A rich, fragrance-free balm for very dry skin that feels tight and itchy
SVR Topialyse Intensive Balm is a lipid-replenishing body and face balm for very dry to atopic-prone skin, for babies, children and adults. Its short formula of 20 ingredients combines cotton seed, coconut and babassu oils to restore the lipids that very dry skin lacks, with niacinamide to support the skin barrier and soothe the feeling of irritation. An alpha-glucan oligosaccharide prebiotic helps keep the skin's microbiome balanced, and glycerin draws water into the upper layers. SVR states its effect lasts up to 48 hours, so the skin stays comfortable, supple and less prone to scratching between applications.
The texture
A thick, creamy balm that melts on contact with the skin and spreads more easily than its richness suggests. It leaves a light protective film that is comfortable rather than greasy, and has no added fragrance.
Who it suits
- Very dry, rough skin that feels tight after washing
- Atopic-prone skin in babies, children and adults
- Itchy, uncomfortable patches on the body or face
- Families wanting one large pump bottle for everyone
Worth knowing before you buy: It is a rich balm, so oily or combination skin may find it too heavy on the face. For the daily wash, pair it with a gentle, lipid-replenishing cleanser rather than regular soap, which can undo its work.
How long one bottle lasts
Applied once a day to the whole body of an adult, the 400ml pump lasts about 5 to 6 weeks. For a baby or a few dry areas only, it lasts several months.
