    What emollient care products have in common

    Whether in periods of calm or flare-ups, emollient treatments formulated for atopic-prone skin contain all the essential ingredients to prevent, repair and soothe.

    It is even known that, when applied from birth in cases of family history or first signs of redness, they can reduce the risk of developing symptoms of atopic eczema by 33% to 50% .

    Do you enjoy gently stroking your child's skin?

    Don't deprive yourself: you're combining business with pleasure!

    The primary action of emollient treatments is to help the skin restore its skin barrier . This means hydrating it, but also replenishing its lipids, that is to say, providing it with the necessary lipids to recreate its protective film (the hydrolipidic film), which is naturally thinner than that of an adult at birth.

    Day after day, the skin regains better impermeability: it becomes more difficult for allergens to penetrate and trigger the immune system. Unwanted guests beware!

    During flare-ups, emollient products also provide immediate relief from itching, tightness, and irritation. They are invaluable allies, in addition to medical treatment if necessary, to help you get through these difficult periods. Enjoy some soothing care for your baby.

    Making the right choice

    For your baby, it is essential to turn to specific baby-child care products, such as Stelatopia Emollient Cream .

    Until the age of 3, her skin is particularly sensitive to external aggressions:

    • Its pH, around 7, is close to neutral.

    • its stratum corneum is more fragile,

    • Its dermis is three times thinner .

    Until it reaches full maturity, it therefore needs the best precautions: natural and/or patented active ingredients, extreme tolerance, hypoallergenic, preservative-free… These are all key indicators to guarantee your child’s well-being.

    For you, it's the assurance of offering her a treatment whose gentleness is reflected both in its composition and its application .

    These products can accompany each step of the bathing routine, providing hydration right from the shower or bath. You can start with a cleansing cream or bath oil, then finish with a moisturizing balm specially formulated for fragile and atopic skin… These moments then become true rituals of connection : a kiss on a well-protected cheek, a lullaby to lull them to sleep, a few surprise tickles… Happiness and well-being guaranteed!
