To help manage your problem dry and sensitive skin, it is important that you find a routine that works for you and your skin. Our new Dry Skin Cream is suitable for people over the age of 3 years and has proven effective to sooth and hydrate very dry and sensitive skin.

The Dry Skin Cream is easy to apply. We would recommend applying to the skin as often as required or directed by your pharmacist or GP, to ensure continued hydration throughout the day. Apply liberally to clean skin focusing on areas of dryness, ensuring that the area is well covered. Avoid rubbing the cream vigorously as this could trigger itching, creating more heat in the skin.

Our new Dry Skin Cream is available from Superdrug, leading independent pharmacies and Amazon.

Yes it is. All Cuticura Mildly Medicated products are dermatologically tested and approved. To achieve this accreditation, our products are submitted to an independent testing house where they undertake a 96-hour patch test on a panel of adult men and women with self-assessed sensitive skin. The test is designed to investigate the skin irritation potential of a product. Once the test has been completed by the panel, all results are reviewed and validated by an independent dermatologist and are only approved when they are proven to be safe to use on your skin.

Cuticura Mildly Medicated products are available at Boots, Amazon and all leading supermarket and independent pharmacies.

Cuticura Mildly Medicated Powder is suitable for the entire family, including babies. Our Cuticura Mildly Medicated Talc has been formulated to be gentle on skin even for people with dry skin conditions.

When your skin is dry and itchy, cracked or irritated, we would recommend using Cuticura Mildly Medicated Powder as a once or twice a day treatment.

Tip: If you like to use a moisturiser on that part of your body that is irritated, we recommend you use the Mildly Medicated powder approximately 30 minutes away from your moisturiser or when it’s been fully absorbed into your skin.

Unlike other body powders on the market, our Cuticura Mildly Medicated has a unique blend of natural anti-irritant and skin healing ingredients that are proven to relieve and soothe skin itching, redness, soreness as well as improve the appearance of their skin.

In an independent consumer trial involving 100 men and women with eczema-prone skin:

• 87% saw an improvement in their skin in 2 weeks after using the Mildly Medicated powder
• 85% believed their skin felt soothed after using the Mildly Medicated powder
• 80% experienced relief from itchiness
• 84% believed their skin looked healthier after using the Mildly Medicated powder

You might think ‘why should I put a dry product on my already dry skin? We know it’s against your instinct, but be sure that the ingredients in our formulation work best in a powder form. The Mildly Medicated powder is specifically designed to prevent skin from drying out – so it has an ability to absorb excess moisture, yet aid the natural moisture retention at the same time, thanks to our active ingredient Allantoin.
