Extra Gentle Intensive Moisturising Cream Reviews

As part of the BeautyHeaven trial team I was asked to try out the Dermaveen extra gentle intensive moisturising cream.

This rich cream is parabens, lanolin, fragrances, artificial dyes and alcohol free and claims that it smooths the skin with shea butter for extra hydration. It is advertised that it is a rich, non-greasy cream which is easy to apply and absorb quickly into skin; then it will form a protective moisture layer, replenishes the skin barrier and locks in moisture for smooth skin. The colloidal oatmeal helps to calm the skin.

The packaging comes with a white tube with a green screw lid. The texture is quite thick but spread on skin easily. You only need a small amount then it spreads evenly on my skin, especially my hands, arms, legs and feet. Surprisingly this rich, intensive moisturising cream sinks quickly into my skin and this product hydrates my skin without feeling greasy.

I like the simple packaging of this moisturiser and the fact that it is so gentle and universal for everyone in the family due to the absence of a heavy fragrance. It has a beautiful rich texture, though is only moderately hydrating and quite light on the skin as it sinks in quickly. This would be suited to most skin types except for those with extremely dry skin. You might find you need a little something heavier with more oils. However, I love applying this on after the shower using my Dermaveen Extra Gentle Body Wash. This routine makes my skin feel clean, soothed, soft and balanced. It's great to apply before bed too so you wake up with healthy looking (and feeling!) skin. After about 4-5 hours I do feel the need to reapply in the day time. Leaves no sticky residue on skin... just feels quite airy and matte, but hydrated. Overall a really solid moisturising cream, and I love the fact that it contains shea butter!

Dermaveen extra intensive moisturising cream trial came just at the right time for me. As I have just had a baby and all the hand washing and artificial heating was leaving my skin rather dry and sensitive.

Dermaveen extra intensive moisturising cream comes in a white tub with a Forrest green lid. Rather boring to look at and nothing really fancy or luxurious about the tub or labeling. It’s a massive 450g tub so it will last a while. The product is thick white in texture and has no scent. It’s easy to apply. Simply dip your fingers in and apply. The thing I like best about this product is it’s fast absorbing and has no after greasy residue and your hands aren’t all slippery when you are trying to close the tub lid. I found this was a fantastic product to use not only for my sensitive skin but also my daughter who gets eczema. She had eczema when we first started using this and the body wash but since cutting out other products and only using Dermaveen her eczema spots have disapeared. I’ve also noticed that my skin is a lot more hydrated. I found though I did need to apply twice a day as it wasn’t a long lasting product. But I’m thinking that might be due to it having less chemicals than it’s competitors.

At the end of the day I was very happy with this product and would continue to use on my daughters skin.

Thankyou Beauty Heaven for letting me trial the DermaVeen Extra Gentle Intensive Moisturising Cream. The moisturising cream came in a tub with an easy twist top lid.
It was thick, rich and creamy to the touch, no real fragrance. It really was very thick, at a glance it looked like it would just sit on the skin, but when you put it on it absorbed into the skin very nicely, a little went a long way.
I found it best to use after the shower as it absorbed quicker and was not greasy and it make my skin feel moisturised without putting a lot on. After a couple of days, when I had jumped into bed, I started putting it on the bottom of my feet and the heals, it felt wonderful. I would recommend it for the whole family.
I really like the DermaVeen Extra Gentle Intensive Moisturising Cream as it did not irritate my skin.

This trial had me super excited and hopeful to find my new holy grail product.... and it didn’t disappoint!

As someone who suffers from dermatitis, sensitive and dry patchy skin, this product was an absolute miracle worker.

The product itself came in a generous sized tub, with the typical dermaveen branding. Upon opening the product I was met with a creamy thick body butter style product.

Being a gentle product, there was little scent but also no chemica smell, just a luscious almost milky scent.

The product itself feels a little heavy unpin the initial application, however quickly absorbs into the skin and leaves the skin feeling moisturised for hours.

During my trial I used the product as a body moisturiser, hand cream and a facial moisturiser. I even applied a heavy layer as a deep moisturising mask!

Overall I noticed a dramatic difference with dried skin clearing up on my legs and arms, and coupled with the use of the soap free wash in the same range, my complexion cleared up and my dermatitis on my hands completely healed!

This trial came at the perfect time for me. I suffer from dry sensitive skin on my legs during winter and this year was no except. The skin on my skins becomes dry and cracked and itchy. It's horrible! This product saved them.

The product comes in a generous sized tub and a little goes a long way! So it is immediately great value!

The product is thick and creamy but not too thick and creamy. There is no artificial fragrance and it smells 'clean'. Like I said above a little goes a long way with this product so there is no need to over do it. The product goes on nicely and is easy to rub into the skin, absorbing really well even if you do apply too much. It didn't leave my skin feeling greasy or wet and I could get dressed about a minute after apply which is a huge plus for me!

The best part is that this cream completed fixed the dry, itchy, sensitive skin on my legs. They are now smooth and nourished and feel and look completely normal! I will 100% continue to use this product!

The Dermaveen Extra Gentle Intensive Moisturising Cream is a must have for soothing dry, inflammed, irritated and sensitive skin. It comes in a tub with a screw top lid which isn’t my preference for hygiene reasons but it does mean I don’t waste a drop. I know Dermaveen have an eczema range and also a baby range but the Extra Gentle Intensive Moisturising Cream has been a wonderful solution to most skin concerns in my family. My toddler gets eczema and a little nappy radh at times and this provides instant relief. He will actually ask for cream when he’s looking for relief. Personally I’m prone to seasonal allergies and I find the cream very soothing after I’ve broken out in rash from handling hay or being in a dusty environment. It reduces redness and stops me from feeling itchy, it’s also great after shaving and stops my legs from looking dry and scaly.

I was very excited to try out this Dermaveen moisturiser as having just come through winter my poor eczema prone skin was getting a bit worse for wear.
I suffer from very sensitive, itchy skin practically all over my body and when it starts to dry out over winter it becomes almost unbearable. This moisturiser is so lovely and thick but sinks into the skin really well without leaving you feeling like a greasy mess after it's applied.
I've been applying it onto my entire body after showering almost every day and it's stopped me doing the dreaded 'itchy dance' I usually start doing once my skins starts to dry out.
The scent is only very subtle so if you are like me and don't really like strong smells then you will find this one isn't overpowering at all and you hardly notice it once it sinks into the skin.
I would definitely recommend this moisturiser to anyone with sensitive or ezcema/dermatitis prone skin.

My skin has always been a nightmare. I have super reactive skin that is riddled with eczema and is always itchy or sore. So, I was lucky to be included in Beauty Heaven's Trial Team for Dermaveen's Extra Gentle Intensive Moisturising Cream. It’s packaged in a 450g tub, which is pretty useful as I tend to go though creams by the bucket-load. It doesn’t have a particularly strong scent, just that typical oatmeal/moisturiser scent that all Dermaveen products have.

The cream itself is rich and silky. I found it absorbs quickly, and doesn’t leave the skin feeling greasy, which is really good. A lot of intensive creams can be very greasy, which tends to mark clothes and linen (I moisturise with an intensive cream both morning and night due to my eczema). I even tired this on my face, and I didn’t break out, which was good. However, I noticed on more with my face, than with my body, that after a couple of hours, my skin started to feel a bit dry again. Perhaps, it just isn’t really suited to being used as a face cream, or my skin is just THAT dry...it is the end of winter after all.
