What is Epaderm Cream For Dry Skin
Doctors recommend Epaderm Cream to improve skin hydration for people suffering from dry skin, eczema, or psoriasis.
With its clinically proven ingredients, Epaderm Cream can effectively moisturise and soften the skin.
Epaderm Cream is suitable for the whole family, including babies.
It is free from colourings and fragrances making it suitable for treating a wide range of skin conditions.
Epaderm Cream has no fragrances or colourings making it ideal for treating a wide range of dry skin conditions. It is especially effective if applied immediately after washing or swimming to counteract the loss of essential oils from the skin.
What can cause dry skin and how to prevent it
Dry skin can be caused by:
•The weather.
•Heat.
•Hot baths and showers.
•Swimming.
•Harsh soaps and detergents.
A lack of humidity due to the weather or heaters reduces skin moisture. Long, hot baths and showers dry out the skin. Swimming and harsh soaps and detergents can strip the body of its natural oils, drying out the skin.
•Try not to stay in areas with dry air too long.
•Wear clothing that is soft and lets your skin breathe.
•Use mild, non-perfumed skin products.
•Have shorter, cooler showers and baths
How to use Epaderm Cream For Dry Skin
As an emollient:
Apply Epaderm Cream generously and massage into the affected area. Use as and when it's needed.
As a cleanser:
Use Epaderm Cream as needed when washing or showering. When caring for dry skin conditions, The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) recommends washing with emollients rather than detergents or soaps, as these can increase water loss from the skin. Using Epaderm Cream as a skin cleanser helps ensure that dry skin can be properly washed, without losing additional moisture.
