Care of severe skin dryness flare-ups
Relief of itching sensations in skin prone to atopic eczema. Soothes and calms redness and irritation and relieves itchy sensory sensations, reducing the need to scratch.
Calming dry skin cream
Attack treatment for severe dry skin flare-ups
Skin prone to atopic eczema can be dry, prone to scratching and itchy sensations. The itchy sensation causes the need to scratch, which triggers the itch-scratch cycle. The symptoms worsen and can even prevent sleep and have a negative impact on the quality of life.
EUCERIN AtopiControl Intensive Calming Cream has been specially formulated to intensively relieve skin prone to atopic eczema. The formula contains a unique complex of active ingredients: soothing Licochalcone A, anti-bacterial Decandiol and anti-irritant and cooling Menthoxypropandiol (MPD). This complex, combined with a high concentration of ceramides, strengthens the skin barrier, reduces dryness and relieves itching sensations, thus reducing the need to scratch.
Fragrance-free, Intensive Calming Cream can be applied as often as needed to affected areas and has been shown to improve the quality of sleep and quality of life for people with eczema-prone skin. Suitable for adults, children and babies from 4 weeks.
Clinical and dermatological studies
Very good efficacy and tolerance on skin prone to atopic eczema.
Main findings
In a use test conducted on EUCERIN AtopiControl Intensive Calming Cream used in addition to EUCERIN AtopiControl Calming Body Emollient by a sample of 144 men and women, all over 30 years of age, with mild to moderate atopic dermatitis. After four weeks of daily use, they reported the following results:
Improved quality of life
Before the trial, 92% of the sample agreed that their atopic skin affected their quality of life. After four weeks of using the AtopiControl products, only 38% of the sample agreed that their skin type affected their quality of life. From this, we can deduce that, following the use of the products, 54% of the sample felt an improvement in their quality of life.

How they work together
Eucerin AtopiControl Intensive Calming Cream and Eucerin AtopiControl Anti-Itch Spray have been specially formulated with active ingredients that soothe itchy skin sensations.
Eucerin AtopiControl Intensive Calming Cream contains menthoxypropanediol and decanediol to calm and soothe the skin during flare-ups of atopic dermatitis:
Extracted from menthol, menthoxypropanediol activates the natural cooling receptors (called TRPM8) present in the nerve endings of the skin. The resulting cooling sensation reduces itching.
The antibacterial decanediol fights Stapphylococcus Aureus bacteria associated with atopic dermatitis.
The formula also contains the unique complex of active ingredients used in the range's basic daily care products:
Licochalcone A: a liquorice extract that soothes the skin and reduces redness
Ceramides: to strengthen the skin's barrier function
The main active ingredients in Eucerin AtopiControl Anti-Itch Spray are menthoxypropanediol, SymSitive* and Laureth-9 :
As in the Intensive Calming Cream, menthoxypropanediol refreshes the skin and acts on a sensory level to reduce itching sensations
SymSitive* calms the skin, stops tingling and reduces redness. It does this by blocking an itch-related receptor known as TRPV1 (transient receptor potential vanilloid 1) and calming the skin's nervous system.
Laureth-9 soothes the skin by reducing itch signals in the cells of the epidermis (the top layers of the skin). It does this by inhibiting the release of TSLP (Thymic Storal Lymphoietin), an itch mediator created by keratinocytes (a type of epidermal cell).
In addition to being used to calm the skin during an outbreak, the spray can also be used between outbreaks when the skin is a little itchy. The product should not be used on open wounds.
