Cosmetic Corner: Dermatologists Weigh in on Body Moisturizers

Leading dermatologists offered their recommendations on the top body moisturizers. See what they’re recommending to their patients and why.


 

To improve patient care and outcomes, leading dermatologists offered their recommendations on the top body moisturizers. Consideration must be given to:

· Cetaphil RESTORADERM Skin Restoring Moisturizer

Galderma Laboratories, LP

“This is a great general moisturizer and great for those with atopic skin. The added ceramides help to promote proper epidermal barrier function. The product does not have a greasy feeling, which is great for all year-round.”—Anthony M. Rossi, MD, New York, NY

· Eau Thermale Avène Trixéra+ Sélectiose Emollient Cream

Pierre Fabre Dermo-Cosmetique USA

“I recommend Trixéra emollient cream because it is safe to use even on infant skin. It is a very soothing cream just as soon as it is applied. It restores skin’s natural barrier because of the key ingredient Sélectiose, which aids in the reduction of hypersensitivity and inflammation of the skin.”—Marta I. Rendon, MD, Boca Raton, FL

· Eucerin Professional Repair Extremely Dry Skin Lotion

Beiersdorf, Inc

Recommended by Deborah S. Sarnoff, MD, New York, NY

· Kiehl’s Creme de Corps

Kiehl’s

Recommended by Gary Goldenberg, MD, New York, NY
