Precautionary measures

Individual intolerance to individual components of the cream is possible. In general, no other contraindications have been identified for the use of the entire cosmetic line. This means that Lipobase cream (reviews from people who use this cream strongly confirm this fact) is not only a safe product, but also a therapeutic one. The preparations are ideal for hypersensitive skin. And this is far from uncommon in our time. Most problems with skin sensitivity are quickly resolved. This happens thanks to such a cosmetic product as Lipobase cream (instructions, reviews, price and other information are posted on many medical sites on the Internet and are presented in this material).

Indications

The Lipobase cosmetics series is intended for those with dry skin.
Indications for its use are various diseases - it helps with psoriasis, atopic dermatitis, eczema as a restorative, preventive and care product. Lipobase provides the necessary assistance to skin that has been subjected to intense external influences - cleansing, peeling, the prickly winter wind and the sultry summer sun.

Often, doctors who prescribe strong hormonal drugs to their patients recommend Lipobase as an emollient for the epidermis weakened by powerful drugs.

Lipobase contraindications

The manufacturer does not indicate contraindications for use in its instructions, but suggests caution in use during pregnancy. This indication is written on all pharmaceutical preparations and does not indicate that the cream is harmful.

If there is a need for use during pregnancy, you should apply the cream in a small amount to a small area of ​​skin and monitor the body’s reaction. If there is no redness or itching, the drug can be used. The answer to the question: Lipobase - at what age can children use it - is not in the instructions. At the same time, the manufacturer offers Lipobase-Baby emulsion especially for children, which is approved for use even by newborns.

Sensitive skin care

In the 90s there was a sharp leap in the development of science. This period was marked by the creation of a large number of face and body care products. Thanks to a thorough study of the skin of the human body, conclusions were drawn about the need for high-quality nutrition from the outside. Scientists have experimentally proven that the health of the epidermis (the upper protective layer of the skin) directly depends on the composition of the creams used for care. It is the correctly selected components of skincare cosmetics that can help the cells of the face and body develop correctly and maintain elasticity longer.

• Water. Plays the role of a solvent, a representative of all life on Earth.
• Glyceryl stearate. An irreplaceable part of the cream, which has a number of functions: it helps to bind the components together and achieve the required consistency of the product, saves the skin from dehydration, and rejuvenates cells. It has one drawback - it can cause an allergic reaction in the body.
• Emulsifiers. Mix the water and oil bases together. Without their presence in the composition, the structure of the product would be disrupted.
• Alcohols of fatty origin. Obtained by squeezing coconut pulp and then converting it into oil. Helps the skin retain moisture in the epidermal cells.

• Urea. A synthetic component that disinfects, kills germs, and retains moisture in skin cells.
• Lactic acid. Together with the previous component, it has a positive effect on the regeneration processes of the skin.
• Ceramides. They participate in the formation of the epidermis and are one of the types of lipids. Directly affect the level of hydration. The presence of this component in the composition indicates the success of the treatment of psoriasis and dermatitis.
• Vitamins A and E. Maintains firmness and smoothness.

Reviews

Several real reviews about the use of various forms of Lipobase:

Kristina, 23 years old, St. Petersburg:

I purchased Lipobase baby bathing oil. Reasonable price, easy to use bottle and very pleasant, light aroma. Previously, I bathed my daughter with another foreign product, which is several times more expensive than Lipobase. But I liked the domestic analogue better. When bathing a child, a soft foam is formed that envelops the baby's skin.

I noticed the result after the first use. The child's skin became very soft and velvety.

Additionally, I purchased Lipobase baby cream. I applied it to the baby’s bottom, it helps very well against diaper rash and eliminates dryness. I am very pleased with Lipobase, and most importantly, this product does not cause any unpleasant reactions.

Roman, 27 years old, Kaliningrad:

Since adolescence I have suffered from problematic and overly sensitive skin. Pimples, redness, flaking of the skin have become a common thing for me. A friend advised me to try Lipobase cream. I didn’t have much hope for it, because I tried a lot of remedies and in the end I was not satisfied with any of them. I still bought the cream. I started using it 3 times a day. The condition of the skin gradually improved. The inflammation disappeared, I completely forgot what peeling was, the skin became smooth and elastic.

The product also helped with eczema. I applied it 4 times a day to the problem area.

I’m used to trusting only imported medicines, but Lipobase surprised me. A very high quality product.

Irina, 41 years old, Vladivostok:

I began to notice peeling and redness on my elbows, then a terrible itching appeared, which was simply impossible to tolerate. It itched so much that I scratched my elbows until they bled. I endured this condition for a week, hoping that it would go away on its own. But it didn’t get better, I had to see a doctor. He told me that such signs are a symptom of dermatitis. He recommended that I use Lipobase emulsions.

The product helped very quickly. The skin stopped itching and peeling. After 10 days, not a trace remained of the unpleasant sensations.

I am grateful to the doctor for prescribing an inexpensive Russian medicine, and not forcing me to buy useless expensive drugs.

Lipobase is sold without a doctor's prescription, but it is recommended to consult a specialist before using it.

Which analogues are better to choose?

The average cost of Lipobase is not very high - 300 rubles.
per 75-milligram tube. Within the same price range is another product from the Pharmtek company, a fairly close analogue of Lipobase - Skin Active cream. Unfortunately, there are no cheap analogues

In addition, there is a great danger of purchasing an ointment or cream as a “complete replacement” and not paying attention to the fact that the difference between them is significant, especially in terms of contraindications

For example, Cynovit cream, unlike Lipobase, cannot be used during pregnancy (this fact is explained by the fact that a sufficient number of studies have not yet been conducted on the effect of the cream’s components on the fetus).
