What are the active ingredients in Doublebase Gel and how do they work?
The active ingredients in Doublebase Gel are isopropyl myristate and liquid paraffin. These ingredients are known as emollients and help to soften, moisturise and protect the skin by trapping moisture in the skin and restoring the normal protective function of the skin. They also prevent the skin-drying and irritant effects that can be caused by washing and bathing and by the soaps, foaming additives and fragrances used in ordinary cleansing products.
What is an emollient soap substitute?
An emollient soap substitute is a type of cleanser that is designed to be gentler on the skin and provide extra moisture. Doublebase Gel is an excellent alternative to regular soap to reduce skin irritation associated with regular body wash or soap.
How can using an emollient soap substitute help improve the skin?
Using an emollient soap substitute instead of normal soap for handwashing and bathing can help improve the skin by preventing it from becoming dry and irritated. It can also help soothe existing skin conditions like eczema, psoriasis, and dermatitis by keeping the skin moisturized and reducing inflammation.
