As a doctor, boep founder Michaela has long been keen to develop natural cosmetics for real problem skin. When she met influencer and bioanalyst Anni from Annisbuntewelt at an organic trade fair in January 2020, the idea of a basic cream for very sensitive skin was quickly born. Since January 2022, our med care consisting of a med basic cream and a matching med wound cream has finally been available. Of course, we were interested in how well it is tolerated by customers with problem skin, which is why we asked them for their feedback! These are your voices summarized. ⇣
Of all the testers, the majority stated that they or their children suffer from neurodermatitis. There was also a lot of feedback from customers with rosacea, eczema, very sensitive or very dry skin, but also normal skin.
First, we asked how they rate the skin compatibility of med care:
"My daughter suffers from neurodermatitis, especially in winter. She tolerated the cream very well and the redness and itching subsided after a few applications." – Claudia
"Our daughter has very dry skin. We have tried several products before. With the basic cream in combination with the baby cream, we really feel for the first time that it is good for her skin. Especially on her face, where she had a slight atopic eczema, the skin has recovered wonderfully and is now beautifully soft." – Anneliese
"I use the cream for my 4-month-old daughter, who has newborn neurodermatitis. Her skin is dry and sensitive in some areas of her face. She tolerates the cream very well and a few minutes after applying it, her skin is no longer red. The dry skin flakes are also reduced." – Melanie
Some people said that the base cream caused a slight burning sensation when applied to the skin during flare-ups. However, our med series is what is known as primary medical care, where the focus is on skin care during flare-up-free intervals . It is therefore not a substitute for medication, which is sometimes needed to bring the skin back into balance.
We were also interested in how our testers rated the consistency of both creams. They particularly praised the creams for being easy to spread and for being quickly absorbed.
"I think it's perfect that the products are so easy to smear and only a small amount is needed." – Yasmin
"The consistency is perfect. It is easy to squeeze out of the tube and spreads very well and quickly on a fidgety baby. It is also quickly absorbed, which means I can quickly get my daughter dressed again after applying the cream. And above all, there is no comparison to the product that the pediatrician recommended to us!" – Sabine
"The base cream in particular is easy to spread, which is great if the child needs to be creamed several times a day." – Nele
We are delighted that our new care range has been so well received by you and that 99.9% of testers would recommend it!
"I have rarely found a cream for my skin that is alcohol-free, easy to spread and does not contain any fragrances. I used the base cream for my daily use and am very happy with it." - Yasmin
"It's so great that you managed to do this. I've tried so many things with our daughter, but this is the first cream that has improved the sensitive areas in the long term without having to keep going to the doctor for a new ointment." - Maria
Of course, we also asked what we could do better. In addition to new products in the med range, the majority of people wanted one thing in particular: larger packaging ! For this reason, we decided to offer the med base cream in two sizes from now on: In addition to the small 50ml tube for testing and getting to know it, it is now also available in the practical 200ml maxi tube at the special price of €26.95 !
We would like to thank all testers who supported us with their feedback!
Best regards from the boep team
