Product Overview
QV Skin Lotion 250ml is a light, non‑greasy body lotion that soothes and hydrates dry skin while protecting the skin’s natural moisture barrier. Ideal for eczema, dermatitis and sensitive skin types.
Description
QV® Skin Lotion 250ml is a lightweight, fast-absorbing emollient moisturising lotion designed to help relieve and protect dry, sensitive and eczema-prone skin. It is ideal for everyday use where skin needs frequent hydration without a heavy or greasy feel.
QV® Skin Lotion works by rehydrating the skin and supporting the natural skin barrier, helping to reduce moisture loss and relieve dryness, tightness and mild itching. Its lighter consistency makes it particularly suitable for daytime use, hairy areas, warmer climates, or for people who prefer a lotion rather than a cream or ointment.
The formulation is fragrance-free, colour-free and low-irritant, making it suitable for sensitive skin, including skin prone to eczema or dermatitis. It can be used on both the face and body and is suitable for adults, children and infants.
