Venusia Max Cream is an intensive moisturiser from Dr. Reddy’s for dry and very dry skin. It blends shea butter, cocoa butter, mango butter, and aloe butter with glycerin and dimethicone. The butters soften rough patches. Glycerin draws water in. Dimethicone slows that water from leaving the skin. A small amount of zinc oxide sits in the base as a skin protectant. Use it on the face and body when skin feels tight, flaky or rough. It is a cosmetic cream, not a treatment for infection or a steroid-level eczema flare.

How Does It Work?
The four butters are emollients. They fill the tiny gaps in a dry surface so skin feels smoother. Glycerin is a humectant that pulls water toward the outer layer. Dimethicone forms a light seal that cuts moisture loss. Zinc oxide adds a mild protective film. Together, they ease tightness. They do not kill germs or replace a prescribed cream.
Directions For Use
Wash and pat the skin dry. Slightly damp skin holds the cream better.
Take a small amount and spread a thin layer.
Massage gently on the face, hands, elbows, legs, or other dry areas.
Use once or twice a day, or more often on very dry spots if your doctor says so.
Keep it out of the eyes and mouth.
For external use only.
Safety Information
Stop if redness, burning, or a rash gets worse.
Avoid broken, infected, or weeping skin unless a doctor advises it.
Do not use it as a substitute for a prescribed eczema or steroid cream.
Zinc oxide here is not a rated sunscreen. Use a proper sunscreen in the sun.
Patch-test if your skin reacts easily to fragrance or rich creams.
Keep out of children’s reach, so it is not swallowed.
Store in a cool, dry place. Close the cap after use. Do not freeze.
Possible Side Effects
Mild sting on very chapped skin
Greasy feel if applied thickly
Redness or itch if you are sensitive to fragrance
Rare allergic rash
Blocked feel on oily areas if overused
FAQs
Q1. What is Venusia Max Cream used for?
Ans. It is an intensive moisturiser for dry and very dry skin. The butters and glycerin soften roughness and help the skin retain moisture.
Q2. Can I use it on my face every day?
Ans. Yes, if your skin is dry and it does not sting. Use a thin layer morning and night. Oily or acne-prone skin may find it too rich.
Q3. Is it the same as Venusia Baby lotion?
Ans. No. Both use similar butters, but Max is a richer cream for dry and very dry skin. Baby lotion is a lighter daily lotion for infants.
Q4. Will it heal eczema?
Ans. It can soften dry skin around a flare, but it does not treat eczema itself. Infected, oozing, or very itchy patches need a doctor’s cream.
Q5. Does the zinc oxide work as sunscreen?
Ans. No. The amount is for skin comfort, not a labelled sun protection factor. Wear a separate sunscreen when you go out in the sun.
Q6. How should Venusia Max Cream be stored?
Ans. Keep the tube closed in a cool, dry place, away from heat and sunlight. Do not freeze it, and store it out of children’s reach.
