How can Doublebase Emollient Shower Gel help me break the itch scratch cycle?
The itch-scratch cycle is a common problem for people with dry skin conditions such as eczema and dermatitis. These conditions can cause intense itching, which can be relieved temporarily by scratching. However, scratching also damages the skin, which can lead to further itching and an increased urge to scratch. This creates a cycle of itching and scratching that can be difficult to break.
One way to break this cycle is to reduce the itching by using emollients or moisturisers, such as Doublebase Emollient Shower Gel. Emollients are substances that help to moisturize and soften the skin, forming a barrier on the surface that locks in moisture. It is important to use emollients regularly, as directed, to keep the skin moisturized and reduce itching. Additionally, it is a good idea to avoid triggers that may worsen the itching, such as hot showers or baths, harsh soaps, and certain fabrics.
what are the active ingredients in Doublebase Emollient Shower Gel and how do they work?
The active ingredients in the text are isopropyl myristate (15% w/w) and liquid paraffin (15% w/w). Isopropyl myristate is an ester of isopropyl alcohol and myristic acid, and it is often used as a lubricant and emollient. It helps to moisturize and soften the skin by forming a barrier on the surface that locks in moisture. Liquid paraffin is a light mineral oil that is also commonly used as an emollient. It can be used to moisturize and protect the skin from dryness and irritation.
How often should I use Doublebase Emollient Shower Gel?
Doublebase mollient Shower Gel can be used daily as part of a skincare routine for eczema and dermatitis. It's important to use it regularly to keep the skin moisturized and reduce itching.
Is Doublebase Emollient Shower Gel suitable for sensitive skin?
Doublebase Emollient Shower Gel is formulated for sensitive skin, and it is clinically proven to be safe and effective for people with eczema and dermatitis. However, if you have any concerns, it is best to consult a dermatologist.
Can Doublebase Emollient Shower Gel be used by Children?
Doublebase Emollient Shower Gel is suitable for use by children, but it is always best to consult with a pediatrician before using any new product on a child.

Usage and Instructions
For maximum benefit, use Doublebase Emollient Shower Gel every time you shower.
Doublebase Emollient Shower Gel can be used either before, during or after showering - whichever suit you best.
Before showering:
Apply the gel to the dry areas of the skin, using a few gentle strokes.
During showering:
Apply the gel using a gentle washing action.
You may prefer to use your normal soap or shower gel as well as Doublebase Emollient Shower Gel when showering. If you do, use Doublebase Emollient
Shower Gel afterwards to condition your skin. As a general rule, however, the use of normal soaps and shower gels (even those labelled "moisturising") is best avoided, or at least kept to a minimum.
Rinse off any excess (you should still be able to feel the product coating the skin).
After showering:
Pat the skin dry with a soft towel (avoid rubbing as this can make dry skin conditions worse).
Apply the gel to areas of dry skin, using a few gentle strokes to smooth across the skin in the same direction as hair growth.
Allow any excess to soak in.
Warnings
Do not use Doublebase Emollient Shower Gel if you are allergic (hypersensitive) to isopropyl myristate, liquid paraffin or any of the other ingredients.
