Read more about our product

Eucerin's AtoControl Acute Care Cream breaks the vicious circle of itchy flare-ups with soothing care. AtoControl Acute Care Cream is not a pharmaceutical product. Apply as often as needed on the affected areas to intensively care, calm and soothe skin. Eucerin AtoControl Acute Care Cream is a unique complex which includes regenerating Omega-6- fatty acids (Evening Primrose Oil and Grape Seed Oil), soothing Licochalcone A (an extract from the licorice root), anti-bacterial Decandiol and cooling Menthoxypropanediol. It has been clinically and dermatologically proven to be suitable for atopic skin in adults, children and babies from the age of 4 weeks. To minimise the risk of skin irritation and allergies, it is cortisone-free, fragrance-free, colourant-free and paraben-free.

How to Use

Apply as often as needed on flare-up areas. You may experience a cool sensation or tingling shortly after application. This is nothing to be concerned about and just shows that the product is working.

Main findings

In a Product in Use (PiU) test, Eucerin AtoControl Acute Care Cream was used alongside Eucerin AtoControl Lotion by a sample of 144 men and women, all aged 30+, with mild and moderate Atopic Dermatitis. After four weeks of daily use they reported the following results. Improves quality of life Before the trial, 92% of the sample agreed that Atopic Dermatitis affected their quality of life. After four weeks of using the AtoControl products, only 38% of the sample agreed that the disease affected their quality of life. From this we can infer that, as a result of using the products, 54% of the sample felt there was an improvement in their quality of life.

The ingredients in our brand products are updated regularly. For this reason, occasionally there may be discrepancies between the  ingredients on our website and on our product packaging.

  • Licochalcone A

    Licochalcone A is a powerful antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and skin-soothing ingredient. It is derived from the root of the Chinese Licorice plant (Glycyrrhiza Inflata) which uses natural compounds to protect its cells from excessive sunlight. When used in skincare products, Licochalcone A works to reduce inflammation and neutralises free radicals that negatively influence skin cells and accelerate the aging process. It helps to protect the deeper epidermal skin layers from sun-induced effects.

  • Menthoxypropanediol (MPD)

    Menthoxypropanediol is a synthetic derivate of menthol. Menthoxypropanediol cools and calms the skin, and helps to relieve itch.

  • Ceramides

    Ceramides are important lipids in the hydrolipid film (which protects the external layers of skin). Produced naturally in healthy skin, they strengthen the skin barrier, helping to prevent moisture loss due to evaporation and keeping out irritants that can cause inflammation and itching. When skin’s Ceramide levels fall the skin barrier is impaired. Skin can start to lose water and become dry and irritated.
    Eucerin uses synthetic Ceramides that are biologically-identical and that enhance skin’s natural barrier – locking in moisture and preventing dryness and irritation. ;

  • Decandiol

    Decanediol shows antibacterial efficacy against a broad spectrum of microbes, in  particular against Cutibacterium acnes.

  • Grape Seed Oil

    Grape Seed Oil is a rich source of essential fatty acids and Vitamin E. The polyphenols and flavonoids found in Grape Seed Oil are strong anti-oxidant compounds and, thus, provide protection from damage caused by free radicals while Linoleic acid soothes and nourishes skin.

    Good for dry skin but not eczema
    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was great for my dry hands, I liked the simple packaging and it didn't have a scent which I prefer. However it wasn't great for my partners excema, he said it burnt. I think the cream is advertised as a cream to help with excema so in that case I have given 3 stars.

    Does exactly what it says on the tube
    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Eucerin Acute care cream The tube is classic Eucerin packaging, squeezes out easily , the cream is quite thick and not really scented and it rubs in to the skin really nicely not greasy at all And it does exactly what it says on the tube, I have really itchy hands daily and this cream almost instantly stops the itch, I love this product and will very likely carry on using it .
