Eczema Restoraderm Daily Soothing Moisturizer

Cetaphil offers several moisturizers, creams, and gels that are formulated for eczema-prone, sensitive skin. We recommend Cetaphil Restoradem Itch Relief Gel as the first step in your eczema routine to help provide fast itch relief, and Cetaphil Restoraderm Flare-up Relief Cream as the second step to repair your skin barrier.

Use Cetaphil Eczema Restoraderm Soothing Moisturizer as the third step to keep your skin hydrated and prolong the time between eczema flare-ups. It is formulated to be gentle and non-irritating, and contains 1% colloidal oatmeal that helps relieve minor skin irritation and itching caused by eczema.

How often you should moisturize eczema-prone skin depends on the severity of your eczema and your skin's needs. In general, it's recommended to moisturize eczema-prone skin at least twice a day, or as often as needed to keep the skin hydrated and comfortable. This may mean applying moisturizer more frequently during periods of eczema flare-ups or dry weather conditions.

Apply the moisturizer liberally to the affected areas of the skin after bathing or showering.

Yes, it is possible to over moisturize eczema-prone skin. While moisturizing helps to hydrate the skin and protect its natural barrier, using too much moisturizer can create an unnatural barrier on the skin that prevents it from breathing properly. This can lead to increased inflammation and irritation, which can make eczema symptoms worse.

It's important to moisturize only when your skin needs it, and choose a moisturizer that is gentle and specifically formulated for eczema-prone skin to not clog pores and irritate your skin with any fragrances further. Cetaphil Eczema Restoraderm Soothing Moisturizer is dermatologist tested, free of fragrances and steroids, hypoallergenic and soothes itchy, irritated skin while boosting hydration and leading to fewer symptom flare-ups over time.

Cetaphil Eczema Restoraderm Soothing Moisturizer is specifically formulated for the body, but it can be used on the face as well. However, it's important to note that the skin on the face is typically more sensitive, so it's recommended to patch test the product on a small area of skin before applying it to larger areas of the face.

Alternatively, Cetaphil offers a range of moisturizers specifically formulated for the face, for dry, sensitive skin.

The Cetaphil Restoraderm range of products work by helping to repair and strengthen your skin barrier, while providing hydration and protecting it against further damage through science-based, clinically proven key ingredients, such as filaggrin technology and Ad-Resyl. Filaggrin technology helps lock in hydration, while Ad-Resyl is specially designed to help restore a damaged skin barrier and support a healthy microbiome. Overall, together with colloidal oatmeal and symcalmin, this formula can help reduce itching and the severity and frequency of your eczema flare-ups.
