Unlike conventional soaps, which can remove the skin's natural oils, Ovelle Silcocks Base helps cleanse while preserving moisture. Regular application helps support the skin barrier, reducing dryness, itching and discomfort associated with dry skin conditions. Apply generously several times daily, particularly after bathing and hand washing, when moisture loss is greatest. When using as a soap substitute, gently massage onto wet skin before rinsing with warm water. Avoid very hot water, as this can worsen skin dryness. If your skin becomes increasingly red, swollen, painful or begins to weep, seek advice from your pharmacist or GP as this may indicate infection requiring medical treatment. Continue to use prescribed eczema treatments alongside your emollient if advised by your healthcare professional.
