Bepanthene SensiDaily is a daily emollient cream for body and face, in a 400ml package, that provides effective and long-lasting hydration of atopic skin. Its formula is called Derma-Defense and combines prebiotic, provitamin B5, niacinamide, natural oils, ceramide and moisturizing agents. It has a skin-friendly pH and, according to the manufacturer, it does not contain preservatives, colorants or fragrance.
It is not a product for the flare-up moment. It is the daily emollient that is applied between flare-ups, in areas where no eczema flare-up is observed, so as not to leave the skin dry. It is intended for infants, children and adults with atopic predisposition and its large size of 400ml serves exactly this logic of systematic, daily application to the whole body.
In atopic skin, the skin barrier does not retain water well. The lipids between the cells of the keratin layer, mainly ceramides, cholesterol and free fatty acids, are in a different ratio than in healthy skin, so water loss to the environment is increased and the skin becomes dry and rough. At the same time, a barrier that has gaps allows irritants and allergens to reach deeper, while the balance of the skin microbiome is disrupted.
Thus, a cycle is created: dryness, itching, scratching, further damage to the barrier. Daily application of an emollient is the way to break this cycle at the phase of calm, which is why emollients are considered the basis of atopic skin care, regardless of what is used during the flare-up.
The data published by the manufacturer: clinically proven to reduce the roughness of infant skin by 93% and dryness by 87% in just 2 weeks, while 96% of infants who completed the clinical study did not develop new flare-ups of extreme dryness. It also states that it keeps the skin free of flare-ups for at least 3 months and ensures 7 hours of continuous sleep for children. The existing product leaflet also mentions an increase in skin moisture in just 2 hours. All of this is attributed to the manufacturer.
Actives: panthenol (provitamin B5), niacinamide (vitamin B3), ceramide NP, glycerol, prebiotic complex.

Practically, applying immediately after bathing, on skin that has dried with gentle pats and not by rubbing, helps to retain moisture.

The amount does not need to be sparing: the emollient works when used systematically and on all the surface that needs it. For external use, avoid the eyes. Do not apply to areas with active eczema flare-up, unless told to do so by your doctor, and do not interrupt a treatment prescribed by a doctor.
They are two different tools for two different phases. SensiDaily is a daily maintenance cosmetic emollient cream, for areas where there is no flare-up. Sensiderm Eczema is a medical device that targets the itching and symptoms of the flare-up of atopic dermatitis. Many use them complementary, one in calm and the other in flare-up, but the choice needs guidance from a doctor or pharmacist.
The manufacturer intends it for use in areas where no eczema flare-up is observed. For a strongly red, oozing or burning area, ask your doctor what should go there.
