Product Description

Doublebase Dry Skin Gel 250g

    Why We Chose This Product

    • Doublebase is a gel. Gels have a light texture and are rapidly absorbed into the skin. This makes Doublebase feel less greasy than other heavier moisturisers. 
    • A study looking at different type of moisturisers found that gels were as effective for eczema as creams and ointments, so individual preference is the most important factor.  
    • Doublebase comes as a pump dispenser, this is useful as it prevents bacteria from contaminating the bottle. 
    • Doublebase contains no fragrances or colourings, so it is less likely to cause an allergic reaction (contact allergy) to the skin. 
    • Doublebase can be used directly on the skin or as a soap substitute. 
    • Suitable for adults and children including babies.

    Cautions

    • Use of moisturisers in the bath can or shower be a slip hazard
    • Moisturisers are flammable. Over long periods moisturisers can build-up on fabric (clothing, bedding etc), making these materials flammable. Washing clothing and bedding may reduce this build-up but not totally remove it.  
    • Doublebase does contain some preservatives so there is a small risk of allergic reaction. For people with allergy prone skin, ointments such as Epaderm ointment are better. Do not use if you are allergic to any of the ingredients listed.
