AQUIOL™ for Eczema & Sensitive Skin: A Steroid-Free Way to Calm Flare-Ups
Eczema and sensitive skin are driven by immune overactivity and barrier breakdown, not just dryness.
Moisturisers alone aren’t enough - and steroids come with risks.
The Problem With Steroid-Based Eczema Treatments

-
Prolonged use may compromise skin strength
-
Can lead to flare recurrence when discontinued
-
Focuses on suppression rather than balance
- Typically recommended for short-term use only
How MGC Derma AQUIOL™ Helps Eczema-Prone Skin
Our clinically-validated AQUIOL™ supports eczema-prone skin by:

-
Helps calm overactive skin responses
-
Reduces itching and redness for improved comfort
-
Strengthens the skin’s natural barrier
-
Boosts hydration where skin needs it most
Many recent clinical studies* have reported reductions in itch intensity, dryness, and discomfort, alongside improvements in patient-reported outcomes such as skin comfort and quality of life.
These effects are thought to be linked to CBD’s interaction with the skin’s endocannabinoid system, including pathways involved in inflammation regulation, sensory nerve signalling, and skin barrier function.
Why Aquiol™ Is Ideal for Sensitive Skin
Our patented AQUIOL™ is specifically designed for reactive, compromised, and sensitive skin.
It avoids common triggers that can worsen irritation or weaken the skin over time, such as harsh preservatives, and barrier-disrupting actives.
While our products feature a light, gentle scent, the advanced hypoallergenic formulation ensures they remain suitable for sensitive skin, and pose no risk of irritation.

Aquiol™ focuses on regulation and balance - supporting the skin’s own calming, protective, and hydrating mechanisms. This makes it suitable for ongoing, long-term skincare, especially where skin comfort and resilience matter most.
