QV Intensive Cream 500g is the rich end of the QV range, formulated for extremely dry skin. Two things set it apart: a triple-moisturising action built around 10% glycerin, and a preservative-free formulation that suits very sensitive skin or skin that reacts to preservatives themselves. Ego states clinically proven 24-hour moisturisation.

Who the QV Intensive Cream 500g is for
This is not the everyday moisturiser in the range - QV Cream covers that. Intensive is the step up for skin that stays dry despite regular moisturising: cracked hands and heels, skin thinned by age or medication, and the genuinely difficult cases. The preservative-free formulation matters more than it sounds. Preservatives are a common trigger in people who react to creams generally, so removing them widens who can use it. The 500g size is for people applying it daily over large areas rather than spot-treating.
Common uses
Daily management of extremely dry skin, dermatitis-prone and preservative-sensitive skin, and routine moisturising in aged care and dermatology. Browse the full Ego Pharmaceuticals range, or see more medical supplies at MediBC.
QV Intensive Cream 500g FAQs
What is the difference between QV Cream and QV Intensive Cream?
QV Cream is the general-purpose rich moisturiser. Intensive is formulated for extremely dry skin, built around 10% glycerin, and is preservative free - which makes it the choice where an ordinary moisturiser is not holding, or where preservatives cause a reaction.
Is QV Intensive Cream preservative free?
Yes. That is one of its defining features, and the reason it suits very sensitive skin or skin that has reacted to preservatives in other creams.
How often should it be applied?
As often as needed, and particularly after bathing or showering while the skin is still slightly damp. Ego states clinically proven 24-hour moisturisation, but very dry skin often does better with more than one application a day.
Can it be used on the face?
It is a rich body cream. Some people use it on dry facial patches, but it may feel heavy or occlusive on the face - the QV Face range is formulated for that purpose.
Is it suitable for eczema-prone skin?
It is designed for extremely dry and sensitive skin, which is often the case in eczema. It is a moisturiser rather than a treatment, so use it alongside anything your doctor has prescribed rather than in place of it.
