Diprobase Cream (500g)

Diprobase Cream is a gentle, protective emollient developed to relieve dry, irritated, or eczema-prone skin. It works by creating a barrier over the skin with soft white paraffin and liquid paraffin, helping to lock in moisture and prevent further irritation. Ideal for treating conditions such as eczema and dermatitis, Diprobase helps soothe and protect the skin while restoring its natural balance.
