Product Overview
Long-lasting, hypoallergenic barrier cream for protection against moisture and irritants while soothing dry skin. Suitable for everyday skin care.
Description
Cavilon Durable Barrier Cream 92g is a highly concentrated, long-lasting barrier cream designed to provide effective shielding and moisturisation for intact and at-risk skin. Formulated with advanced 3M polymer technology, this fragrance-free, pH-balanced cream creates a durable, breathable protective layer that resists wash-off and protects skin from irritation caused by moisture, friction, bodily fluids and other environmental aggressors.
It is ideal for individuals prone to dry, chapped or sensitive skin, including those with incontinence-associated dermatitis risk, skin exposed to adhesives or medical tapes, and people seeking a reliable, long-lasting moisturising barrier. Its concentrated formula means that only a small amount is needed to cover the affected area, making the product economical and efficient.
Key Benefits
• Long-lasting protection and moisturisation for dry, sensitive skin.
• Waterproof and wash-resistant barrier, reducing the need for frequent reapplication.
• Hypoallergenic, pH-balanced and fragrance-free — suitable for sensitive skin.
• Allows adhesives, tapes and dressings to stick without interfering with adhesion.
• Concentrated formula; a pea-sized amount goes a long way.
How to Use
Follow the advice of a healthcare professional and refer to any product leaflet supplied.
- Ensure skin is clean and dry before application.
- Apply a small, pea-sized amount of Cavilon Durable Barrier Cream to the area requiring protection.
- Gently spread to form a thin, even layer over the surface.
- For best results on dry or at-risk skin, apply daily or as needed.
- For use in incontinence care, reapply at intervals recommended in care protocols (e.g., after every third episode of incontinence or wash).
? Do not use under adhesive products if the skin is fragile, as the cream may increase adhesion.
