Description

Epimax Moisturising Cream for softer, more comfortable skin

Epimax Moisturising Cream is the EPIMAX® range's everyday, all-purpose moisturiser, made to keep dry skin at bay so it feels soft and comfortable. It's formulated with dry skin in mind as a light cream that's easily absorbed, which suits daily use on eczema, psoriasis and other dry skin conditions. On Epimax's own relief scale it sits at "light relief", for everyday moisturisation.

Why choose Epimax Moisturising Cream for everyday dry skin:

  • Light, easily absorbed cream: for daily moisturisation without a heavy feel.
  • Three moisturising ingredients: white soft paraffin 14.5%, light liquid paraffin 12.6% and anhydrous lanolin 1%.
  • For the whole family: suitable for children over the age of one month.
  • SLS-free, perfume-free and gluten-free.
  • 500g tottle: a top-down bottle that's easy to squeeze.

How it differs from Epimax Original Cream

Epimax Moisturising Cream contains 12.6% light liquid paraffin (Original has 6% liquid paraffin) and adds 1% anhydrous lanolin. It's preserved with parabens, so unlike Original it isn't lanolin-free, paraben-free or vegan. If you'd like a lanolin-free option, see the rest of the Epimax range.

FAQ

What is the difference between Epimax Moisturising Cream and Epimax Original Cream?

Both are everyday emollients for dry skin. Epimax Moisturising Cream contains white soft paraffin 14.5%, light liquid paraffin 12.6% and anhydrous lanolin 1%, while Epimax Original Cream contains white soft paraffin 15% and liquid paraffin 6% with no lanolin. Epimax Moisturising Cream also uses paraben preservatives, so Epimax Original is the choice if you want a lanolin-free, paraben-free or vegan cream.

Is Epimax Moisturising Cream suitable if I'm sensitive to lanolin or parabens?

No. Epimax Moisturising Cream contains anhydrous lanolin, methyl hydroxybenzoate and propyl hydroxybenzoate (parabens), and cetostearyl alcohol. If you know you react to any of these, choose a cream without them and ask one of our pharmacists if you're unsure.

Can Epimax Moisturising Cream be used on babies?

Epimax Moisturising Cream is suitable for the whole family, including children over the age of one month. For a baby under one month, or for skin that is broken, badly cracked, infected or bleeding, speak to a doctor or healthcare professional first.
