Description
SOS cream for stressed, sensitive, and dry skin
Sensitive skin that reacts quickly to stress, weather changes, or aggressive care requires more than just hydration. When the skin barrier weakens, symptoms such as redness, itching, tightness, and burning occur. The skin loses its natural resistance and becomes increasingly reactive to external stimuli.
The Dr Schrammek Sensiderm Stress Protect Cream is a rich SOS cream that acts immediately on these stress reactions. The formula combines soothing ingredients like aloe vera and Defensil® with nourishing plant oils and natural moisturizing factors. The result: skin that feels instantly calmer, better hydrated, and gradually regains its resilience.

Active ingredients
Defensil®: A three-part active complex with echium oil, balloon vine (Cardiospermum), and non-saponifiable parts of sunflower. This complex inhibits inflammatory reactions at the cellular level, reduces itching, and soothes acute irritation. It is especially effective for stressed, reactive skin that reddens quickly.
Aloe Vera (Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice): As the second ingredient on the INCI list, aloe vera plays a leading role in this formula. It works immediately to soothe, deeply hydrate, and promote the skin's natural recovery process. For irritated or sunburned skin, aloe vera provides instant relief.
Macadamia Nut Oil (Macadamia Ternifolia Seed Oil): Rich in palmitoleic acid, a fatty acid naturally found in young skin. It strengthens the skin barrier, deeply nourishes, and restores the lipid content of dry, sensitive skin without leaving a greasy film.
Squalane: A skin-friendly lipid identical to the skin's natural squalene. Squalane locks in moisture, strengthens the barrier, and is especially gentle on reactive skin. It absorbs quickly and feels silky smooth.
Avocado Oil (Persea Gratissima Oil): Contains high concentrations of vitamins A, D, and E plus essential fatty acids that penetrate deeply into the skin. Avocado oil intensely nourishes dry skin and helps repair a damaged skin barrier.
Grapeseed Oil (Vitis Vinifera Seed Oil): Rich in linoleic acid and polyphenols, this oil supports barrier function and provides antioxidant protection against free radicals. Especially suitable for sensitive skin that needs extra resilience.
Jojoba Oil (Simmondsia Chinensis Seed Oil): A liquid wax structurally similar to the skin’s sebum. Jojoba regulates the lipid balance, hydrates without weighing down, and is excellently tolerated even by the most sensitive skin.
Shea Butter Extract (Butyrospermum Parkii Extract): Nourishes and restores the skin barrier thanks to a rich content of fatty acids and vitamins. Ideal for very dry skin that needs deep care without clogging.
Vitamin E (Tocopheryl Acetate & Tocopherol): A powerful antioxidant that protects the skin from oxidative stress and slows down the aging process. Vitamin E also supports the repair of a damaged skin barrier.
Natural Moisturising Factors (NMF): A combination of fructose, glucose, urea, asparagine acid, glutamic acid, and alanine — substances naturally found in the skin that regulate moisture levels. By replenishing these NMFs, the natural moisture balance is restored.
Panthenol (provitamin B5): Deeply hydrates, soothes irritated skin, and stimulates the natural repair process. In cases of stress reactions or a damaged skin barrier, panthenol provides immediate relief.
Bisaccharide Gum-2: A moisture-binding ingredient that forms an invisible protective film on the skin and helps retain moisture for a long time while protecting the skin from environmental influences.

Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between sensitive skin and sensitized skin?
Sensitive skin is usually genetically determined and reacts chronically to stimuli. Sensitized skin is skin that has temporarily become unbalanced due to improper care, stress, pollution, or sun damage. The Sensiderm Stress Protect Cream is suitable for both situations: it soothes immediate stress reactions and helps structurally strengthen the skin barrier.
Can I use this cream during the day under makeup?
Yes, despite the rich texture, the cream absorbs well. Let the cream rest for a few minutes before applying makeup. For a lighter daytime care, you can combine the cream with an SPF on top. For very dry skin, the Sensiderm Stress Protect Cream is also an excellent base during the day.
Is this cream suitable after a professional skin treatment or intensive sun exposure?
Absolutely. The combination of Defensil®, aloe vera, and panthenol makes this cream ideal for aftercare. The ingredients immediately soothe the skin, restore the barrier, and provide the weakened skin with the nourishment it needs at that moment. Even after light peels, IPL treatments, or a long day in the sun, this cream offers immediate relief.
My skin is oily but sensitive; is this cream too rich then?
The Sensiderm Stress Protect Cream is deliberately richly formulated for dry to very dry sensitive skin. If you have combination or oily sensitive skin, the Probiosense Sensitive Skin Balm or the Soothing SOS Fluid are better suited. These have a lighter texture that soothes the skin without weighing it down.
How long does it take before I see results?
The soothing effect is often noticeable within a few hours. Redness and itching decrease immediately, while the tight feeling diminishes. For structural strengthening of the skin barrier and a lasting reduction in sensitivity, consistent use for an average of 4 to 6 weeks is necessary.
Can I use this cream if I have eczema or rosacea?
The formula is dermatologically tested and excellently tolerated by very sensitive skin. In cases of mild eczema reactions or rosacea, this cream can certainly provide relief. For active, severe skin conditions, we recommend consulting a dermatologist or skin therapist first for an appropriate treatment plan.
