Product Overview
QV Gentle Wash 250ml is a mild, soap-free cleansing wash designed to gently cleanse and hydrate dry, sensitive or eczema-prone skin while maintaining the skin’s natural barrier.
Description
QV Gentle Wash – 250 ml is a mild, soap-free cleansing wash developed by QV / Ego Pharmaceuticals for the daily cleansing of dry, sensitive and eczema-prone skin. It is specifically formulated to cleanse effectively without stripping the skin’s natural oils, helping to maintain the skin barrier and prevent further dryness or irritation.
Unlike traditional soaps and foaming cleansers that can disrupt the skin’s protective barrier, QV Gentle Wash contains moisturising ingredients that help retain hydration while cleansing, making it suitable for use on both the face and body. Its low-irritant, pH-balanced formulation is free from fragrance, colour, lanolin and propylene glycol, reducing the risk of sensitivity reactions.
- QV Gentle Wash is suitable for all ages, including infants, children and adults, and is commonly recommended as part of a skincare routine for conditions such as eczema (atopic dermatitis), psoriasis, dermatitis, xerosis and general dry skin. It can be used daily in the bath or shower and is ideal as a gentle alternative to soap.
