Doublebase

Product details

A high performance, long lasting emollient to relieve very dry skin. Also suitable for eczema, dermatitis and psoriasis.

- Widely prescribed formula
- Easily absorbed
- Free from colourings, fragrances, steroids, SLS, parabens and MI preservatives

The natural oils in healthy skin form a protective barrier which keeps moisture in and irritants out.

People with dry skin conditions, such as eczema, dermatitis or psoriasis, can have a shortage of these natural oils. The end result is dry, chapped, flaky skin which is more prone to irritation.

Many eczema creams, psoriasis creams and dermatitis creams have a high emollient oil content.
Doublebase Dry Skin combines this high emollient oil content with the easy absorption of a
gel. It also contains glycerol which is a humectant (it helps to hold onto water within the skin to
reduce dryness). This combination helps soften, moisturise and protect the skin by trapping moisture and restoring its natural protective barrier.
Doublebase Dry Skin’s innovative gel formulation breaks down when it comes in to contact
with natural salts in the skin; meaning it’s easily absorbed into the stratum corneum (top layer of
skin) and provides a lasting, protective barrier of oils, even after gentle washing.

From Diomed Developments, a family company with over 60 years' experience in providing prescription solutions for dermatological conditions, Doublebase Dry Skin Emollient is clinically proven to inhibit moisture loss and provide highly effective, prolonged protection against dryness.

Usage / Instructions Expand

Doublebase Dry Skin is for daily use by adults, children and infants. Use as often as required.

Before use, turn the top of the pump dispenser in the direction of the open arrow to unlock it.

Gently work the emollient into dry skin. To avoid blocking hair follicles, smooth in the same direction as hair growth.
Be gentle – rubbing in vigorously can irritate dry skin conditions.

For best results use every day, even when skin appears normal; making sure you don’t just concentrate on problem areas. This will help make sure your skin stays in good condition.
