Bioderma ATODERM SHOWER OIL

CleansingSodium cocoamphoacetate, Peg-7 glyceryl cocoate + 6 moreCleanses gently
“Atoderm Shower Oil Body Wash is a gentle cleansing oil that intensely nourishes itchy skin, restores lipids and soothes the feeling of tightness.”
This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (coco-glucoside, glyceryl oleate, laureth-2, lauryl glucoside, peg-7 glyceryl cocoate, polysorbate 20, sodium cocoamphoacetate) and should be able to cleanse the skin gently. Still keep in mind that any cleansing can disrupt the skin barrier, and most people do not need to cleanse their skin more than once per day.
Even though this formulation is mild, the following cleansing agents could trigger an irritation or allergy for some people: coco-glucoside, glyceryl oleate

atopic HG! the only body wash that doesn't irritate my very atopic skin, i don't know what i would do without it. it both cleanses well, emulsifying with water to become a light hydrating foam gel, and it hydates the skin incredibly well. i actually feel not even the same but more hydrated after the shower - and i never imagined that was possible. i am guessing that the high glycerin content is the main factor in that. combined with atoderm pp balm, it really makes a huge difference to my eczema, the best treatment routine so far. IMPORTANT NOTE: the fragrance is very light and it doesn't irritate me personaly, but i am tolerant of regular amounts of most fragrances. unless you have a fragrance allergy, i recommend this to every person suffering with atopic dermatitis. fragrance is a potential irritant, but it doesn't mean automatic irritation. especially in a wash-offproduct.
