Product Overview
A bath emollient that helps relieve dry, itchy and eczema-prone skin by softening and moisturising during bathing.
Description
Oilatum Emollient Bath Additive 500ml is a soap-free emollient treatment designed to relieve and protect dry, itchy and eczema-prone skin. It works by forming a light protective film over the skin’s surface, helping to lock in moisture, soften the skin and prevent further drying.
This bath additive is suitable for daily use by adults, children and infants, including babies, and is commonly recommended in pharmacy practice for conditions such as:
- Eczema (atopic dermatitis)
- Psoriasis
- Ichthyosis
- Other dry skin conditions
Oilatum Emollient does not contain soap, fragrances, or colourants, making it suitable for sensitive skin. It can be used as part of a regular emollient skincare routine, especially when ordinary soaps or bubble baths may worsen dryness.
