    My holy grail moisturiser

    So in the very dry months, my skin becomes a nightmare and has many dry patches and scaly bits where skin can just come off very easily due to dehydration. However, this moisturiser saves me, and it brings back moisture to my skin, leaving it soft and moisturised and not dry and scaly. It's super affordable, doesn't smell too strong and it's easily absorbed. I don't flare up at all, which is a miracle as I have sensitive skin.

    Simple and gentle.

    The QV Intensive range is a Godsend when my supplies of U.S sourced CeraVe have depleted.

    As an eczema sufferer, this cream has provided me with much relief at night and low humidity.

    The glycerine is a fabulous humectant while the paraffin is richly occlusive.

    I find it perfect to use post wet wrap therapy as it works wonders for my arms, legs and back.

    The lack of fragrance and other harsh ingredients means my skin doesn't angrily react.

    However, I will say I find the cream more suited to either colder months or days with low humidity as the texture of the cream is on the heavier side and greasy due the included paraffin.

    The price point is just right with the pump pack offering really good value for money.

    I can't wait to try QV Intensive with added ceramides as that moisturiser might be on par with CeraVe.

    Any Tips?: 
    Keep on edge of shower or bath and apply directly on wet skin to minimise transepidermal water loss.

    Try to keep your skin's contact with water to a minimum.

    If indoors, use a cool mist humidifier combined with wet wrap therapy and QV Intensive.

    It really works!

    I recently moved house, and did lots of packing and cleaning. My hands dried out and ended up cracking. They were really sore. I applied this product at night and placed cotton gloves on, the next day my hands were noticeably less dry. I did the same thing the next night and I haven’t looked back. This product is as intensive as it says it is, but is gentle at the same time.

    My 7 month old son has very dry and sensitive skin, and it is gentle enough to use on him. I am very impressed.

    Any Tips?: 
    Apply at night time before bed to avoid washing it off. Use cotton gloves to avoid getting the cream everywhere as it is quite thick.
    Ideal For...: 
    Extremely dry skin.
    Babies.
    Sensitive skin.
    Everyone!!

    Minimized Itch and Eczema Flares

    I bought this for my nephew when he was a toddler because he has eczema prone skin that he would itch till it scratched and bled. Now, I know theres a QV kid range but my pharmacy didn't carry the kid range at that time and I was desperate to help my nephew.

    Well long story short, once we switched him over to a QV cleanser and this intensive moisturiser, his skin calmed down and he didn't get as many eczema flares as before. I tried to use it on my own skin but unfortunately it didn't really make a difference to my eczema prone itchy flaky skin. Its funny how a product can work on some people but not others.

    I still think skincare is trial and error so give this product a try if you have dry, excema prone skin. Who knows - it might work for you like it did for my nephew.

    Very hydrating

    I have very dry skin in general and have eczema. In winter especially it can get so dry my skin just looks like crocodile skin. I used to use QV as a kid and recently tried this new intense formula as my eczema was starting to flare up again. I use it not just on my eczema but all over my body. It goes on nicely, doesn't irritate the eczema, very soothing and smells pleasant. I have tried other types of moisturisers and it has stung my skin a little as I have very sensitive skin.

    This is probably one of the best moisturisers out there for those who have very dry skin like mine.

    Any Tips?: 
    Use straight after showering before allowing skin to dry.
    Ideal For...: 
    Very dry skin and problem skin.

    Not very exfoliating

    I’m a bit divided with this product, I don’t hate it, but I don’t love it either. When I think of gentle exfoliation, I imagine a very fine grit. This is the opposite.
