Irritated, chapped skin

A classic French ointment for small patches of irritated skin

Boiron Homeoplasmine Cream is a homeopathic ointment registered as a medicine in France, indicated as a supplementary treatment for skin irritations. It combines tinctures of calendula, phytolacca, bryony and Laos benzoin with 4% boric acid in a petrolatum base. The petrolatum forms a protective layer over dry, irritated skin, which is why many French families keep a tube for red, chapped skin around the nose and small dry patches. It comes in an 18g tube for the bag and a 40g tube for the home.

The texture

A translucent, greasy ointment rather than a cream. It melts on contact with the skin and stays on the surface as a protective film, so a thin layer is enough.

Who it suits

  • Small areas of irritated or chapped skin
  • Dry, sore skin around the nose in winter
  • Cracked, chapped skin on the hands
  • Adults and children from 30 months

Worth knowing before you buy: Homeoplasmine contains boric acid. It is not for children under 30 months, not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding, and should not be used on large areas, for long periods, under a dressing, on mucous membranes, or on infected or weeping skin. For wider areas or daily use, a cosmetic repair balm such as Cicaplast Baume B5+ is a better fit.

Which size to choose

The 18g tube fits a pocket or handbag. The 40g tube is the one to keep at home for occasional use on hands and small dry patches.
