What is QV Cream?

QV Cream is a soothing and effective moisturizer specially formulated for dry skin. Its rich, highly concentrated formula hydrates and softens dry, irritated skin. Free from harsh fragrances, colours, lanolin, and other irritants, QV Cream is ideal for sensitive skin and safe for use by the whole family—including infants, children, and the elderly. It helps relieve dry skin symptoms by preventing moisture loss, keeping your skin soft, supple, and well-hydrated. Its emollient properties support restoring the skin’s natural condition.

What causes dry skin?

Dry skin can result from a combination of health and environmental factors:

Environmental factors:

  • Weather changes causing lower temperatures and humidity

  • Heat sources like central heating, fireplaces, and heaters that reduce moisture in the air

  • Prolonged exposure to chlorinated swimming pools or hot baths and showers with harsh soaps, which strip natural oils from the skin

Skin conditions:

  • Eczema: causes dry, itchy, and uncomfortable skin

  • Psoriasis: leads to red, scaly, sensitive patches

  • Ichthyosis: results in thick, widespread dry, scaly skin

How does QV Cream soothe dry skin?

QV Cream is highly effective due to its concentrated emollient formula. It seals in your skin’s natural moisture to prevent water loss and keeps skin hydrated. It can be applied as often as needed to relieve dryness. Its gentle formula makes it suitable for all ages, including babies, children, and elderly individuals.
