•
Dermol 200 Shower Emollient is an antimicrobial and emollient

- combat bacteria present on your skin that can make eczema worse
- prevent infection caused by scratching itchy skin.

to:
- soften, moisturise and protect your skin by trapping moisture in the

the normal protective function of the skin

washing and bathing
and by the soaps, foaming additives and fragrances used in ordinary
skin cleansing
products.

condition.
