Eucerin UltraSENSITIVE Soothing Care Dry skin

Eucerin has developed two ranges for hypersensitive skin - UltraSENSITIVE and AntiREDNESS -with each product addressing the three signs and symptoms that are consistent with the condition: a compromised skin barrier, hyper-reactive sensory fibres and redness, often caused by inflammation. The Eucerin Hypersensitive Skin ranges offer a holistic skin care approach to manage each of the symptoms in this Hypersensitive Skin Triangle.

Eucerin UltraSENSITIVE Soothing Care Dry skin is recommended for hypersensitive skin where the main symptom is an unpleasant skin feel with burning, stinging or itchiness but with no visible signs of redness. Applied after cleansing, it instantly calms and soothes dry, hypersensitive skin on the face, neck and décolleté giving long-lasting skin comfort and protection while special waxes in the cream leave skin feeling nourished and moisturised.

As hypersensitive skin is characterised by a compromised skin barrier this makes the underlying sensory fibres react faster and much stronger to stressors. This irritation causes the unpleasant sensations and redness typical in hypersensitive skin. This rich soothing care formula contains SymSitive*, the first active dermocosmetic ingredient that targets the root cause of skin's hyper-reactivity. SymSitive* effectively acts as a sensitivity regulator, lowering the activation of the sensitive sensory fibres in the epidermis.

Eucerin UltraSENSITIVE Soothing Care Dry skin not only soothes hypersensitive dry skin instantly but, over time, it helps to protect the skin barrier and increase the skin's tolerance threshold.

As with all products in Eucerin's Hypersensitive Skin range, Eucerin UltraSENSITIVE Soothing Care Dry skin uses anti-contamination packaging. It also contains only a limited number of ingredients for more purity and less risk of reaction.

All products in the Eucerin Hypersensitive Skin ranges use anti-contamination packaging to protect the formulas from impurities and oxidation. This packaging addresses three key risk areas: the valves, component connections and the functionality of dispensing. The valves have sterilising filters, the connections are ultra-welded for tightness and the dispenser has an ultra tight tip seal.

Eucerin UltraSENSITIVE Soothing Care Dry skin is a 'pure' formula which means it only contains a limited number of ingredients and is free from preservatives (including parabens), paraffins, fragrances, alcohol, colourants and emulsifiers.

Clinical and dermatological studies prove excellent efficacy and high tolerability on hypersensitive skin.

To assess the efficacy of UltraSENSITIVE Soothing Care Dry skin a self-assessment study was carried out among ≥53 women (19-60 years) with sensitive to very sensitive skin. The product was applied twice daily for 4 weeks in a split face design.

• Improvements in sensitivity and reactivity were reported.
• Other significant improvements included:
• skin comfort
• skin tightness
• dryness
• evenness

• high tolerability
• ideal make-up base
• non-comedogenic
• absorbs quickly
• preservative-free
• paraben-free
• paraffin-free
• fragrance-free
• alcohol-free
• colourant-free
• emulsifier-free

Eucerin UltraSENSITIVE Soothing Care Dry skin is a 'pure' formula which means it only contains a limited number of ingredients and is free from preservatives (including parabens), paraffins, fragrances, alcohol, colourants and emulsifiers.

• For immediate and long-lasting skin comfort, relief from irritation and optimal hydration, apply daily in the morning and/or night on well cleansed face.

As hypersensitive skin typically has a weakened skin barrier it is more prone to irritations and hyper-reactive skin sensory fibres are easily activated by stressors. The purity of the formula and its anti-contamination packaging help to minimise intolerance or allergic reactions.

When skin is sensitive the sensory fibres in the epidermis react faster and much stronger than in normal skin, triggering unpleasant skin sensations. SymSitive* is the first active ingredient to regulate skin sensory fibre activation, soothing very sensitive skin and offering instant relief. Because the skin sensory fibres are less irritable they don’t over-react to stressors. Over time hypersensitive skin's tolerance threshold is increased and hypersensitive skin is calmed.
