FAQs

Can Epaderm Cream be used on all parts of the body?

Yes, Epaderm Cream is safe for use on all parts of the body, including the face, hands, and feet, wherever dry skin conditions are present.

Is Epaderm Cream suitable for infants and young children?

Yes, Epaderm Cream is specifically formulated to be gentle and free from common irritants, making it suitable for sensitive and delicate skin, including that of infants and young children.

How often should I apply Epaderm Cream as an emollient?

Apply Epaderm Cream as often as needed to keep the skin hydrated, especially after washing. For best results, use at least 2-3 times a day, or as directed by your healthcare professional.

Can I use Epaderm Cream if I have open wounds or broken skin?

While Epaderm Cream is gentle, it's generally recommended to avoid applying emollients directly to open wounds or severely broken skin to prevent potential irritation or infection. Consult your doctor or pharmacist if you have concerns.

What's the difference between Epaderm Cream and other emollients?

Epaderm Cream is unique due to its 2-in-1 formula, acting as both a leave-on emollient and a skin cleanser. Its formulation is free from common irritants like fragrances, colorings, and SLS, making it highly suitable for very sensitive skin and simplifying skincare routines.

Will Epaderm Cream stain my clothes?

As an emollient, Epaderm Cream can leave an oily residue that may transfer to clothing or bedding. To minimize this, allow the cream to absorb into your skin for a few minutes before dressing. Be aware that emollients can increase the flammability of fabrics, so exercise caution around naked flames.

Troubleshooting

Skin still feels dry or itchy after application

Ensure you are applying a generous enough amount of cream and applying it frequently throughout the day, especially after bathing. Consistency is key for managing dry skin conditions. Consider applying to damp skin after washing to lock in moisture effectively.

Cream isn't absorbing well or feels too thick

While emollients are designed to leave a protective layer, if it feels too thick, try applying a slightly thinner layer and gently massage it in the direction of hair growth until absorbed. Avoid rubbing vigorously, which can irritate sensitive skin.

Skin irritation occurs after using Epaderm Cream

Although Epaderm is formulated for sensitive skin and is irritant-free, individual sensitivities can occur. Discontinue use immediately if irritation, redness, or a rash develops. Consult a healthcare professional if symptoms persist.

Difficulty scooping cream from the large tub

Use a clean, dedicated spatula or spoon to dispense the cream, particularly if you have long fingernails or wish to avoid direct hand contact with the bulk of the product. This also helps maintain hygiene within the tub.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Dual-action formula simplifies daily skincare routines
  • Suitable for highly sensitive skin, including infants, due to irritant-free formulation
  • Effectively reduces symptoms of dry skin like itching and irritation
  • Protects and strengthens the skin's natural barrier
  • Large 500g tub offers good value for regular use

Cons

  • May feel greasy to some users due to its emollient nature
  • Bulk packaging (500g x3) might be less convenient for travel for some users
  • Requires proper storage to maintain efficacy, like all creams

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Epaderm Cream is ready to use directly from the tub. No prior preparation or mixing is needed. Ensure hands are clean before scooping out the cream to maintain hygiene, especially when using on sensitive or broken skin.

Compatibility: This cream is highly compatible with sensitive and delicate skin types, including infants, due to its irritant-free formulation (no fragrances, colorings, or SLS). It can generally be used alongside other prescribed topical treatments for skin conditions; however, always consult a healthcare professional or pharmacist if you have concerns about combining treatments.

Care: Store Epaderm Cream at room temperature (below 25°C/77°F), away from direct sunlight and heat. Ensure the lid is securely replaced after each use to maintain product integrity and prevent contamination. Do not use if the seal is broken upon purchase, or if the product appears discolored or has an unusual odor. This product is for external use only. Keep out of reach of children.
