Free from perfume, colouring, steroids, SLS (Sodium Lauryl Sulphate) and suitable for all ages, including babies.
Areas of Use:
- A 3-in-1 emollient that can be used as an additive in the bath, an emollient, as well as a skin cleanser.
- Used for eczema, psoriasis, and all other dry skin conditions.
Just 3 ingredients:
- Liquid Paraffin (Ph. Eur.): Also known as mineral oil, liquid paraffin acts as an occlusive agent, forming a protective film on the skin. It helps retain moisture and prevents water loss.
- Ceto macrogol Emulsifying Wax BP: This emulsifying wax combines Ceto stearyl alcohol and macrogol Ceto stearyl ether. It serves as a stabilizer, allowing the oil and water components in the ointment to mix uniformly.
- Yellow Soft Paraffin BP: Yellow soft paraffin is another form of mineral oil. It provides additional moisturisation and helps soften the skin.

How to use Epaderm Ointment
As an emollient: apply to wet or dry skin as often as required.
As a skin cleanser: scoop a small amount from the tub onto your hand and lather it up with warm water; then use it as a normal soap.
As a bath additive: melt around 4g in a tumbler of hot water, then add it to the bath once it is sufficiently cool. Be careful as Epaderm Ointment will make the bath slippery, and never apply hot water directly to dry skin.
