Use Epaderm Ointment as a primer
Getting the most out of your skincare products is essential, and those with persistent dry skin conditions are always in need of tips to help minimise their symptoms and bring consistent and lasting relief.

Mölnlycke take pride in creating truly versatile skincare solutions; this means that the Epaderm range can be used in a multitude of ways. When it comes to effective skincare, there are few treatments more successful than emollient therapies.
Epaderm 3 in 1 Ointment can be used in a variety of ways, which allows you to tailor your skincare routine to suit your symptoms and lifestyle.
The first use for Epaderm Ointment is as a direct emollient solution, in which the emollient is applied directly and liberally onto problem areas, ideally twice daily.
Some soaps and detergent containing products can dehydrate skin, and to combat this, Epaderm Ointment may also serve as a skin-friendly and hydrating skin cleanser. This helps lock in vital moisture and eliminates potentially problematic elements from other cleansers. Simply take a small amount and lather under warm water to use as a cleanser.
Stress is linked to the worsening of many dry skin conditions, so why not take a more relaxing approach to skincare. Epaderm Ointment is perfect for use alongside a relaxing bath. Our unique formula contains no fragrances, colourings, or additives, making it suitable for use as a hydrating bath soak. Simply melt a £2 coin sized amount in a small tumbler or jug of warm water and add this to your bath to help unwind and give your skin all the support it needs.
Any or all of these approaches may be appropriate for most dry skin conditions, and because regular and ample use of emollients has been shown to improve dry skin conditions, you are free to experiment with any or all of them in order to find your ideal routine.
