EPIMAX Isomol Gel 100g

EPIMAX Isomol Gel 100g is a soothing emollient gel developed to help moisturise, soften and protect dry, itchy and irritated skin. It is suitable for people affected by eczema, psoriasis and other dry skin conditions, and is designed for frequent everyday use as part of a regular skincare routine. EPIMAX describes the formula as a hydro-gel that balances the comfort of a cream with the more intensive relief associated with an ointment.

The gel provides a cooling effect on the skin, helping to calm itch and discomfort while supporting lasting hydration. This makes it particularly useful for skin that feels hot, irritated, tight or prone to scratching. Used regularly, it can help reduce dryness and improve skin comfort by supporting the skin’s moisture barrier.

EPIMAX Isomol Gel can be used both as a leave-on emollient and as a body wash substitute, making it a flexible option for daily cleansing and moisturising. The 100g tube is convenient for home use, work, travel or carrying in a bag for repeat application through the day. The formula is SLS-free, lanolin-free, paraben-free, gluten-free, perfume-free and vegan.
