Dry Skin Wash Gel contains highly moisturising ingredients (emollient oils) to help soothe and prevent flare ups of dry, chapped or irritated skin. It is suitable for people of all ages who may be prone to eczema, psoriasis and dermatitis to avoid the drying and irritant effect of using soap (liquids or bars) and detergents. The unique, protective, soap-free hand cleanser has an immediate hydrating effect and can be used every day to keep hands clean without drying. It can also be used as a hand lotion after washing.
Like all medicines, Doublebase Dry Skin Wash Gel can cause side effects, although not everybody gets them.
This product has been specially designed for use on dry or problem skin. However, in rare cases it can cause skin irritation (mild rashes) or allergic skin reactions on extremely sensitive skin.
These rare effects tend to occur during or soon after the first few uses.
If you experience these or any other side effects while using this product seek advice from your doctor or pharmacist.
Do not use Doublebase Dry Skin Wash Gel if you are allergic to isopropyl myristate, liquid paraffin or any of the ingredients of Doublebase Emollient Shower Gel.
This product can make your shower tray (or bath surface) slippery if used in these areas, so be careful to avoid slipping over on these surfaces (e.g. by using a shower or bath mat). Clean out the shower tray with a suitable detergent to remove any remaining greasiness (wearing protective gloves to avoid irritating your hands).
Paraffin is a common, important and very effective ingredient in emollient products applied to the skin. However, care should be taken as emollients which soak into medical dressings, fabrics or furnishings can increase the flammability of these items.
Please note, patients using emollients or soap substitutes should take particular care to avoid these materials coming into contact with naked flames or lit cigarettes, etc. As a precaution, dressings, bedding, clothing, etc., should be changed frequently and laundered thoroughly.
Please read the patient information leaflet before using this product.
Keep out of the reach and sight of children.
