E45 Itch Relief Cream
What is E45 Itch Relief Cream?
E45 Itch Relief Cream is a specially formulated emollient that helps to soothe and relieve itching caused by dry skin, eczema, dermatitis, or other irritant skin conditions. Its dual-action formula not only moisturises but also helps calm irritated skin, making it ideal for flare-ups and sensitive areas. It's suitable for everyday use and safe for both adults and children over 1 year of age.
How does it work?
This cream contains lauromacrogols, which have local anaesthetic properties that help to relieve itching, and urea, which hydrates dry and rough skin by drawing in moisture. The combination targets both the dryness and the discomfort, helping to restore comfort to inflamed skin while promoting healing.
How to use E45 Itch Relief Cream
- Apply to the affected area 2-3 times a day or as needed
- Use regularly during flare-ups or after bathing to lock in moisture
- Massage gently into the skin until fully absorbed
- For external use only — avoid contact with eyes and broken skin
