This ultra-soothing and ultra-nourishing balm is designed to intensely act on the symptoms of very dry and atopic skin by stopping the itch and durably restoring the skin barrier.
Key Benefits:
- Stops Itching & Soothes Irritation: Contains the dermatological active ingredient PEA (Palmitamide MEA) which quickly relieves itching and reduces the urge to scratch.
- Intensely Nourishes & Restores Lipids: The exclusive Lipigenium™ technology (a complex of bio-lipids like Ceramides, Cholesterol, and Phytosphingosine) biologically stimulates the synthesis of lipids and proteins to durably reconstruct the skin barrier.
- Prevents Flare-Ups (Eczema): The patented Skin Barrier Therapy™ complex limits the adhesion and proliferation of Staphylococcus aureus (a bacteria that can aggravate atopic skin), helping to space out periods of dryness and irritation.
- Long-Lasting Comfort: Makes the skin feel immediately more comfortable, stronger, and more resistant to external irritants.
- High Tolerance: Unfragranced, non-sticky, non-greasy, instantly absorbed, and suitable for the whole family (adults, children, and babies, excluding premature infants). It is often recognized by the National Eczema Association.
