Hydromol Bath And Shower Emollient
What is Hydromol Bath & Shower Emollient?
Hydromol Bath and Shower Emollient is a soap-free liquid designed to cleanse and hydrate dry or sensitive skin during bathing or showering. It replaces traditional soaps and shower gels that can irritate the skin, especially for people with eczema, dermatitis, or psoriasis. It helps protect the skin barrier and maintain long-lasting hydration, making it suitable for daily use by all ages.
How does it work?
The emollient contains light liquid paraffin, which forms a thin layer over the skin to prevent water loss and keep the skin soft. It gently cleanses without stripping away natural oils, helping to reduce dryness and irritation caused by soap-based products.
How to use Hydromol Bath & Shower Emollient
- In the bath: Add 1-2 capfuls to warm running water and soak for 10-15 minutes
- In the shower: Apply directly to wet skin as a wash, then rinse off and pat dry
- Use daily to support skin hydration and protect against irritation
- Take care: It may make the bath or shower slippery
Who can use it?
Hydromol Bath and Shower Emollient is suitable for babies, children, and adults. It's ideal for people who:
- Have dry, itchy, or flaky skin
- Are managing eczema, psoriasis, or dermatitis

Side effects
Most people can use Hydromol Bath & Shower without any problems. Rarely, it may cause:
