How It Works

How It Works

The science behind silky, dry, comfortable skin folds.

A clinical look at how Alysora Intertrigo Relief Cream supports relief from common skin fold irritation — and why it behaves differently from creams, powders, and antifungals you may have tried.

The Problem in Skin Folds

Irritation in skin folds is rarely caused by one thing. It's the result of three conditions occurring in the same place at the same time — and most products only address one of them.

FACTOR 01

Moisture

Trapped sweat and humidity stay in the fold, creating a warm, damp environment.

FACTOR 02

Friction

Skin rubbing against skin breaks down the protective barrier.

FACTOR 03

Microbes

Yeast and bacteria thrive in this environment, causing odour and recurrence.

Antifungal creams kill microbes but leave the fold wetter. Powders absorb sweat but clump into paste. Barrier creams reduce friction but trap moisture. Alysora is designed to address all three at once.

The Dry-Down Mechanism

Alysora goes on as a silky cream and transforms within minutes into a breathable, powder-like protective layer. This fast dry-down is what allows it to work as an antifungal, barrier, and moisture absorber simultaneously.

01

Clean and dry the fold

Gently pat the area dry with a clean towel. Alysora is designed for broken, sensitive skin.

02

Apply a thin layer

A small amount spreads easily and absorbs without greasy residue.

03

The cream transforms

Within minutes, the formula forms a smooth, dry, powder-like coating between the folds.

04

An invisible barrier forms

A barely-there protective film reduces skin-on-skin friction throughout the day.

05

Continuous moisture absorption

As you move, sit, or sweat, the dry matrix continues to absorb moisture.

06

Daily prevention of recurrence

With consistent daily use, the fold stays dry, balanced, and less prone to microbial regrowth.

Inside the Formula

Six functional ingredients, each playing a specific role in the mechanism above.

Undecylenic Acid 10%
Primary Antifungal
  • Inhibits yeast and fungal overgrowth at the source
  • Helps prevent Candida from transforming into its invasive form
  • Reduces odour associated with microbial activity
  • Remains effective in high-humidity environments
Zinc Oxide 15%
Barrier & Anti-Irritant
  • Forms a breathable protective layer between skin folds
  • Soothes burning and stinging on sensitive skin
  • Helps neutralise odour-causing bacteria
  • Supports the skin's own healing process
Witch Hazel Distillate
Instant Drying & pH Balance
  • Rapidly reduces surface moisture
  • Tightens the skin surface, reducing seepage
  • Helps restore normal skin pH, slowing fungal regrowth
Microencapsulated Tea Tree Oil
Slow-Release Antimicrobial
  • Releases antifungal and antibacterial vapour throughout the day
  • Helps control odour over extended periods
  • Encapsulation preserves potency while avoiding the sting of raw tea tree oil
Silica + Tapioca Starch Complex
Anti-Paste Dry Matrix
  • Continuously absorbs sweat over time
  • Prevents the slimy feeling common in deep folds
  • Stays smooth — never forms rough balls or paste
  • Remains dry in heat, exercise, and humid conditions
Plant-Derived Glycerin
Moisture Balance
  • Maintains natural skin moisture balance without leaving the fold wet
  • Works with zinc oxide to support the skin barrier

What Makes It Different

Most products in this category only solve part of the problem while creating another. Antifungal creams leave an already-damp fold wetter. Powders clump once you start sweating. Barrier creams lock in moisture instead of absorbing it.

The key difference: Alysora is not just an antifungal — it's a hybrid of antifungal and powder barrier. It dries like a powder, protects like a barrier cream, and inhibits microbial activity like a medicated antifungal — all in a single application.

What's Not Inside

The formula is designed for sensitive, damaged, or healing skin, suitable for daily long-term use.

No Steroids No Artificial Fragrance No Petroleum No Parabens No Talc Cruelty-Free

Designed for Daily Use

Skin fold irritation is rarely a one-time event — for most people, it returns once the fold becomes warm and damp again. Alysora is designed for prevention of recurrence: even after visible irritation has cleared, continued daily use keeps the fold dry, balanced, and protected.
