Eucerin pH5 Hand Cream for Dry and Sensitive Skin 75ml

Description

Dry and sensitive skin is easily irritated by various environmental factors, such as frequent washing, temperature fluctuations and weather conditions, making it even more sensitive. Simply moisturising the skin lightly isn’t enough to relieve sensitivity.
Eucerin’s pH5 hand cream is specifically developed to increase the resilience of dry, sensitive hand skin and prevent dryness. This Eucerin product has a special pH-balancing effect thanks to a citrate buffer derived from citric acid, which restores the skin’s optimal pH and helps maintain it.
The skin’s protective acidic, or hydrolipidic, layer is only mildly acidic. It’s important for its pH to stay within the range of 5.4-5.9, since this activates protective enzymes that regulate bacterial growth and promote the shedding of dead skin cells. In sensitive skin, this layer is no longer acidic, disrupting the skin’s natural defences. A citrate buffer solution with a pH of 5 helps restore and maintain the skin’s natural pH, supporting enzyme activation and protecting skin from irritants.
The cream’s formula also includes the active ingredient dexpanthenol, known for its restorative, wound-healing properties. Dexpanthenol, derived from pantothenic acid (Vitamin B5), is a very powerful moisturiser. It improves the moisture content of the skin’s outer layers and helps reduce transepidermal water loss. Dexpanthenol keeps skin soft and elastic. It strengthens the skin’s natural defence mechanisms and reduces sensitivity. It also stimulates skin renewal and repair. Regular use has been proven to noticeably relieve symptoms of skin irritation, such as dryness, roughness, flaking and redness.
Glycerine, also included in the formula, is a humectant that helps skin bind and retain water. Glycerine has a very effective moisturising action – it smooths dry skin and provides long-lasting protection and care. Glycerine is a colourless, odourless and non-toxic compound.
This hand cream helps reduce moisture loss, protects skin from irritation and helps wounds heal. Use as often as needed to keep hands soft and smooth.
