Cetraben Moisturising Cream 475ml is a moisturising, protective cream for dry, itchy or eczema-prone skin. It helps lock in moisture and protect the skin against irritants and water loss, and its higher paraffin content makes it well suited to skin that needs longer-lasting hydration than a lighter lotion provides.

Key Features

• High paraffin content: Contains white soft paraffin (13.2% w/w) and light liquid paraffin (10.5% w/w) to help soften the skin and retain moisture for longer than a lighter formulation.
• SLS-free formulation: Made without sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS), reducing the potential for irritation on sensitive, eczema-prone skin.
• Suited to all ages and stages of dry skin: Approved for use by adults, the elderly and children over 1 year.
• Can be used on the face and body: Formulated for use across the whole body, including the face.

Is there a fire risk with Cetraben Moisturising Cream?

Cetraben Moisturising Cream contains paraffin, which can soak into fabric such as clothing, dressings and bedding. This residue can be easily ignited by a naked flame, so keep away from fire, cigarettes and other naked flames while using it and afterwards.

What's the difference between Cetraben Moisturising Cream and Cetraben Lotion?

Cetraben Moisturising Cream has a higher paraffin content designed to soften the skin and retain moisture for longer, while Cetraben Lotion is a lighter, quicker-absorbing formulation intended for frequent use and areas such as the face and hairy skin. Both are part of the Cetraben range of emollients for dry skin conditions.
