How does Adex gel help treat dry skin conditions?

Adex Gel does not contain steroids. Aside from the emollient, which forms the protective barrier on the skin in order to lock in moisture, Adex Gel contains nicotinamide which has natural anti-inflammatory properties, making it suitable for calming irritated skin. Nicotinamide is however not a steroid, Adex gel is thus steroid-free.
