Beautiful and smooth facial skin is not only the ultimate dream of every woman, it is also an indicator of her health. Very often, representatives of the fair sex are overwhelmed in search of an effective cream, but it would be worth starting with their general health. After all, moisturized and beautiful skin is the result of the coordinated work of all internal organs, an active lifestyle, proper nutrition and healthy sleep. To externally maintain the skin in a healthy state, you can use creams, but they should be selected by a highly qualified cosmetologist or dermatologist. A new product on the cosmetology market is Emolium cream, which has already proven its effectiveness. How to use this cream correctly will be discussed in this publication.

What kind of cream is this?

Emolium cream is a special therapeutic and cosmetic liniment, which is intended for the care of dry skin of the face and body. Dry skin can occur for various reasons, but Emolium cream is effective regardless of the cause of this dermatological problem. This is an emollient of natural origin that not only eliminates dryness, but also effectively fights irritation and inflammation of the dermis. This liniment is a medicinal drug, so you can buy it at any pharmacy. The manufacturer presented a series of creams: Emolium, Emolium special and Emolium triactive. Which one is better should be decided not by the buyer, but by a dermatologist or cosmetologist, taking into account the dermatological problem that needs to be solved.

This cream is intended for external use. You can buy it in the pharmacy chain in the form of an ointment or emulsion. The cream is packaged in 75 ml packages, and the emulsion is packaged in 200 ml bottles. The product is applied in a thin layer to the affected area and is very quickly absorbed into the skin, leaving no marks on clothing. You can also highlight the following advantages of this drug:

• hypoallergenic;
• high efficiency;
• natural basis of active ingredients;
• absence of dyes, fragrances and synthetic ingredients;
• versatility.

Interesting to know! Numerous international studies have confirmed the safety of using this cream even in newborns. But before use, it is still recommended to consult an experienced dermatologist or cosmetologist.

The only contraindication for use is individual sensitivity to the components of the drug.

Liniment composition

The peculiarity of preparing emollient products is that by their nature they are “oil in water”. In addition to these components, the cream contains:

• shea butter;
• macadamia fruit oil extract;
• hyaluronic acid;
• liquid paraffin;
• urea;
• triglycerols of caprylic and capric acid.

Shea butter is a natural component that is included in most modern cosmetic preparations. Thanks to its rich composition, it perfectly nourishes the upper layers of the epidermis, eliminates redness and flaking, improves skin condition and activates regeneration processes in it.

Macadamia nuts are the fruits of the tree of the same name, which are rich in substances such as phytosterol and lecithin. Perfectly relieves tightness and flaking of the skin, nourishes dermal cells, and restores skin turgor.

Hyaluronic acid is a natural component that is part of the epidermis and is responsible for its hydration. When there is a deficiency of this substance in the body, the skin becomes dry and flabby. To replenish its reserves, the cream contains an ingredient - sodium hyaluronate, which actively moisturizes the skin.

Liquid paraffin is responsible for retaining moisture in the upper layers of the skin. Unsaturated hydrocarbons, distributed in a thin layer on the skin, prevent moisture loss from dermal cells.

Urea is a natural skin moisturizer that works in tandem with lactic acid. Thanks to urea, keratin fibers bind to moisture and retain it, like a foam sponge. Thanks to this process, the natural elasticity of the skin is restored, and the water balance is maintained at the required level. And the antibacterial properties of this substance prevent the appearance of inflammatory and purulent rashes on the skin. Acid triglycerides replenish the supply of lipids in the intercellular space, prevent moisture loss and provide the necessary protection to the upper layer of the dermis.

Considering the rich composition of the cream and the wide range of applications, this cream is used to treat:

• atopic dermatitis;
• diaper rash in infants;
• dermatitis;
• dry layers of surface epithelium;
• cracks in the skin;
• psoriatic plaques.

How to use it?

According to the instructions for use, Emolium cream is approved for use even in pediatrics, for newborns and infants older than one month. Apply a small amount of cream to cleansed body skin, spreading it in a thin layer on the surface. In order for the therapeutic effect to be better, it is necessary to leave the lubricated part of the body for several minutes so that the product is completely absorbed into the skin. Emolium cream can also be used under a diaper, like a regular baby cream.

For adult patients, the recommendations do not change. After cleansing the skin (arms, legs, face) from dust and sweat, apply the cream in a thin layer 2-3 times a day. During pregnancy, you can use a cream to combat dry skin, or you can use an emulsion to cleanse and care for the skin at the same time.

Advice! When treating cracked heels or hands, it is recommended to apply liniment to the affected areas, wearing special cotton socks or gloves at night to enhance the effect.

Many patients wonder what is better, emulsion or cream. The answer to this question can be given by a highly qualified dermatologist, who recommends using the form of the drug that is necessary in a particular clinical case. In more advanced cases, it is recommended to use ointment; to maintain healthy skin, it is enough to use the emulsion while bathing.

An equally frequent question from patients is whether this liniment is hormonal or not. There is no need to be afraid, because Emolium cream has a natural base and does not contain hormonal components. Therefore, it is approved for use even during pregnancy, lactation and for caring for the baby’s sensitive skin. When treating atopic dermatitis or psoriasis, your doctor may recommend a different method of application, frequency and duration.

Possible side effects

Numerous positive reviews indicate that Emolium cream is well tolerated by patients of all age categories. But, given the rich natural composition, before the first application you should not neglect the sensitivity test. It is easier to prevent any illness or allergic reaction than to treat the consequences of the allergy for a long time.

Important! Before using any product for the purpose of treating and caring for the skin, you should consult with an experienced doctor.

Apply a cream the size of a match head to a small area of ​​skin, rub it in and monitor the condition of the dermis. For the test, it is best to apply the cream to the inner surface of the forearm, where the skin is delicate, thin and sensitive. If after 24 hours no unwanted rash, hyperemia or itching appears, the cream can be used on other parts of the body.

If undesirable reactions occur, in case of individual hypersensitivity, it is necessary:

• stop using the ointment;
• inform your doctor about this;
• take an antihistamine tablet (Loratadine, Diazolin, Suprastin) or sorbent drug (Sorbex, Enterosgel, Activated carbon).

Where can I buy?

Emolium cream can be bought at a pharmacy; the price for a package of this liniment ranges from 400 to 600 rubles. The tube contains 75 ml of liniment. After use, the remains of the cream can still be stored for 2 years, without loss of medicinal properties.
