Doublebase Once Tube 100g

Doublebase Once Emollient 100g is an advanced, highly moisturising and protective emollient gel specially formulated to provide 24-hour hydration from just one application. It is designed for the management of dry skin conditions such as eczema, psoriasis, dermatitis and ichthyosis, helping to moisturise, soften and protect dry skin throughout the day.

Its advanced formulation combines 15% glycerol, 15% isopropyl myristate and 15% liquid paraffin to provide intensive moisturisation and help reduce moisture loss. The formulation also contains a combination of ingredients designed to help retain hydration in the skin for longer, making it particularly convenient for people who find frequent reapplication of emollients difficult.

The convenient 100g tube is ideal for keeping at home, in a bag or when travelling. Doublebase Once is suitable for all ages, including babies, and can also be used as a soap substitute when washing to help prevent further drying of the skin.

How Doublebase Once Works

Dry skin can lose moisture because the skin's natural protective barrier is weakened. Doublebase Once uses a combination of humectant and emollient ingredients to help hydrate the skin, reduce moisture loss and maintain softness.

The formulation is designed to provide long-lasting hydration, meaning it can be applied once daily while continuing to moisturise the skin throughout the day. Clinical information from the manufacturer reports that Doublebase Once provides greater and longer-lasting hydration than comparator ointments following a single application.

Directions for Use

Gently smooth Doublebase Once over and around all dry skin areas once daily or as often as needed. Use a few gentle strokes in the direction of hair growth and avoid vigorous rubbing.

If necessary, allow a little time for any excess gel to absorb into the skin.

Doublebase Once can also be used as a soap substitute when washing. Apply and use in the same way as ordinary soap to help prevent washing from causing further dryness.

If another treatment is being applied to the same areas of skin, avoid mixing the products together and follow the advice provided by your healthcare professional.
