• Tori Spelling shares her and her family’s journey with eczema and seborrheic dermatitis to encourage others to take control of their skin health
  • ZORYVE® (roflumilast) is the #1 prescribed branded topical therapy for three major inflammatory skin conditions combined – eczema, plaque psoriasis, and seborrheic dermatitis

WESTLAKE VILLAGE, Calif., Oct. 30, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Arcutis Biotherapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: ARQT ), a commercial-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing meaningful innovations in immuno-dermatology, today announced the Free to Be Me awareness campaign featuring actress Tori Spelling, and her daughter, Stella (17). The campaign aims to shed light on the emotional and physical burden of inflammatory skin diseases for the approximately 36 million Americans living with conditions such as atopic dermatitis (the most common form of eczema) and seborrheic dermatitis — and to inspire people to work with their healthcare providers to find long-term treatment options for their chronic skin diseases.

Through Free to Be Me , Tori shares her story of working with her healthcare provider to manage her and her daughter’s skin conditions with the help of ZORYVE® (roflumilast), a dermatologist-trusted and FDA-approved topical treatment. Her journey, like so many others, included trying countless prescription and over-the-counter products to help calm her and her daughter’s skin before finally finding a long-term treatment option with the help of her clinician. Tori and Stella’s stories also highlight the impact that living with these skin conditions had on the entire family, including uncomfortable flares, sleepless nights, and missing life events — a reminder that skin conditions don’t just affect the individual but often impact families and daily life in meaningful ways.

“Managing a chronic skin condition like eczema isn’t just about appearance — it’s about how you feel, how you show up for yourself and family, and how confidently you live your life,” said Tori Spelling, mother, actress, best-selling author, executive producer, and successful podcast host. “Both my daughter and I have struggled with eczema, and she has also lived with seborrheic dermatitis, so we know how frustrating and persistent these skin conditions can be. Finding ZORYVE, a once-daily, steroid-free topical that works to clear the redness and itching, while being gentle on our skin, has truly changed the way we manage our skin diseases. And having clearer skin has helped us feel more confident in our own skin every day.”

“Throughout my career I have seen firsthand how chronic skin conditions like eczema and seborrheic dermatitis can take their toll, affecting not only the skin, but one's overall quality of life from work to play,” said Dr. Adam Friedman, professor and chair of dermatology at the George Washington University School of Medicine and Health Sciences. “Because these are lifelong conditions, patients need treatment options that are both safe and effective for the long haul. These include nonsteroidal topicals like ZORYVE, which in turn gives patients and healthcare practitioners confidence that we can manage these diseases continuously without compromise."

ZORYVE cream 0.15% is indicated for the treatment of atopic dermatitis in adults and children 6 years of age and older. In two clinical trials of over 1,300 people, ZORYVE rapidly improved eczema symptoms such as redness, itching, and rash with once-daily treatment — with nearly a third (31% of the 884 people) achieving clear or almost clear skin at 4 weeks with ZORYVE cream compared to 14% of the 453 people using inactive cream.

ZORYVE foam 0.3% is indicated for the treatment of seborrheic dermatitis in adults and children 9 years of age and older. ZORYVE foam provides rapid disease clearance and significant reduction in itch, with 77% of the 458 individuals using ZORYVE foam achieving clear or almost clear skin after 8 weeks of treatment compared to 53% of the 225 people using inactive foam in two clinical trials.

“From the bright lights of television and red-carpet appearances, Tori Spelling understands how visible skin conditions can impact confidence, daily routines, and family life — both personally and as a parent,” said Todd Edwards, chief commercial officer of Arcutis. “Her willingness to speak openly helps break the stigma and empowers others to take control of their skin health by talking with their provider about advanced targeted topicals like ZORYVE. This campaign reinforces Arcutis’ leadership in providing solutions for common inflammatory skin conditions — including atopic dermatitis and seborrheic dermatitis — empowering individuals and their physicians with flexible treatment options to meet their unique needs from head to toe.”

ZORYVE is backed by robust clinical evidence, including eight pivotal trials involving approximately 4,200 participants. These studies consistently demonstrate that ZORYVE cream and foam are safe and well tolerated. The most common side effects with ZORYVE cream 0.15% for eczema are headache, nausea, application site pain, and diarrhea, and with ZORYVE foam 0.3% for seborrheic dermatitis are common cold, nausea, and headache. The adverse event profiles of ZORYVE cream and ZORYVE foam in the long-term studies with up to a year of treatment were consistent with those seen in the clinical studies.

About ZORYVE® (roflumilast)
ZORYVE is the number one prescribed branded topical therapy across three major inflammatory dermatoses combined — atopic dermatitis, seborrheic dermatitis, and plaque psoriasis. ZORYVE is a topical formulation of roflumilast, an advanced targeted topical phosphodiesterase type 4 (PDE4) inhibitor. Inhibiting PDE4, an intracellular enzyme that is an established target in dermatology, decreases the production of pro-inflammatory mediators. This decreases inflammation in the skin and balances the skin’s immune system.

Demonstrating both clinical impact and broad industry recognition, ZORYVE has been honored with multiple prestigious awards and recommendations. ZORYVE was recently awarded by Allure with the "2025 Best of Beauty Breakthrough Award," making it the first FDA-approved medication for atopic dermatitis, plaque psoriasis, and seborrheic dermatitis to win this prominent award. ZORYVE cream 0.3% and ZORYVE foam 0.3% were also awarded the National Psoriasis Foundation’s Seal of Recognition — the first FDA-approved prescription brand to receive the honor. Additionally, the American Academy of Dermatology (AAD) issued a strong recommendation for the use of ZORYVE cream 0.15% in adult patients with mild to moderate atopic dermatitis, according to updated guidelines released in June 2025. In 2024, ZORYVE cream 0.15% was awarded Glamour’s Beauty and Wellness Award for “Best Eczema Product.”
