About Doublebase Once Emollient

Doublebase Once Emollient is a highly moisturising leave-on emollient gel designed to treat dry skin conditions such as eczema, dermatitis, psoriasis, and ichthyosis. It helps to soften, hydrate, and protect the skin by forming a long-lasting barrier that locks in moisture and reduces water loss from the skin surface.

Doublebase Once Emollient contains isopropyl myristate 15% w/w and liquid paraffin 15% w/w, which work together to restore the skin’s natural moisture balance and relieve dryness, scaling, itching, and irritation.

It is suitable for adults, children, and the elderly, and is gentle enough for regular daily use. The formulation is fragrance-free and designed to be applied once daily or as directed by a healthcare professional.
