Eucerin is one of those brands that should be viral for its amazing quality products and good prices but isn’t – yet! If you have dry skin or eczema, then you’ll probably already be familiar with the brand, which is known for being fragrance-free, non-irritating and packed with soothing, moisturising ingredients.
The brand is built on over 100 years of experience. In 1900, a young German chemist created a one-of-a-kind emulsifying agent – a balm that soothed and cooled the skin – which became the first-ever Eucerin product.
It has since developed into a range for all skin types, avoiding potential irritants such as fragrance and essential oils, focusing instead on reparative and soothing ingredients. No wonder Eucerin is a top choice for those with sensitive skin.
Why you should try Eucerin
Although the brand is known for hydrating and soothing skin, it also has a large offering that covers multiple skin concerns, from pigmentation to acne and even sun care.

This gentle cleansing gel is suitable for oily and acne-prone skin as it effectively removes dirt, sweat and excess sebum. It’s especially good for the summer months, when you might notice more oiliness and be in need of a thorough skin cleanse to avoid clogged pores. Importantly, it also doesn’t leave the skin tight after rinsing.
