Locobase Protect cream

Locobase is a well-known skincare brand specifically developed for very dry and sensitive skin. Originally, the brand was part of the portfolio of Yamanouchi Pharmaceutical, a Japanese company that later merged with Fujisawa to form Astellas Pharma. The brand established a strong medical reputation for its high fat content and effectiveness in repairing the skin barrier.

Over the years, the brand underwent various ownership changes as pharmaceutical giants divested their consumer health segments. It was later acquired by Karo Healthcare (formerly Karo Pharma), a Swedish consumer healthcare company. While the brand has its roots in international pharmaceutical research, it is currently managed by Karo Healthcare, which oversees its distribution across Northern Europe and beyond. The manufacturing of Locobase products is primarily conducted in specialized facilities in Italy, catering to international quality standards for medical-grade skincare.
