Will it sting?
Reprieve is fragrance-free and formulated with sensitive skin in mind, using a short list of calming, moisture-binding ingredients rather than unnecessary extras. We can't promise every person's skin will react the same way — everyone's sensitivity is different — but it's built to be gentle enough for daily use on reactive, easily-irritated skin. As with any new skincare product, we recommend patch testing first.
Is it fragranced?
No. Reprieve is fragrance-free, made for skin that seems to react to everything.
Will it feel sticky or greasy?
No — it's designed to be lightweight and fast-absorbing, with a comfortable, non-greasy finish.
Can I use it every day?
Yes. Reprieve is designed as a simple daily step — apply, moisturise, get on with your day.
Can I use it between flares?
Yes. Reprieve is positioned specifically for the days between flares — gentle daily moisture and barrier support when you're not in an active flare-up.
Can I use it alongside treatment prescribed by my doctor?
Reprieve is designed to sit alongside your existing routine. Many people use it as their everyday moisturising step in addition to whatever their doctor has prescribed. If you're unsure how it fits with your specific treatment plan, check with your doctor.
Is it meant to replace my steroid treatment?
No. Reprieve is a cosmetic daily moisturiser, not a medical treatment. It is not intended to treat, cure, or replace any prescribed treatment for lichen sclerosus.
Can I use it before exercise or swimming?
Yes, it can be part of your daily routine on days with exercise, sweat, or swimming. Keeping skin moisturised may help make friction from movement and tight clothing more comfortable, though it isn't a guarantee against friction or irritation.
Can it help with dryness and friction?
Reprieve is formulated to support the skin's moisture barrier and reduce the feeling of dryness, which can be a factor in friction-related discomfort during everyday movement.
Is it suitable for very sensitive skin?
Yes — it was formulated specifically for delicate, easily-irritated skin, with a fragrance-free, pared-back ingredient list.
Reprieve is a cosmetic moisturiser for daily comfort and skin barrier support. It is not a medical treatment and does not treat, cure, or replace prescribed treatment for lichen sclerosus or any medical condition. Always consult your doctor about your specific treatment plan.
