Epaderm Ointment 125g

Dry skin conditions such as eczema, psoriasis, and dermatitis occur when the skin's natural barrier is compromised, leading to water loss and an uncomfortable, flaky, or itchy sensation. Epaderm Ointment 125g helps to combat this by forming a semi-occlusive layer on the skin's surface, effectively locking in moisture and preventing further dehydration. Its clinically proven ingredients work together to restore the skin's smoothness, softness, and flexibility.

Versatile Skincare Solution for All Ages

One of the key benefits of Epaderm Ointment 125g is its versatility. It can be used in three different ways, making it a comprehensive solution for managing various dry skin conditions and suitable for the whole family, including babies:

• As an Emollient: Apply directly to the skin to provide long-lasting hydration throughout the day. Regular use helps to prevent the skin from drying out and reduces the frequency of flare-ups.
• As a Skin Cleanser: Use as a soap substitute when washing. Traditional soaps can strip the skin of its natural oils, exacerbating dryness. Epaderm Ointment 125g cleanses gently while moisturising, making it ideal for sensitive skin.
• As a Bath Additive: Add to bath water to create a soothing, moisturising bath. This helps to hydrate the skin all over the body, reducing dryness and discomfort during and after bathing.

Free from fragrances, colourings, and Sodium Lauryl Sulphate (SLS), Epaderm Ointment 125g is an excellent choice for those with sensitive skin.

Always wash your hands thoroughly before applying Epaderm Ointment 125g.

• As an Emollient: Apply to the skin as often as required.
• As a Skin Cleanser: Use as required when washing or in the shower.
• As a Bath Additive: Melt a little Epaderm Ointment 125g in a container of hot water and shake to mix thoroughly. Allow to cool and add to the bath, but please be careful as this will make the bath surface slippery. After bathing, gently pat skin dry with a soft, clean towel.
