Emollient cream

The Xérodiane Cera+ emollient cream can be used from birth.

Zemea is a natural moisturizing ingredient derived from corn that helps the skin retain water. In the Xérodiane Cera+ emollient cream, it is combined with glycerin to create a powerful duo: together, they capture and lock water in the skin, providing long-lasting hydration, reducing dryness and tightness, while leaving the skin soft, comfortable, and protected.

To promote skin hydration by acting on the microbiome, the Xérodiane Cera+ emollient cream contains Aquabiome, a natural prebiotic derived from agave and chicory. It activates skin bacteria that directly contribute to water retention, thereby enhancing the skin’s natural hydration mechanisms. This action provides immediate and long-lasting hydration, shown to be more effective than hyaluronic acid alone, while maintaining a balanced and healthy skin microbiome.

The combination of phytosphingosine and vitamin PP has been included in the Xérodiane Cera+ emollient cream to relieve feelings of tightness and itching. Phytosphingosine, naturally present in the skin, helps strengthen the skin barrier and soothe, while vitamin PP (niacinamide) helps calm irritation and improve overall skin comfort. Together, these two actives provide enhanced anti-itch action, making them suitable for dry to very dry skin.

The Xérodiane Cera+ emollient cream does not contain urea in order to maintain optimal tolerance, especially for very dry, sensitive skin, including that of infants. Urea is a moisturizing ingredient, but even at low concentrations, it can sometimes cause stinging or discomfort on fragile skin. The formula instead relies on gentle and effective actives, notably Physiofilag, which stimulates the skin’s natural synthesis of NMF (Natural Moisturizing Factors), including urea naturally produced by the skin. This way, the skin benefits from the advantages of urea without it being added directly, ensuring hydration, comfort, and optimal tolerance.

The Xérodiane Cera+ emollient cream and the Xérodiane Cera+ nourishing re-lipidating balm share similar goals—hydrating, nourishing, and protecting dry skin—but they differ in richness, active ingredient concentration, and intended use.

The Xérodiane Cera+ emollient cream is lighter. It is ideal for dry to very dry skin that needs daily, light hydration, for easy application over the whole body, even for infants, or for those who prefer a less rich texture.

The Xérodiane Cera+ nourishing re-lipidating balm, on the other hand, is richer and more concentrated: it combines all known means to maintain hydration for up to 72 hours, intensely strengthens the skin barrier, nourishes with Inca Inchi oil, stimulates the natural synthesis of NMF and hyaluronic acid through Physiofilag, acts on the microbiome via Aquabiome, and has an anti-itch effect. It is particularly recommended for very dry to extremely dry skin, or during cold, windy, or very dry conditions, and is suitable for adults and children from birth.

In summary: the Xérodiane Cera+ emollient cream is suitable for light daily use with maximum tolerance, while the Xérodiane Cera+ nourishing re-lipidating balm is richer and more restorative, for situations where the skin needs enhanced hydration and protection.

The Xérodiane Cera+ emollient cream can be applied to the entire body and face. Its lightweight texture and well-tolerated formula allow for daily use on all areas, including the most sensitive.

It is suitable for overall application to hydrate and maintain skin comfort, as well as targeted use on drier areas (legs, arms, elbows, etc.) as needed.

No. The Xérodiane Cera+ emollient cream has been formulated to provide a light and comfortable texture that absorbs quickly after application. It does not leave a greasy film or sticky feeling on the skin, allowing you to dress immediately afterward, while ensuring effective and long-lasting hydration.

No. The Xérodiane Cera+ emollient cream is fragrance-free.
This choice helps minimize the risk of irritation or skin reactions, especially for dry, sensitive, or fragile skin. The absence of fragrance ensures better tolerance, including for daily use and on the most delicate areas.
