Ego QV Flare Up cream is an emollient cream used to relieve the symptoms of atopic eczema and dermatitis. It contains glycerol, which improves skin hydration and suppleness. The emollient components of QV Flare Up Cream are designed to help reduce the occurrence of mild eczema flare ups. Best applied to affected regions three times per day, especially after showering, bathing, and at bedtime. Active moisturizing ingredient Glycerin is a humectant, which draws and holds water to the skin to keep it hydrated. The moisturizing properties of glycerin can provide long-lasting moisture to the skin. Glycerin works as a humectant in high humidity, but as a skin moisturizer and conditioner in low humidity by blocking the lipid phase transition. Glycerin moisturizes the skin and improves its texture. It also strengthens the skin's barrier, making it more resistant to external stimuli.
