About this deal
Creams are ideal for mild to moderate dry skin conditions, they’re easy to use and are well absorbed. They trap moisture in the skin, but take time to be absorbed by the skin, meaning they may stay on the skin longer than creams.

Uses: Adults, the elderly and children*: Apply the gel to the affected area on a regular basis and as often as required.
Gels also contain less oil than creams so, using an emollient gel instead of soap can help to improve dry skin. Bath additives disperse easily in water and provide a soothing treatment for dry skin during bathing. There are lots of emollients to choose from and you might need more than one type to suit different times of the day and different areas of your body. Gel formulas vary from creams and they tend to be better at moisturising the skin, although it can take longer for them to absorb into the skin. Double the moisturising action – a non-greasy gel to soften, smooth and rehydrate dry skin conditions.
Choosing the right emollient - Zeroderma
They can be particularly useful for treating younger people with dry skin, like babies and children, where more regular application of emollients can be difficult.
