Natural ingredients for sensitive skin
Many people with psoriasis, neurodermatitis, or simply sensitive skin often suffer from dryness, itching, or redness. Those affected often resort to creams containing cortisone or other chemical active ingredients. While these can provide immediate relief, they can be extremely harmful to the skin in the long run. Products with natural ingredients are a gentle alternative for soothing dry and irritated skin. We are aware of the great potential of natural ingredients and therefore ensure that our care products have a natural formulation. Additives such as perfume, irritating alcohols, or parabens are not contained in our products.
Why are natural ingredients better for the skin?
The skin is a sensitive organ that can react to foreign (chemical) substances with irritation or allergic reactions. Natural ingredients from plants, on the other hand, are better tolerated because they contain similar substances to the skin itself. They do not overload the delicate tissue and can support its natural barrier function.
Many plant-based substances also have soothing and anti-inflammatory properties. Thus, natural creams can alleviate symptoms and protect the skin from drying out, especially in cases of neurodermatitis, psoriasis or eczema. They are also free of preservatives or fragrances, which could also burden the skin.
Which ingredients does natüür use in its products?
For our creams and care products, we exclusively use natural ingredients that have a gentle and effective impact on the skin. A particularly effective component is the extract of neem leaves.
The substances contained in neem, such as Nimbolide, have strong anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. Especially with psoriasis and neurodermatitis, neem leaf extract can effectively relieve redness and itching.
Other ingredients in our products are Aloe Vera for a soothing effect, shea butter for moisture retention , and olive fruit oil to moisturize the skin.
How to identify natural ingredients
When choosing a product for sensitive skin, it is important to carefully read the list of ingredients. Natural active ingredients are often highlighted in the name or product description.
Terms such as "natural cosmetics," "plant-based," or "chemical-free" also indicate that many ingredients are of natural origin. Avoid products that contain cortisone, preservatives, mineral oils, paraffins, or essential oils in large quantities.
Typical natural ingredients include:
- Aloe Vera
- Argan oil
- Avocado oil
- Calendula
- Hemp oil
- Hyaluronic acid
- Jojoba oil
- Chamomile
- Cocoa butter
- Shea butter
- Almond oil
- Rosehip oil
- Devil's claw root
- Wheat germ oil
- Zinc
Even if not all ingredients come from nature, chemical additives in creams for sensitive skin should remain the exception.
Natural help for neurodermatitis
Many neurodermatitis patients particularly suffer from intense itching and reddened, cracked skin areas. Natural ingredients can provide valuable relief here. For example, chamomile and linden blossoms have a direct anti-inflammatory and soothing effect on irritated skin.
Zinc supports the healing of cracks, while almond oil and shea butter restore the skin's natural barrier function through their moisturizing fatty acids. For acute, severely reddened neurodermatitis flare-ups, products with soothing Aloe Vera are suitable.
Due to the anti-inflammatory effect of plants such as calendula or lavender, itching in neurodermatitis can be sustainably relieved. Many affected individuals report a significant reduction in symptoms after twice-daily application of natural creams and lotions.
These allow the irritated skin time to regenerate and aid in the wound healing process, instead of merely temporarily numbing symptoms as cortisone does. Natural care can therefore be a gentle therapeutic measure for neurodermatitis. Our products are also excellent for neurodermatitis!
Regular use for sustained care
For natural products to fully unleash their positive effect on the skin, correct application is crucial. Creams with natural ingredients should be applied twice daily to the affected skin areas to maintain their moisturizing and soothing effects throughout the day. Consistent use over a longer period can achieve sustainable effects such as an improved barrier function or a reduction in symptoms.
