I\u2019ve long struggled with dry, sensitive skin, even experiencing dehydration and a compromised skin barrier.<\/a><\/p>\n

Dryness across both my face and body can flare up<\/a>, especially during the colder months, when temperatures change or when I try harsh products.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s why it\u2019s important to always have a stockpile of trusty skincare saviours on hand.<\/a><\/p>\n

For me, it\u2019s QV Skincare<\/a>, the Aussie-made brand that formulates, manufactures and packages all its products at Ego Pharmaceuticals at its Melbourne-based facility.<\/p>\n

With a focus on barrier-friendly ingredients and formulas free from nasties and fragrances, the best-selling range has become a non-negotiable in my routine.<\/p>\n

And I\u2019m not the only one who laps up these formulas. QV Skincare has thousands of fans across the globe<\/a>, from the UK to Southeast Asia and the Middle East.<\/p>\n

The brand is even home to specialised formulas that can help to relieve the symptoms of eczema<\/a> and dermatitis.<\/p>\n

While there are many to choose from, these are the cult-favourite formulas I rely on when my skin needs a little TLC.<\/p>\n

Best body cleanser: QV Gentle Wash, $16.99<\/p>\n

When my skin is feeling particularly dry or sensitive, I reach for QV Gentle Wash in the shower.<\/a><\/p>\n

It\u2019s a soap-free body cleanser that gently washes away impurities without stripping moisture from my skin.<\/p>\n

The results? Soft and supple limbs<\/a> without any tight feeling after I towel dry.<\/p>\n

Ask anyone and they\u2019ll say the same thing: a good skincare routine starts with a gentle cleanse.<\/p>\n

For me, QV\u2019s Face Gentle Cleanser<\/a> ticks all the boxes.<\/p>\n

Thanks to its creamy formula, it\u2019s perfect for dry and sensitive skin types<\/a>, cleansing away makeup and impurities at the end of the day.<\/p>\n

Cracked elbows? Sore heels? QV\u2019s Dermcare Sting-Free Ointment<\/a> is a master at soothing them all.<\/p>\n

The formula is free from water, and can hydrate dry, cracked, or eczema-prone skin without stinging.<\/p>\n

For less than $15<\/a>, it\u2019s the kind of tube a household has multiple of, hidden in every shelf, drawer or handbag for whenever you need it.<\/p>\n

Whenever my body needs an extra hit of hydration, QV\u2019s popular Ceramides Cream<\/a> is my go-to.<\/p>\n

I apply this nourishing formula the second I step out of the shower, and my slightly damp skin laps it up immediately.<\/p>\n

Jam-packed with ceramides and niacinamide<\/a>, it lends a helping hand to replenish moisture and support the skin\u2019s natural barrier.<\/p>\n

My bathroom cabinet has a few of my favourite night creams, but if I notice dry patches appearing, I go back to QV Face Nurturing Night Cream.<\/a><\/p>\n

It\u2019s packed with a vitamin B3 complex with nourishes and leaves my complexion feeling smooth.<\/p>\n

Possibly the best way to end a long day.<\/p>\n
