Eucerin pH5 Hand Cream for Dry and Sensitive Skin 75ml

Description

Eucerin pH5 Hand Cream is a 75 ml hand cream for dry and sensitive skin. Eucerin’s pH Balance System with a pH5 citrate buffer helps restore the skin’s natural pH, 5% dexpanthenol supports skin regeneration and glycerin moisturises. The cream helps reduce the moisture loss caused by frequent hand washing and disinfection, and protects the skin from irritation.

What is Eucerin pH5 Hand Cream?

This is the hand cream of the Eucerin pH5 range, made for stressed and dry hand skin. The surface of healthy skin is slightly acidic. When hands are washed often, this balance can shift, and the skin becomes dry and sensitive. Eucerin’s pH Balance System contains a pH5 citrate buffer that helps restore the skin’s natural pH value.

The second key ingredient is dexpanthenol, also called provitamin B5, at 5%. Dexpanthenol is a very effective moisturiser: it improves hydration in the outer skin layers and helps reduce water loss through the skin. That keeps the skin soft and elastic. Glycerin binds water and holds it in the skin, smoothing dry skin and giving it long-lasting moisture.

Who it is for

The cream suits anyone whose hands are dry, sensitive or stressed by frequent washing. It is especially welcome for people who wash or disinfect their hands a lot at work, for example in healthcare, catering, kindergartens or beauty salons. It is also a good companion in winter, when cold and dry air make hands rough. You will find more hand care in our hand creams category.

How to use

1. Squeeze a small amount of cream from the tube.
2. Apply it to your hands and massage in gently.
3. Use as often as needed, especially after washing your hands.

The cream leaves hands velvety soft. A good habit is to keep the tube near the sink, so the cream is at hand right after washing. In the evening before bed you can apply a little more, so your hands get calm care overnight.

Why pH matters

The skin surface has a thin protective layer with a slightly acidic pH. This layer helps the skin protect itself. Frequent washing, soaps and disinfectants can shift the balance, and hands become dry and tight. The Eucerin pH5 range is built on the idea that care should help the skin keep its natural pH. The hand cream supports the skin exactly where the strain is greatest.

Eucerin is a German skincare brand owned by Beiersdorf and known for its dermatological products. The pH5 range also includes gentle washing and body care products for dry and sensitive skin.

A small tube, a big help

The 75 ml tube is just the right size for a handbag, desk drawer or car. That way the cream is always there when your hands feel tight after washing. It also makes a practical small gift for a colleague or friend whose work involves frequent hand washing. In winter and during the heating season, one tube could live in every bag.

Eucerin pH5 Hand Cream also suits anyone who already uses the shower gel or body lotion of the same range, because the whole range follows the same principle.

Hand care does not have to take long, and Eucerin pH5 Hand Cream makes it easy. A few seconds of massaging in cream after each wash are enough to keep hands soft and comfortable. The creamy white texture is pleasant.
