At The Family Chemist, we understand how important daily comfort is for eczema-prone skin. That’s why we offer E45, available as a 500g cream, 500g lotion, and 200g shower cream. This dermatologically trusted emollient helps provide soothing, effective care to keep your skin calm, nourished, and protected.
What is E45?
E45 Cream, Lotion, and Shower Cream are non-greasy, paraffin‑based emollients designed to soothe and hydrate dry, itchy, and eczema‑prone skin. With a clinically proven formula containing lanolin, white soft paraffin, and light liquid paraffin, they lock in moisture with a protective film and relieves discomfort from eczema, dermatitis, sunburn, and dry skin. Fragrance‑free and dermatologically tested, it’s suitable for babies from 1 month old through adulthood.
E45 Cream is a rich, hydrating cream ideal for everyday use on dry skin, eczema, and dermatitis, providing long-lasting relief.
E45 Lotion is a lighter, more fluid formula that absorbs quickly and is perfect for daily moisturization, especially for those who prefer a non-greasy feel.
E45 Shower Cream is a gentle cleansing cream designed to cleanse and hydrate at the same time, leaving the skin feeling soft and moisturized without stripping natural oils.
All E45 formulations are suitable for all ages including infants over the age of 1 month, and safe during pregnancy and breastfeeding (avoid application directly on the breast).
