Daily care for atopic skin should primarily be aimed at protecting the hydrolipidic barrier and maintaining the necessary level of moisture in the skin. Here's how people with atopy should build their care system.
Cleansing
Here are a few basic rules for this step.• Care, even for atopic skin, always begins with cleansing, which should be delicate and gentle. Avoid cleansing sponges and brushes, exfoliating scrubs, alkaline soaps, and harsh surfactants (such as sodium lauryl sulfate).
• Tap water is harsh on sensitive skin and can increase moisture loss, so try to limit the time you spend in the water. Avoid baths with salts and keep the temperature at the correct level. The water temperature should be comfortable, not hot (not higher than 32°C).
• For gentle cleansing of the skin, use products that do not contain soap and aggressive surfactants.
The product should also contain ceramides, which restore the hydrolipidic mantle of the skin.
Lipid-restoring shower cream-gel with ceramides and prebiotic Cerafavit LIBREDERM gently cleanses dry, dehydrated, sensitive skin prone to atopy, peeling, irritation and allergic reactions.
Ceramides (CERAMIDE NP, CERAMIDE AP, CERAMIDE EOP), cholesterol, free fatty acids and phytosphingosine, which are enriched in the composition of the product, restore the protective functions of the skin, and also reduce the feeling of dryness and tightness, and the unique property of the prebiotic to selectively stimulate the growth and metabolic activity of "good" The presence of microorganisms maintains a healthy balance of the skin's microbiome.
Basic Care
Remember that cleansing is always followed by a basic care step. Effective treatment of atopic skin is based on regular and consistent use of moisturizers. It is important to apply moisturizers to the face and body at least twice a day, even during periods of remission of atopic dermatitis. I recommend applying hand cream even more often - after each wash.Use fragrance-free products that contain the following components:
• Vitamin F (linoleic, linolenic and arachidonic acids) promotes rapid restoration of the skin's hydrolipidic barrier and the synthesis of its own ceramides.
• Ceramides and cholesterol stimulate natural skin regeneration, improve biochemical processes.
• SODIUM PCA is a safe and effective natural moisturizer. The basis of NMF (natural moisturizing factor of the skin). Retains moisture in the skin, increases its elasticity, enhances the protective functions of the skin, accelerates cellular metabolism.
Pay attention to the lipid-restoring cream for face and body Cerafavit LIBREDERM with ceramides and prebiotic. This special formula, with a lipid complex (vitamin F, ceramides, cholesterol) and a prebiotic, instantly eliminates dryness and tightness, helps reduce itching and irritation, and supports the skin's protective barrier and microbiome. Importantly, the cream is easy to apply and spread over the skin.
During the summer, when the sun is especially strong, be sure to use SPF products. The sun dries out already thin, sensitive, and atopic skin. Avoid sunbathing during the "dangerous" hours, when the sun's rays are particularly aggressive. Wear lightweight, natural fabrics with long sleeves.
