A cooling gel-cream that comforts very dry, uncomfortable skin fast
Bioderma Atoderm Intensive Gel-Cream is a soothing face and body care for very dry, irritated and sensitive skin, for infants, children and adults. Very dry skin goes through phases of intense dryness, redness and a feeling of discomfort; this gel-cream brings immediate freshness and lasting comfort. Its Skin Barrier Therapy approach, with niacinamide, helps the skin make its own lipids again to rebuild its barrier, while Bioderma's D.A.F. patent raises the skin's tolerance threshold. Glycerin keeps the skin hydrated for 24 hours.
The texture
A light, fresh gel-cream that feels cool on hot, uncomfortable skin, spreads quickly over large areas and absorbs in seconds without a sticky or greasy film, so you can dress straight away. It is unscented.
Who it suits
- Very dry skin with a feeling of discomfort and redness
- Very dry, sensitive skin in babies, children and adults
- Hot, uncomfortable skin that needs quick comfort
- People who dislike rich, greasy balms
Worth knowing before you buy: it is lighter than a balm, so on very rough, cracked areas in winter a richer texture may feel more comforting. It is not suitable for premature babies.
How long one bottle lasts
With the 3-6-9 method once a day, the 500ml pump lasts about five to six weeks for an adult and three to four months for a baby; the 200ml tube lasts about three weeks for an adult.
