QV Cream 1kg, the tub. A rich protective moisturiser with squalene, in the size that suits whole-body daily use, a family, or anyone applying it generously enough for it to actually work.
Which size QV Cream
| Size | Suits |
|---|---|
| 1kg tub (this one) | Whole-body daily use, families, best value per gram |
| 100g tube | Carry, handbag, desk, or a first try |
Identical cream in both. The tub exists because under-application is the main reason moisturising fails, and people ration a small tube.
What QV Cream is
A rich, protective moisturising cream that replenishes skin and hydrates dry areas. It contains squalene, a component naturally present in the skin’s own oil, which is part of why it sits well on skin that reacts to heavier occlusive products.
The areas it is bought for are the stubborn ones: elbows, knees, hands, heels, and anywhere that stays dry no matter what else is used.
Applying it so it works
Apply within a few minutes of patting dry after a shower, while the skin is still slightly damp. That traps water the skin has just absorbed, and it is the single biggest difference between a moisturiser working and not working.
Use warm rather than hot water when washing. Heat strips the skin’s own lipids faster than any cleanser, and undoes the moisturising you did that morning.
Fragrance free, colour free and lanolin free, which matters if those are what have irritated you before. Low irritant is not the same as guaranteed for everyone: patch test on a small area if your skin reacts easily.
When dry skin is more than dry skin
Skin that cracks, weeps, bleeds or itches intensely, or that does not improve with consistent moisturising, may be eczema or another condition needing treatment rather than a richer cream. Skin that is red, hot and spreading may be infected and needs prompt review.
With a tub, use clean dry hands or a spatula rather than dipping repeatedly with wet fingers, which introduces water and contamination into a container that will last months.

QV Cream 1kg FAQs
Why buy the 1kg tub?
Value and generosity. Under-application is the main reason moisturising fails, and people ration a small tube. A tub removes that instinct, and works out far cheaper per gram for daily whole-body use.
Is it the same cream as the 100g?
Yes, identical. Only the amount and packaging differ. Many people keep both: the tub at home and the tube in a bag.
How should I take it out of the tub?
With clean dry hands or a spatula. Repeatedly dipping wet fingers introduces water and contamination into a container you will be using for months.
When should I apply it?
Within a few minutes of patting dry after a shower, while skin is still slightly damp. That is when it holds the most water.
Is it suitable for sensitive skin?
It is fragrance, colour and lanolin free. Patch test on a small area first if your skin reacts easily.
When should I see a doctor instead?
If skin cracks, weeps, bleeds, itches intensely or does not improve with consistent moisturising. Red, hot, spreading skin may be infected and needs prompt review.
Always read the label and use only as directed. If irritation occurs or symptoms persist, see your pharmacist or doctor. This information is a general guide and is not medical advice.
