FAQs

Can I use QV Bath Oil if I don't have dry skin?

While QV Bath Oil is specifically formulated for dry and sensitive skin, it can be used by anyone seeking a moisturizing bath experience. It helps to maintain skin hydration.

How often should I use QV Bath Oil?

You can use QV Bath Oil daily or as needed, especially during bathing or showering, to help soothe and hydrate your skin.

Is QV Bath Oil suitable for babies with eczema?

Yes, QV Bath Oil is suitable for infants and is particularly recommended for conditions like eczema, dermatitis, and psoriasis due to its gentle, free-from formula.

What does it mean that the product is 'free from' certain ingredients?

It means the product does not contain soap, colorants, fragrance, lanolin, preservatives, or propylene glycol, which are common potential irritants for sensitive skin.

How much oil should I use per bath?

For an adult bath, add 10ml of bath oil. For a baby's bath, use 5ml.

What are the main active ingredients?

The main ingredients are Paraffinum Liquidum (Light Liquid Paraffin), Laureth-3, and Isopropyl Myristate, which work together to moisturize the skin.

Can I use soap with the bath oil?

It is recommended to avoid soap on affected areas when using QV Bath Oil, as soap can sometimes cause irritation and counteract the oil's soothing benefits.

Troubleshooting

Skin remains dry or irritated after use

Ensure the correct dosage is used. For baths, make sure to pat skin dry gently without rubbing. Consider increasing the frequency of use or consulting a healthcare professional for persistent conditions.

Product makes the bath/shower extremely slippery

Use the recommended dosage. Exercise extreme caution when entering and exiting the bath or shower. Ensure the bath/shower area is cleaned thoroughly after use to remove any residue.
