Gehwol med Lipidro Foot Cream

75 ml

Rough, cracked, dry skin on the feet is a problem for many people, especially diabetics. When the skin on your feet feels taut, becomes dry, flaky, chapped, cracked and itchy, or if you have calluses then you're suffering from problematic dry skin. The new Gehwol med Lipidro Cream strikes a natural hydro-lipid balance. Coarse, dry skin on the feet lacks moisture and lipids. Gehwol med Lipidro Cream can help.

Diabetics are particularly affected

Extreme care must be paid to the feet of diabetics. Skin dryness frequently occurs due to the modified metabolism. The protective wall of the skin is no longer intact. Diabetics often complain of unpleasant itching and the skin on their feet is particularly prone to infection. Wound healing is often impaired.

The golden rule for dry, cracked skin is regular, well balanced skin care. Only then will your skin remain healthy, smooth and supple. The term "dry" can be misleading because dry skin not only lacks moisture. There is a distinct lack of lipids. Gehwol med Lipidro Cream provides dry skin on the feet with well-balanced proportions of skin-friendly lipids (fat components) and moisture-binding substances.

Sensitive balance

There are various ways in which healthy skin on the feet can keep water loss in check. It has "natural moisturizing factors": salts, various organic acids and urea. These bind moisture in the skin. However, lipids are equally important. They are between the corneal cells in the uppermost layer of the skin and bind the corneal cells together. Lipids can be compared with mortar that keep the bricks together to form a protective wall. Only the interaction between moisturizing factors and lipids will build an intact, protective wall that allows the upper layer of the skin to regulate the water content and defend against bacteria, viruses, fungus and other harmful substances.

Lipids = fats. Protect the skin against drying out. Maintain the elasticity and resilience of the stratum corneum.

Hydro = moisture. Increases binding between the skin cells. Guarantees the skin's natural protective function.

Ingredients

• Urea - has a softening effect on the stratum corneum and binds moisture
• Glycerine - stabilizes the skin cells and preserves elasticity
• Sea buckthorn and avocado oil - regulate the lipid/moisture balance
• Algae extract - protects against moisture loss
• Allantoin - promotes the regeneration of the skin
• Farnesol - possesses antibacterial and deodorizing properties

The ingredients compensate for lipid and moisture deficiencies and strike a natural balance in terms of the protective function of the skin. Daily usage of GEHWOL med Lipidro-Cream gives you protection against foot odour and infections and has an anti-inflammatory effect.
