Fagron Derma: care for every skin type
Fagron develops skincare products suitable for every skin type. The products are free from perfume, dyes, and unnecessary irritating ingredients. Whether your skin feels oily, normal, dry, very dry, or irritated, there is always a suitable basic cream, ointment, or shower product.
Use Lanette cream for gentle care and protection of normal to dry skin. The cream keeps the skin supple and prevents it from drying out further. Variants with more petrolatum provide extra protection: 10% petrolatum for normal-to-dry skin, 20% petrolatum for dry skin, and 50% petrolatum for very dry areas. Cetomacrogol cream is light in texture and suitable for normal skin. For drier skin types, there are petrolatum-based versions that provide more protection and retain moisture. Cetomacrogol ointment is thicker and stays on the skin longer, ideal for extra protection, overnight care, or rough patches.
Cooling ointment without rose oil provides relief for irritated or dry skin. The evaporation of water creates a mild cooling effect. Suitable as basic care for eczema, burning sensations, or after sun exposure, without rose oil to prevent irritation.
Use Zinc oxide ointment 10% for skin irritations such as red spots, smet spots, diaper rash, or chafed areas. The ointment protects the skin and has a mild drying effect to promote healing.
