Oilatum Emollient 500ml Bath emollient for the treatment of dry and itchy skin conditions

Oilatum Emollient is a medicated bath emollient designed to provide intensive hydration and relief for dry, itchy, and eczema-prone skin. It contains light liquid paraffin BP (63.4% w/w), which helps to replenish moisture, soothe irritation, and form a protective barrier to prevent further dryness.

Unlike traditional bath products that can strip away natural skin oils, Oilatum Emollient is designed to be used with water, allowing the skin to retain moisture and stay hydrated after bathing.

How Does Oilatum Emollient Work?

The skin has a natural protective barrier that helps lock in moisture and keep irritants out. However, people with eczema, dermatitis, and dry skin conditions often have a weakened skin barrier, leading to moisture loss, irritation, and inflammation.

Oilatum Emollient works by:

  • Forming a protective layer over the skin to lock in moisture.
  • Reducing water loss to help prevent dryness and irritation.
  • Soothing itchy and inflamed skin, making it ideal for eczema-prone skin.
  • Replenishing essential oils lost due to frequent washing or exposure to harsh weather conditions.

Directions for Use

Oilatum Emollient should always be used with water.

For Adults, Including the Elderly:

  • Add 1 to 3 capfuls to an 8-inch bath of water.
  • Bathe for 10 to 20 minutes.
  • Pat dry with a towel instead of rubbing.
  • Alternatively, apply a small amount onto wet skin, rinse off, and pat dry.

For Infants and Children:

  • Add ½ to 2 capfuls to a small bath of water.
  • Apply gently over the entire body using a sponge.
  • Pat dry with a towel.
