skin.
WHAT IS
CALMEXEMA?
Calmexema is a
specially formulated vegetable based
moisturiser, using researched and selected
ingredients. It contains a balance of essential
fatty acid oils, vegetable oils, plant
extracts, vitamins, shea butter and essential
oils. The ingredients are said to soothe
and nourish dry skin, they moisturise
and hydrate flaky skin, relieve irritated
skin, have anti-inflammatory
properties, promote wound healing and skin
softening, and have antiviral,
antibacterial and antifungal activity. This
cream may help give relief to itchy, red,
dry and inflamed skin patches, often associated
with skin problems like eczema, dermatitis or
sensitive skin, sunburn and rashes.
You can use it all over your
body and face, just replace your usual
moisturiser with Calmessence Calmexema.
HINTS
I used to put it all over
after my bath in the morning, and take a
little jar with me. After a few months I needed
less of the cream as my skin improved. Before
this I would have to moisturise with
other creams every few hours.
Caution: Always test
a small patch of skin first and if irritation
or allergy occurs stop using immediately.
WHY IT WORKS
The main objectives or goals
in eczema management and treatment are;
-
Reduce inflammation and promote
wound healing and improve skin
turgor/strength and elasticity.
-
Relieve the itch.
-
Moisturise and hydrate dry patches.
-
NUMBER 4 is CRUCIAL and that
is to control the microorganisms
and bacteria that cause the
exacerbations and eczema skin flare
ups. When children scratch and
itch, with fingernails which always
cannot be clean, it is well
researched that germs such as staph
aureus can enter the broken skin,
causing more itching and then
scratching, and the cycle
continues. The child is normally
given antibiotic therapy and maybe
a steroid cream. CALMESSENCE
CALMEXEMA
contains anti-microbial ingredients
that are said to inhibit
germs such as staph-aureus,
streptococci and trichphyton fungi
from colonizing on the skin and may
break this itch-scratch-infection'
cycle and skin flare-ups..
CALMEXEMA
helps address all the above goals all in one
cream. I have tried other formulas, and they
may have had great plant extracts but they were
in a mineral based cream, and they never
moisturised my skin, they just sat on the
surface but underneath my skin was still dry
and flaky an hour later. Or they were good
emolients and had shea butter etc, but no
active ingredients to relieve the itch and
redness.
I have incorporated
everything I know and have learned, to the best
of my knowledge, into one cream and have a
formula to assist in the care and relief of the
symptoms associated with eczema.
CALMEXEMA can
be a useful daily moisturiser and part of your
skin maintenance and management plan and should
be used in your daily routine as a
moisturiser.
