E45 For Problem Dry Skin

Advantages: Works Really Well
Disadvantages: None

...absorbed by the skin, leaving it soft comfortable and relieved. This product can be used everyday by all members of the family including babies. It comes in a variety of sizes 125g and 500g which will be the size I will purchase the next time I run out as it will be more cost effective. The 50g product cost £2.14 unfortunately I am unsure of the price of the larger sizes. There is absolutely no smell whatsoever to this product which is great as some similar items can be quite potent. I have found no disadvantages whatsoever from using this product. It does exactly what it claims to do. I have noticed a difference in the appearance of my skin particularly on my hands as hospital alcohol hand gel can be quite abrasive with long-term use. This cream is effective in combating this condition and I would have no problems in recommending it to...

Review of E45 Problem Skin Cream

Helps against skin problems

Advantages: very good against skin problems
Disadvantages: none

...I strongly recommend this cream to anyone with skin problems, whether it be a rash, excema, then this cream is awful. It’s got loads of uses and its results are very good. It’s fast absorbing formula doesn’t leave your skin greasy and penetrates into the skin and the results are good. I suffer from rashes, they can appear suddenly and with the help of E45 I have been able to keep it under control. The product is available from chemists or you can get it from prescription via your doctor. It costs about £4 from the chemist but is worth it. But you do need to use it continuously for the affected skin to improve. This product is excellent for sensitive skin and can help against dry skin, just massage evenly into your skin twice a day. I use it after a bath and at night and it seems to do the trick. It...

Review of E45 Problem Skin Cream

magic cream for spotty skin

Advantages: inexpensive, good for all skin conditions, hypoallergenic
Disadvantages: none

...WHAT IS E45? E45 Dermatological cream is an excellent product if you have dry skin, or eczema like I have. The cream itself is a non greasy emollient cream, which is light and unperfumed, which means that it can be used all over your body including your face. It is hypoallergenic,(which is the key thing, I think) perfume-free, colour-free, non-greasy and non-sticky and easily absorbed. It should be applied to the face and body, rubbed in gently and used daily as required. It contains several active ingredients including White soft paraffin BP 14.5% w/w, Light liquid paraffin ph Eur 12.6% w/w, Hypallergenic Lanolin 1.0% w/w. It says on the back of the tube that E45 products are suitable for dry skin, chapped skin, sunburn, itchy Skin , flaky skin, and detergent hands (good excuse not to wash up, I always say!) Also...

Review of E45 Problem Skin Cream

Making dry skin a thing of the past

Advantages: Clears up dry,itchy skin
Disadvantages: none

...months ago. My skin had completely dried up a few months ago despite drinkign water everyday.So again I started to use E45.I was consistant and I used it ever morning and night.I found that it really did clear up my skin and it left it feeling smooth and clean which also gave me more confidence knowing I had my problem under control. I have to admit though I again stopped using it as I completely forget about it and my skin has again gone back to normal.So my advice is be consistant with it.If you really want your skin to be its best you have to take the time to pamper it :) *Packaging* The packaging is pretty simple.The one we have is the E45 cream pump.Its a white tub with a little pump stuck on the lid.You can still unscrew the lid if you break the seal.All the tub is white and the writing saying E45 is on a blue background (an...

Review of E45 Problem Skin Cream

The best skin cream around

Advantages: -
Disadvantages: -

...I have really sensitive hands, and after trying a lot of hand creams to little success a friend introduced me to E45. It is supposed to soothe and soften for 24 hours before re-applying. The tub costs £4.50 and here are the results. When, I applied it in the morning I was very impressed, it was really fast absorbing and all the residue disappeared so I wasn’t left with greasy hands. With the other creams I had sticky hands after using the cream but this was one was good. It is perfect for anyone with dry or sensitive skin, you only need to use a bit to get that smoothness back. The tub is quite big and it’s one of them products which will last forever. It did work as a moisturiser too, it left my skin feeling smooth and relaxed. They were no longer hard and rough but smooth. I was very impressed by the results...

Review of E45 Problem Skin Cream

simply the best for skin

Advantages: reasonably priced, easy to put on, non-greasy
Disadvantages: packaging looks a bit clinical and may put people off

...I recently tried to give up smoking using Zyban, and had an incredibly bad allergic reaction which lead to a terrible rash and it also triggered off my psorasis which had been pretty much clear up until that point. I spent two weeks trying the usual body moisturisers that I normally use, as well as some new ones that were 'super moisturising' or contained aloe vera. I've not really used E45 in the past as it looks like a prescription that you'd get from the doctor, and with the amount of creams that I've been prescribed over the years that had never worked for my skin, it put me off. I'd been looking for a small tube that I could put into my pocket at work that I could discreetly use when my skin got really bad, and the only thing in pocket-size was E45. I'd heard from friends in the past how good it was, but with the only one...

Review of E45 Problem Skin Cream

Garnier Pure - Great for problem skin!

Advantages: reasonably priced, evens skin tone
Disadvantages: not suitable for dry skin, can leave behind residue on the skin

...The Garnier brand is one that I trust and after trying to find the perfect cleanser for my combination skin, I opted for their 'pure' range. The range includes: Pure A daily moisturiser, deep clean cream wash, deep clean foam wash and 3in1 facial wipes. The promises: This product promises to unclog pores, help clear imperfections and to prevent blackheads occuring. Does it work: The first time I used this product, my skin felt smooth and refreshed and after extended use of about 4 weeks, my skin tone was noticeably even although a few blackheads still remained. I wouldn't recommend this product for people with dry skin as it did have a very drying affect on my skin and I needed to apply a lot of moisturiser after use. The packaging: The bright blue colouring of the tube is attractive and the wide base means that you can...

Review of Garnier Skin Naturals Pure Deep Pore Exfoliating Wash

E45 is good for dry sensitive skin

Advantages: Soothing and non-itchy for dry skin
Disadvantages: nothing!

...Skin is one of the important parts of our body which needs our care and attention! Healthy appearance of the skin depends on the circulation of the blood to the skin . When the blood flow is lessened , the skin slowly begins to lose it's youthful appearance. People with normal skin experience excellent health due to good blood circulation. Those with sensitive skin will have to be extra cautious in taking care of the skin. A sensitive skin is a fine -textured skin! It is very thin and supple and reacts quickly to both heat and cold. So, it gets sunburnt and windburnt very easily! If you have this type of skin, you must use sun-screen lotions or creams. When you buy a sun-screen lotion or cream, choose the one with higher SPF ..... Sun Protection Factor. You can use E45 cream , if your skin is very dry type . It...

Review of E45 Problem Skin Cream

E45 Miracle Cream?

Advantages: Skin feels smooth, helps with eczema and dermatitis
Disadvantages: Needs to be used regularly, may cause spots, sinks in slowly

...As an eczema sufferer I have used this product pretty much all my life. It is recommended by doctors and is also a good moisturing product even if you don't have problem skin. ***The Product*** The product comes in a round container with an easy lid which you screw off. It comes in 50g, 125g, 350g and 500g tubs. I have the 350g tub which has lasted fairly long. E45 claims the cream is "an effective, non-greasy emollient that's been clinically proven to treat and soothe dry, itchy, flaky, rough or chapped skin. We also recommend it for more serious dry skin conditions like eczema and dermatitis. It's quickly and easily absorbed and works by replacing lost moisture and forming a protective barrier, leaving your skin feeling soft and comfortable again". ***Is it Non-Greasy*** I'm afraid that it is greasy. For best results...

Review of E45 Problem Skin Cream

Say goodbye to housemaid hands!

Advantages: Helps dry skin
Disadvantages: None

...This is one of those creams which has always been part of my bathroom shelf, usually coming out to help us all in those "nasty skin" moments. At the moment, it is under attack from me-dry hands- all that nasty cleaning without rubber gloves! It is a non greasy, unperfumed emollient (softening or soothing) cream which has been clinically proven to soothe lots of dry skin conditions, including sunburn, detergent hands (I got them), flaking, chapped skin and it is recommended for more serious conditions such as eczema, dermatitis, ichthyosis and some cases of psoriasis. Get the red cross at the door...we have lots of those at the moment. THE PACKAGING I have a 125g pot and a 50g tube at the moment. The tub sits on the bathroom shelf. It is a round white tub with a screw on and off lid, with the E45 logo and instructions...
