FAQ

  • How will Dermol 500 lotion help to soothe my dry skin?

    Dermol 500 lotion works to relieve dry skin conditions in two ways. Firstly, it works as an emollient, which forms a barrier over the skin that stops moisture from escaping. This softens and hydrates your skin, preventing and relieving dryness and symptoms like itching. Dermol 500 lotion 500ml also works as an antimicrobial, which means that it kills bacteria on the skin that can make dry skin conditions worse, also helping to prevent infection.

  • Can I use Dermol 500 lotion 500ml if I have sensitive skin?

    You can use this product if you have sensitive skin, but you should always test a new skincare product, such as Dermol 500 lotion 500ml, on a small patch of skin before the first application.
