Epizone E Ointment is a fragrance-free, emulsifying ointment used primarily as a heavy-duty emollient for treating very dry, sensitive, and irritated skin conditions. It is gentle enough for use on babies, children, and adults
Key uses:
- Moisturizer for very dry skin: Epizone E is specifically formulated as a rich, hydrating moisturizer for extremely dry skin. It helps to trap moisture in the skin, providing long-lasting hydration.
- Treatment of skin conditions: It is effective in treating various dry skin conditions, such as:
- Eczema: Epizone E can help to soothe the dry, itchy, and irritated patches associated with eczema.
- Psoriasis: It provides emollient and soothing relief for people with psoriasis.
Nappy rash: The ointment can be used to treat and protect against nappy rash by forming a protective barrier on the skin.
- Cradle cap: This ointment can be used to moisturize the scalp and assist in the removal of scales associated with cradle cap.
- Soap substitute: When lathered with lukewarm water, Epizone E can be used as a gentle soap substitute. This is especially beneficial for people with dry and sensitive skin, as it cleanses without stripping the skin of its natural oils.
How to use
Epizone E can be used in a variety of ways for skin care and cleansing:
- As a moisturizer: Apply the ointment to the affected areas of the skin, massaging it in gently. It is often recommended to apply it after a bath or shower to help lock in moisture.
- As a soap substitute: Rub a small amount of the ointment over the skin while bathing, then rinse it off with lukewarm water.
- For intensive treatment: For very dry or cracked areas like elbows, knees, and heels, it can be applied more liberally, especially at night, for intense repair.
Benefits
- Gentle formulation: Epizone E is fragrance-free and colour-free, which minimizes the risk of irritation and makes it suitable for sensitive skin and babies.
- Non-greasy feel: Despite being an ointment, it is formulated to soften the skin without leaving a greasy after-feel.
