This October, as the world observes Eczema Awareness Month, Aveeno®, the dermatologist-recommended skincare brand, stands in solidarity with Filipinos navigating the challenges of sensitive skin. For many, eczema is more than just dry, itchy skin; it's a condition that can deeply affect daily comfort, confidence, and overall well-being.
Aveeno®, with 80 years of clinical evidence for the benefits of oat on sensitive skin, is using this month to spotlight both the physical and emotional challenges of eczema while offering solutions grounded in empathy and clinical science. Through its impactful #SensitiveSkinWontStopUs campaign, Aveeno® reframes Eczema Awareness Month as a movement for resilience, education, and empowerment, inspiring individuals to embrace a life without limits. The campaign was initially launched during an event that featured sensitive skin sufferers sharing their own real life sensitive skin stories, and was amplified online through a TikTok hashtag challenge, encouraging sensitive skin sufferers to share their own experiences.
“Eczema is not only a skin condition; it's a journey that can challenge one's confidence and limit daily experiences,” says Ira Santos, Marketing Manager for Aveeno®. “Through our clinically proven oat science and the #SensitiveSkinWontStopUs campaign, we aim to foster a community where sensitive skin is understood, supported, and never a barrier to living fully. We are proud to highlight everything we've accomplished with this campaign, wrapping it all together to draw attention to the importance of Eczema Awareness Month.”
Further solidifying its expert-backed approach, Aveeno® is proud to announce that its Aveeno® Dermexa line is now recognized as the #1 most prescribed product for dermatitis by dermatologists. Formulated with Triple Oat Complex and Ceramides is specifically designed for very dry, itchy, and eczema-prone skin. It is clinically proven to relieve itchy sensations immediately, restore the skin barrier in as fast as 3 days, and deliver 24-hour hydration to help prevent flare-ups.
Board-certified
dermatologist, Dr. Mabelle Colayco, MD, FPDS, a fellow of the Philippine Dermatological Society
(PDS), emphasizes the importance of Aveeno®'s approach, “Effective eczema management hinges on strengthening the
skin barrier with scientifically backed ingredients like colloidal oatmeal and
ceramides. By consistently using products that support this, individuals can
significantly reduce flare-ups, improve their skin health, and ultimately,
enhance their overall quality of life, allowing them to pursue their passions
unhindered.” Dr. Colayco’s
insights were also shared during the Watsons Derm Skin activation, a
partnership between Watsons and PDS, where Aveeno® was a featured brand.
This Eczema Awareness Month, Aveeno® amplifies the voices of Filipinos
who embody
resilience. Celebrity mom Coleen
Garcia, fitness creator Vince Velasco, and beauty content creator Enzo
Villacorta share
their compelling personal journeys, demonstrating how they navigate flare-ups
while thriving in their personal and professional lives, inspiring others to do
the same.
Enzo Villacorta, a key voice in the
#SensitiveSkinWontStopUs campaign, shares his inspiring journey: "My
sensitive skin journey started when I was around 20 years old. I ignored the
signs at first, until my situation started to get really
bad. I had rashes on my body, raw patches, and flaky skin. I don’t even
have much pictures of this time because of how much
I hated it. And being ashamed of my skin is what made me feel alone with what I
was going through… I personally use the Skin Relief line for everyday
management, and I also use the Dermexa Wash and Lotion on days when skin is
really going through it. I’m not saying that these body lotions will make your
eczema go away, but it does make it so much easier to manage. Having sensitive
skin is normal, and something this common should never hold us back. It should
never put a stop to your daily life."
Beyond targeted care for eczema-prone skin, Aveeno® offers a comprehensive regimen for everyday sensitive skin management. Aveeno® Skin Relief is formulated with Triple Oat
Complex to soothe and protect dry, itchy, and sensitive skin in as fast as 20
seconds. It provides long-lasting hydration while strengthening the skin’s
natural barrier, helping reduce dryness and discomfort caused by daily triggers
like weather, sweat, or stress. On the other hand, Aveeno® Calm + Restore
features naturally
derived ingredients like prebiotic oat and calming feverfew, provides
a gentle solution to soothe dryness,
calm irritation, and maintain a healthy skin barrier on the face,
ensuring continuous comfort and protection.
