Oilatum Cream (500ml)

Oilatum Cream is a non-greasy emollient specially formulated to treat and soothe eczema, dermatitis, and other dry skin conditions. It works by forming a protective barrier over the skin to lock in moisture, soften rough patches, and relieve irritation.

This cream is fragrance-free and lanolin-free, making it a gentle option for all skin types, including babies and those prone to allergies or sensitivity. Its smooth, easily absorbed texture makes it ideal for frequent application throughout the day, particularly after washing or bathing when skin is most vulnerable to drying out.
