QV Ceramides Range
QV Ceramides may be worth considering if you want a simple fragrance-free moisturising routine designed to support the skin barrier.
Why ceramides?
Ceramides are lipids naturally found in the outer layer of the skin.
They help support the skin barrier and reduce moisture loss.
QV Ceramides products use a blend of three ceramides to help support dry and sensitive skin.
Lotion or cream?
QV Ceramides Lotion
A lighter option for everyday hydration.
It can be used on the face and body.
QV Ceramides Cream
A richer option when skin is very dry or when
you prefer a heavier moisturiser.
You may not need both. Choose the texture that feels easiest and most comfortable for you to use regularly.
Functional capacity
Skin care can become harder when there are too many separate products, decisions and steps.
A moisturiser that can be used on both the face and body may reduce decisions, shopping and products to keep track of.
Choosing a simple lotion or cream may also make skin care easier to repeat on lower-capacity days.
ALPIMS idea: use the fewest products that comfortably meet your needs.
Sensitive skin
QV Ceramides Lotion is fragrance-free, colour-free, pH balanced and dermatologically tested.
It is designed for dry and sensitive skin and is also described by QV as suitable for eczema-prone and acne-prone skin.
Fragrance-free does not mean every product will suit every person, so individual tolerance still matters.
What about QV Dermcare?
QV Ceramides and QV Dermcare are related, but they are not exactly the same range.
QV Ceramides is a ceramide skin-care range for dry and sensitive skin.
QV Dermcare includes more specialised products for eczema-prone skin, including an eczema daily cream and wash with ceramides.
Things to know
Texture matters too. Some people find a light lotion easier to tolerate, while others prefer a richer cream.
If your skin is very reactive, consider introducing one new product at a time.
Check the current ingredient list before buying, particularly if you have known allergies or ingredient sensitivities.
