Cream Extreme Intensive Repair

Cream Extreme Intensive Repair is a rich occlusive barrier cream for very dry, parched skin with a compromised moisture barrier. It seals moisture in and helps a broken barrier recover — a rescue cream, not an anti-ageing treatment.

A rich balm-cream, warmed between the fingertips and pressed in as the last step at night.

Key benefits
Seals moisture into parched skin

A rich occlusive cream — petrolatum, dimethicone and emollients — that locks water in and stops it evaporating from very dry skin.

Rebuilds the barrier with skin-identical lipids

Ceramide PC-104, soy phytosterols and linoleic acid help restore the barrier of dry, compromised skin.

Comforts irritation

Allantoin and a rich lipid base help calm the feeling of tightness and irritation.

An honest rescue cream

This is a straightforward, effective barrier-repair balm — not an anti-ageing treatment. It does one job well: it seals moisture in.

What to expect

With nightly use on very dry or compromised skin, most people notice:

  • Skin feels immediately more comfortable and less tight
  • Less flaking and roughness over a few days
  • A calmer, less irritated surface
  • Moisture that holds through the night

Descriptive of the typical experience with consistent use. Individual results vary.

How to use
  • Apply as the last step of your evening routine
  • Warm between fingertips and press into skin
  • Use nightly until skin feels comfortable again
Loved & recommended

Not everything needs to be an anti-ageing treatment, and I respect a brand that says so. This is a proper occlusive barrier cream — petrolatum, dimethicone and ceramides — for skin that is genuinely compromised and parched. On a harsh winter or after a treatment, that is exactly what you want. Just don’t expect it to firm or resurface; that isn’t its job.

Elena HartDermatologist
Why it is recommended

It is an honest, effective barrier-repair cream — ceramides and phytosterols under a rich occlusive layer — and doesn’t pretend to be more.

Key ingredients
Ceramide PC-104 + phytosterols + linoleic acid

A skin-identical barrier-lipid complex that helps a compromised barrier rebuild.

Rich occlusives (petrolatum, dimethicone, cetyl alcohol)

Form a protective layer that prevents water loss from very dry skin.

Tetrahydrocurcuminoids

A gentle antioxidant, included to support the overall feel of the skin.

Allantoin + glycerin

Soothe and hydrate irritated, parched skin.

Always refer to the packaging for the full INCI list.

The science behind the formula

Cream Extreme is a classic occlusive barrier cream. Roughly a sixth of the formula is occlusive ingredients, layered over a skin-identical lipid complex of ceramides and phytosterols.

We describe it honestly: it seals moisture in and helps a broken barrier recover. It is not a peptide treatment and does not carry the clinical claims of our Blue Copper range — it is simply a very good rescue cream for dry, irritated skin.

FAQs
Is this an anti-ageing cream?

No — and we won't pretend it is. It is a barrier-repair and occlusive rescue cream for very dry, irritated skin. For firming and lines, look at our Blue Copper 5 range.

When should I use it?

As the last step of your evening routine, or during the day in cold, dry weather.

Can I use it on very dry or reactive skin?

Its job is to seal and soothe a compromised barrier. If you have a diagnosed skin condition, check with your dermatologist and patch test first.

How often?

Nightly until skin feels comfortable again, then as needed.

Can I use it on my body?

Yes — it works well on very dry patches such as elbows, hands and shins.

Will it feel greasy?

It is rich, so warm a small amount between the fingertips and press it in; a little goes a long way.

Can I wear make-up over it?

It is best as a night treatment. In the day, use a thin layer and let it absorb fully before make-up.

Does it contain fragrance?

Please check the ingredient list on the packaging; if your skin is very reactive, patch test first.

How should I store it?

Keep it somewhere cool and out of direct sunlight with the cap closed, so the actives stay stable.

How is it shipped, and can I return it?

Shipping is free on every order with no minimum, and there is a 30-day, no-questions-asked return guarantee if it is not right for you.

Excellent Cream for arms and legs

I like using this cream on my arms and legs as it makes the "crepe-look" disappear and stay disappeared. The product needs to come in a larger container for extra skin coverage.

Immediately helped drying skin

After a derma flash treatment my skin became very dry - for several weeks. I went back to this old stand by and my skin is back to being very moisturized and soft in just 5 days. I’m never leaving again!

interesting...

This cream is unlike anything I've used before. I'm using it daily with Creaseless and Lipofill; I alternate these two serums each day. My skin feels soft and smooth, although I haven't yet seen any improvement in facial lines & wrinkles, the main reason I'm trying it. But it's a generous-sized jar so I'm hoping for a more transformative effect as time goes on and I continue to use it.

I only gave it 4 stars because the cream is so thick I use a small tool to get out of the jar to place in my palm to warm it up. I may purchase another cram for day use. But if your skin is very dry or irritated this is a go to product for night.

Improving my face

I use many different products from many different brands on my face, but Cream Extreme from Osmotics is the one cream I wont go without. It is so rich and luxious. I use it every night. I really feel it makes a difference. I honestly have people tell me that I look twenty years younger than I am! I have used Cream Extreme for at least 7 years. Its amazing! Highly recommend it!

I had recently purchased a product that burned my skin. The Osmotic Cream,not only helped removing the burned skin but made my face more resilient.
