Oilatum Plus Antiseptic Emollient Bath Additive

Why We Chose This Product

• Oilatum plus is an antiseptic solution that you add to the bath. 
• Oilatum plus also contains the antiseptic ingredients triclosan and benzalkonium chloride. These helps remove bacteria from the skin and prevent skin infections in eczema. A study showed that these can reduce the amount of a bad baceteria called S. aureus on the skin. 
• It also contains moisturisers that add extra moisture to the skin.
• Oilatum plus can also be used for people with eczema who haven't had skin infections (as all people with eczema are at risk of skin infections).  
  
• This product contains no fragrances or colourings, so it is less likely to cause an allergic reaction (contact allergy) to the skin.
  

• Suitable for adults, children and babies over 6 months old

Cautions

• Use of bath oils can be a slip hazard
• Oilatum plus contains paraffin which is flammable.   
• Oilatum plus does contain some preservatives so there is a small risk of allergic reaction. Do not use if you are allergic to any of the ingredients listed.
• Oilatum plus contains benzalkonium chloride and detergents so it can sometimes irritate the skin. 
• Avoid contact with the eyes. In case of contact, rinse thoroughly with water.
