The Bioderma Atoderm Gel Douche is a foaming gel cleanser for face and body in a 500ml package, designed for dry to very dry and atopic skin. It cleanses with mild cleansing agents, without traditional soap, and leaves the skin clean without the usual pulling sensation that follows a bath.
It is aimed at anyone who feels their skin pulling as soon as they get out of the shower, parents looking for a product suitable for the whole family, and people with chronic dryness who need to be careful about what they use daily.
The natural pH of the epidermis is around 5, slightly acidic. Traditional soaps are alkaline and, in combination with hot water, remove not only impurities but also part of the lipids that keep water in the skin. In an epidermis that already produces fewer lipids, such as dry and atopic skin, this daily loss maintains the cycle of dryness, pulling, and discomfort.
The logic of the Atoderm line is precisely this: to ensure that the shower does not remove more than necessary. The Gel Douche uses a combination of mild surfactants, including coco-betaine, coco-glucoside, and sodium lauroyl sarcosinate, which produce normal foam but are more compatible with the hydrolipidic mantle than a traditional soap.
The formulation contains fragrance (parfum), as stated on the INCI label. If you need a completely odorless alternative for the shower, ask us to recommend another product from the range.
For adults, children, and infants with dry to very dry skin, who need daily cleansing without additional dehydration. It is a practical choice for families, because the same bottle covers all members and does not require a separate product for each age.
It also suits those who shower frequently due to sports or work, for skins irritated by hard water, and in the winter months when heating and sudden temperature changes intensify dryness.
It is the first step of the Atoderm routine. After the shower, the skin is at the ideal time to receive a moisturizing body cream, such as Atoderm Crème Ultra or Atoderm Intensive Baume, depending on the severity of dryness.

With a full-body cleansing shower per day, a 500ml bottle typically lasts one and a half months for an adult. In family use, the duration decreases accordingly.
We recommend it. The gel cleanses gently, but moisturizing dry skin is done with the next step, the cream or body balm, ideally within a few minutes of the shower while the skin is still slightly damp.
