KEY BENEFITS OF CREMEDIFY™ BODY CLEANSER
- Targeted Formulation: Cremedify is specifically formulated to address the needs of individuals with dry, itching, psoriasis, atopic dermatitis, and eczema-prone skin. The creamy, non-foaming texture offers gentle cleansing without causing further irritation, making it a suitable choice for sensitive skin.
- Intelligent Lipid Bilayer Technology: This innovative technology enables Cremedify to form a double structural layer on the skin's surface, which effectively regulates water loss, strengthens and regenerates the skin's natural barrier, and ensures long-lasting hydration. This is crucial for maintaining healthy, comfortable skin.
- Barrier Support: Cremedify contains essential fatty acids that mimic and support the epidermal barrier. By reinforcing the skin's natural defenses, Cremedify helps to protect against environmental stressors and minimize the risk of irritation or flare-ups.
- Nourishing Ingredients: Cremedify features powerful, skin-loving ingredients in a harmonious formulation that effectively contribute to overall skin health and vitality.
- Gentle, Non-foaming Cleansing: Traditional body cleansers often produce foam due to harsh surfactants, which can strip the skin of essential moisture and exacerbate dryness and irritation. Cremedify's non-foaming formula ensures a gentle cleansing experience without compromising the skin's integrity.

WHAT IS DRY SKIN?
- Dry skin is characterised by the lack of moisture in the stratum corneum (SC). This is the outermost skin layer.
- Water is the major softener of the skin, and when levels are low, cracks and fissures occur.
- For the skin to appear and feel normal, the water content of the SC must be greater than 10%.
- A disruption or defect in the skin's permeability barrier, allows excessive water to be lost from within the skin into the atmosphere. Referred to as transepidermal water loss (TEWL).
- When skin becomes too dry, the outer skin layers stiffen and may develop cracks. The cracks become fissures in the skin that become irritated, inflamed, and itchy.
CLEANSING CONSIDERATIONS FOR ECZEMA / DRY SKIN WITH BARRIER IMPAIRMENT
Gentle cleansing
The primary objective when cleansing eczema-prone skin is to use a gentle, non-irritating cleanser.
Cremedify is a non-foaming cleanser that effectively removes dirt and impurities without stripping the skin of its natural oils, helping maintain the skin's moisture balance.
Reducing inflammation
Eczema / Atopic Dermatitis is marked by inflammation, which causes redness, itching, and discomfort.
Cremedify contains soothing and nourishing ingredients like ceramides, essential fatty acids, and niacinamide that help reduce inflammation and calm irritated skin.
Strengthening the skin barrier
A weakened skin barrier and dry, dehydrated skin can exacerbate eczema symptoms.
Cremedify's Intelligent Lipid Bilayer technology forms a double structural layer on the skin's surface, helping to regulate water loss, reinforce the skin's natural barrier, and promote long-lasting hydration.
Moisturizing
Eczema-prone skin often suffers from excessive dryness, making it essential to keep the skin hydrated.
Cremedify, with its nourishing ingredients, ensures that the skin remains moisturized, alleviating dryness and itchiness associated with eczema.
Preventing infections
Eczema can sometimes lead to secondary infections due to broken skin or excessive scratching.
By effectively cleansing and providing a soothing effect, Cremedify helps reduce the risk of infections by removing bacteria and reducing the urge to scratch.
Maintaining skin pH
A balanced skin pH is crucial for maintaining healthy skin.
Cremedify is designed to gently cleanse the skin without disrupting its natural pH levels, ensuring that the skin's protective barrier remains intact.
SKIN BARRIER FUNCTION
The 2 PRIMARY FUNCTIONS OF THE skin barrier
- PERMEABILITY BARRIER: Creating a barrier against electrolytes- and moisture loss (TEWL - Trans-epidermal Water loss)
- ANTIMICROBIAL BARRIER: Creating a barrier against the entry of unwanted microorganisms such as allergens and irritants. This function protects the skin against irritant dermatitis and skin infections.
Both of these barriers are localised primarily to the stratum corneum layer of the epidermis (the outermost layer of the skin).
When these barrier functions are impaired, the result is: DRY SKIN

DRY SKINCREMEDIFY™ MOISTURISER CLASSES MODE OF ACTION
TRIPLE PHYSIOLOGIC LIPID-BASED BARRIER REPAIR THERAPY
- Unlike moisturisers, topical triple physiologic lipid-based technology amplifies lipid production and replenishes the lamellar bilayers that are critical for normal barrier function and antimicrobial defence.
- Topically applied physiologic lipids, in contrast to moisturisers, do not form an occlusive layer on the SC surface. Instead, they are quickly absorbed into the underlying nucleated cell layers, where they incorporate into lamellar bodies.
- This Barrier Repair Therapy furthermore reduce inflammation by several mechanisms.
- This leads to a smoother surface with less friction and greater light refraction.
Physiologically replenish the lipid bilayers that are critical for normal barrier function and antimicrobial defence.
EMOLLIENTS
- Emollients soften and smooth the skin.
- They function by filling the gaps between skin cells and replace missing lipids.
- Emollients flatten the curled edges of the individual skin cells (corneocytes).
- This leads to a smoother surface with less friction and greater light refraction.
Fill the gaps between skin cells and replace missing lipids.
HUMECTANTS
- Humectants are water-soluble materials with high water absorption capabilities.
- Draw moisture from the air into the skin and/or draw moisture from the dermis into the epidermis.
- The attract water from the atmosphere and from the underlying dermis into the epidermis (outer skin layer).
- Although humectants may draw water from the environment to help hydrate the skin, in low-humidity conditions they may take water from the deeper epidermis and dermis resulting in increased skin dryness. For this reason, they work better when combined with occlusives.
Draw moisture from the air into the skin and/or draw moisture from the underlying dermis into the epidermis.
OCCLUSIVES
- Occlusives create a protective layer on top of the skin that prevent water loss and “seal” in moisture.
- Occlusives coat the stratum corner (outermost skin layer) to retard transepidermal water loss (TEWL).
- Occlusives is one of the best choices to treat dry skin because it provides an emollient effect as well as decreases TEWL.
- Occlusive agents are only effective while present on the skin; once removed, TEWL returns to the previous level.
