NART: 63366-09900-22Read more about our product
Eucerin AtoControl Body Care Lotion uses a combination of concentrated Omega-6-fatty acids (Evening Primrose Oil and Grape Seed Oil) and soothing Licochalcone A to replenish skin and restore its natural barrier. Apply once or twice daily or as adjunctive care to Eucerin AtoControl Acute Care Cream during a flare-up.
With regular application itchiness and tightness are relieved and skin feels soft and noticeably smoothed. Eucerin AtoControl Body Care Lotion is clinically and dermatologically tested and proven to be compatible with atopic skin in adults, children and babies from 4 weeks.
The water-in-oil formula is fragrance-free, colourant-free and paraben-free to minimise the risk of skin irritation and allergies.
Main findings
In a Product in Use (PiU) test, Eucerin AtoControl Body Care Lotion was used alongside Eucerin AtoControl Acute Care Cream by a sample of 144 men and women, 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.

Clinical Formula
Licochalcone A
Licochalcone A is a potent anti-inflammatory and antioxidant ingredient derived from the roots of the Chinese licorice plant (Glycyrrhiza inflata). Licochalcone A protects skin cells from oxidative stress and environmental aggressors like UV and blue light (HEVIS). Key benefits are:
- Antioxidant Defense: Activates antioxidant and detoxifying enzymes, shielding skin cells from oxidative damage, including lipid peroxidation, DNA- and protein damage.
- Anti-Inflammatory Action: Effectively reduces redness and soothes irritated skin, making it ideal for sensitive and irritated and stressed skin conditions.
Ceramide 3
Ceramides are essential skin lipids that form a key component of the epidermal barrier. They provide two main benefits:
- Barrier Function: Ceramides strengthen and restore the skin’s protective barrier, preventing transepidermal water loss and shielding against environmental stressors.
- Dry Skin Relief: By maintaining optimal hydration levels, ceramides alleviate symptoms of dryness, keeping the skin soft and resilient.

FAQ
What is the difference between Eucerin AtopiControl Cream and Eucerin AtopiControl Lotion?
The balm and the lotion are both ideal for use on atopic skin all over the body. They are both effective at soothing skin and supporting its natural barrier function. The choice of which product to use comes down to textural preference: the balm is an oil-in-water formulation and is lighter; the water-in-oil lotion is richer. Some people choose to use the lotion during the winter and the balm during the summer. The cream has a thicker texture and has been specially formulated for use on problem areas such as the elbows and knees.
Is Eucerin AtopiControl Lotion suitable for use on children?
Yes, so long as your child is four weeks or older.
What do you mean by a ‘flare-up’ and ‘the period between flare-ups’?
Broadly speaking, Atopic Dermatitis has two different phases. A ‘flare-up’ is one of the names used to describe the acute, active phase when skin is at its most irritable. It can feel intensely itchy, you may experience a burning sensation and skin can look red, dry and flaky. Between these acute, flare-up phases are periods of time when your skin is relatively calm and less irritated. This period is also known as the non-acute, non-active or interval phase. The length of each phase varies greatly depending on the individual, but products specially formulated to care for atopic skin − such as those in the Eucerin AtopiControl range − can help to extend the period between flare-ups and offer relief during acute flare-ups.
Is Atopic Dermatitis the same as Eczema?
Atopic Dermatitis and Atopic Eczema are collective terms for inflammatory changes to the skin and they include many different dermatological diseases. Atopic Dermatitis and Atopic Eczema are used to describe the same chronic inflammatory condition.
Do you have Atopic Dermatitis and are looking for an all over body moisturiser for daily use?
Used daily, Eucerin AtopiControl Lotion will help to prolong the period between flare-ups and can also be used during flare-ups alongside your usual medication and Eucerin AtopiControl Acute Care Cream to help soothe skin and reduce itching.
