Dry Skin or Eczema? Try Eucerin Calming Creme

The Eucerin line of skin care products has long been recommended by physicians and dermatologists for use in the treatment of dry skin and eczema. Eucerin keeps its skin care products free from extraneous ingredients and fragrances, resulting in moisturizing lotions, skin creams and ointments that are far better for dry, sensitive and damaged skin.

Despite the fact that the original Eucerin crème is highly effective in the treatment of dry skin and skin conditions such as eczema, some consumers have turned away from the product because of its texture. Original Eucerin Crème is a very thick, heavy, and somewhat greasy crème that is similar to petroleum jelly. Original Eucerin works very well, but is difficult to spread over the skin and leaves the skin feeling greasy until the product is absorbed. Absorption can take hours. This is highly effective in treating dry skin and eczema, therefore original Eucerin a good night-time product, but is less comfortable during active waking hours of the day.

Beiersdorf, Incorporated, the makers of Eucerin, apparently realized they were losing consumers to less heavy, more user-friendly skin care products and introduced a version of the Original Eucerin Crème in a lighter, more spread-able lotion version. A very good skin care product, the lotion is better than many other dry skin lotions on the market, but its effects did not last as long as the crème and so the lotion performed somewhat less admirably.

Devoted to creating great quality, affordable skin care products, Beiersdorf, Inc. persisted and developed a wider Eucerin product line to fill in the gaps in their consumer market share. Thus Eucerin released a new product last year, Eucerin Calming Crème.

Moisturizing daily is the best prevention for eczema flare-ups.
