According to Singapore dermatologist Dr Teo, “ A cold cream is traditionally a combination of emulsifiers and emollients. The skincare ingredients usually contain beeswax and humectants. The cold cream has been touted as an all-in one multi purpose skincare item. The truth is most modern moisturisers utilise the same active ingredients to improve barrier function. Humectants for example minimise transepidermal water loss.

Many eczema patients find their itchy skin symptoms relieved by the cold sensation. The science behind this is that the cold sensation activates temperature receptors in the skin.
