The Numis Med pH 5.5 Body Cream is an intensive medical skincare product, generally available in a large 400ml tub for ample use on the body. It is formulated to soothe extremely dry, sensitive, and irritated skin, helping to alleviate symptoms like itching and tension. The pH skin-neutral formula, a core feature of the Numis Med Sensitive line, matches the natural pH of healthy skin, which is crucial for stabilizing the skin's protective acid mantle and strengthening its natural resistance. The rich texture (compared to the lighter lotion) provides deep moisture and protection against dehydration, leaving skin soft, supple, and regenerated.
- pH Balanced: A pH of 5.5 helps maintain the skin's natural barrier function.
- Intensive Moisturization: The rich formula provides deep, long-lasting moisture for up to 48 hours in the urea variant.
- Soothes Itching & Irritation: Designed with the numis® care complex to calm irritated skin and reduce itching.
- Dermatologist Tested: Clinically and dermatologically tested for excellent skin compatibility, receiving the Dermatest 5-star seal.
- Clean Formulation: Vegan, cruelty-free, and free from silicones, parabens, paraffin oils, mineral oils, and dyes.
- SymCalmin® (Hydroxyphenyl Propamidobenzoic Acid): An anti-irritant and anti-itch component that mimics the active soothing ingredients in oats but without the common allergens.
- Hydrolactol®: A complex of ingredients that helps regulate the skin's physiological pH, boost hydration, and decrease water loss.
- Panthenol (Vitamin B5): Easily absorbed, it soothes irritation, promotes skin regeneration, and strengthens the skin's protective barrier.
- Urea: A potent natural moisturizing factor (NMF) that binds water in the skin to ensure intensive and lasting hydration, especially in the more intensive versions of the cream (which may be the 400ml size).
- Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil: An emollient rich in fatty acids and vitamins that protects the skin's surface and helps repair the damaged barrier.
- Cleanse: For optimal results, apply to cleansed skin after showering or bathing.
- Apply Generously: Take a sufficient amount of the body cream and apply it liberally to the desired areas of the body.
- Massage: Gently massage the cream into the skin until it is fully absorbed.
- Frequency: The formula is suitable for daily use, or as often as needed to manage very dry and sensitive skin conditions. It can also be used as a therapeutic companion for conditions like eczema and psoriasis.
