of babies completing the clinical study did not develop new flare-ups of extreme skin dryness over three months. Lotions are good for hairy or damaged areas of skin (such as weeping eczema – where pus is seeping out of damaged areas of skin). This is because lotions are thin and spread easily, but they're not very moisturising. Sprays They can be used to replace lost moisture whenever your skin feels dry or tight. They're very safe and you cannot overuse them. If you're using a steroid cream or another treatment for your skin condition, wait 20 to 30 minutes between using an emollient and using the other treatment. Ask a doctor which one to use first.

It's a good idea to protect babies' hands and cheeks with an emollient before mealtimes to stop them getting sore from food and drink. Emollients are moisturising treatments applied directly to the skin to soothe and hydrate it. They cover the skin with a protective film to trap in moisture. Use a clean spoon or spatula to remove emollients from a pot or tub. This reduces the risk of infections from contaminated pots. Risk of slipping It's especially important to regularly apply an emollient to your hands and face, as they're exposed to the elements more than any other part of your body. Certain activities, such as gardening, can irritate the skin. It may help to apply an emollient before doing these.

Be careful not to slip when using emollients in a bath or shower, or on a tiled floor. Protect the floor with a non-slip mat, towel or sheet. Wear protective gloves, wash your bath or shower afterwards with hot water and washing-up liquid, then dry with a kitchen towel. Skin irritation from aqueous cream Emollients can be applied as often as you like to keep the skin well moisturised and in good condition. Ideally, this should be done at least 3 or 4 times a day. You may need to experiment with different emollients or try a combination. For example, you may decide to use a cream during the day and an ointment at night. How to wash with emollientsEmollients are often used to help manage dry, itchy or scaly skin conditions such as eczema, psoriasis and ichthyosis.

This avoids diluting the effect of the treatment and spreading it to areas of skin that do not need it. When to apply emollients If your skin stings after using an emollient wash product and does not settle after rinsing, ask a pharmacist to recommend a different product. Using emollients with other skin treatments Everyday soaps, shampoos and shower gels usually dry out the skin and can make skin conditions like eczema worse. Mix a small amount (around teaspoonful) of leave-on emollient or soap substitute in the palm of your hand with a little warm water and spread it over damp or dry skin. They help prevent patches of inflammation and flare-ups of these conditions. Types of emollients LotionsEmollient soap substitutes that are used instead of normal soap in the bath or shower are not usually available on the NHS. How to get emollients Emollients are best applied after washing your hands, taking a bath or showering because this is when the skin most needs moisture.
