituting a way to lengthen the periods of remission
  • Reducing the intensity of inflammatory outbreaks

In the case of atopic skin, more permeable than normal skin, and often dry to very dry, hydration is even more essential to compensate for the lack of water and lipids that characterize it.

During a flare up

If corticosteroid-based creams are the treatment preferred by dermatologists during a flare-up, they are usually prescribed in combination with moisturizing and emollient care to:

  • Soothe the sensations of itching
  • Restore the barrier function of the skin to protect it from irritation
  • Fight against its dryness

How to use

The application of a moisturizer must be systematic and daily to increase its impact. The application of highly moisturizing products should be preferred, ideally in the evening after a shower. If you feel the need, there is no contraindication to moisturize your skin several times a day.

Skintifique : Another idea for moisturizing

In addition to banning the use of controversial ingredients, Skintifique has decided to rely only on biological mechanisms to ensure perfect skin hydration. Excluding any occlusion process or using petrochemicals, its products guarantee superior hydration aimed exclusively at improving the functioning of the skin thanks to science.

Eczema/Dermatitis Pack: 24H moisturizing

  • Acting as a reservoir for active ingredients, ACTIVIFIQUE™ makes possible an exceptional concentration of Vegetable Glycerin: 2 to 6x more than other moisturizing creams using this active ingredient. It is the reservoir that makes the long-lasting action of the Hydrating Gel possible.
  • Above all, ACTIVIFIQUE™ interprets the signals sent by the skin when it is dehydrated or irritated. The release of Vegetable Glycerin is done gradually and only when the skin needs it, increasing the benefits on the treated area and lengthening the duration of its effectiveness.
