    Triple Action Formula

    • Light liquid paraffin replaces lost natural skin oils
    • White Soft Paraffin forms a protective barrier on the skin’s surface
    • Glycerin supports healthy moisture levels

    The cream is ideal for people with localised problematic skin, including dry skin and eczema. The formula includes properties that replenish lost oils in the skin and creates a barrier on the skin that protects the surface.

    Cetraben emollient cream has protective and moisturising features for the symptomatic relief of dry skin, red skin, inflamed skin or chapped skin, particularly when these conditions are related to eczema.

    Cetraben is suitable for all ages to relieve itchy skin and the eagerness to scratch it. Cetraben’s airless pump dispenser makes it very convenient and easy to apply accurately during the day.

    What Causes Dry Skin?

    Dry skin isn’t usually serious. In most cases it’s caused by factors like hot or cold weather, low moisture in the air, and soaking in hot water.

    You can do a lot on your own to improve your skin, including using moisturizers and avoiding harsh, drying soaps. But sometimes dry skin happens often or is severe. In these cases, you may need help from a doctor who specializes in skin (dermatologist)

    Causes

    Dry skin (xerosis) often has an environmental cause. Certain diseases also can significantly affect your skin. Potential causes of dry skin include:

    • Weather. Skin tends to be driest in winter, when temperatures and humidity levels plummet. But the season may not matter as much if you live in desert regions.
    • Heat. Central heating, wood-burning stoves, space heaters and fireplaces all reduce humidity and dry your skin.
    • Hot baths and showers. Taking long, hot showers or baths can dry your skin. So can frequent swimming, particularly in heavily chlorinated pools.
    • Harsh soaps and detergents. Many popular soaps, detergents and shampoos strip moisture from your skin as they are formulated to remove oil.
    • Other skin conditions. People with skin conditions such as atopic dermatitis (eczema) or psoriasis are prone to dry skin.

    Risk factors

    Anyone can develop dry skin. But you may be more likely to develop the condition if you:

    • Are in your 40s or older. The risk increases with age — more than 50 percent of older adults have dry skin.
    • Live in dry, cold or low-humidity climates.
    • Have a job that requires you to immerse your skin in water, such as nursing and hairstyling.
    • Swim frequently in chlorinated pools.

    Complications

    Dry skin is usually harmless. But when it’s not cared for, dry skin may lead to:

    • Atopic dermatitis (eczema). If you’re prone to develop this condition, excessive dryness can lead to activation of the disease, causing redness, cracking and inflammation.
    • Infections. Dry skin may crack, allowing bacteria to enter, causing infections.

    These complications are most likely to occur when your skin’s normal protective mechanisms are severely compromised. For example, severely dry skin can cause deep cracks or fissures, which can open and bleed, providing an avenue for invading bacteria

    Symptoms

    Dry skin is often temporary — you get it only in winter, for example — but it may be a lifelong condition. Signs and symptoms of dry skin depend on your age, your health, where you live, time spent outdoors and the cause of the problem. Dry skin is likely to cause one or more of the following:

    • A feeling of skin tightness, especially after showering, bathing or swimming
    • Skin that feels and looks rough
    • Itching (pruritus)
    • Slight to severe flaking, scaling or peeling
    • Fine lines or cracks
    • Gray, ashy skin
    • Redness
    • Deep cracks that may bleed

    What is Eczema?

    Atopic eczema (atopic dermatitis) is the most common form of eczema, a condition that causes the skin to become itchy, dry and cracked.

    Atopic eczema is more common in children, often developing before their first birthday. But it may also develop for the first time in adults.

    It’s usually a long-term (chronic) condition, although it can improve significantly, or even clear completely, in some children as they get older.

    Atopic eczema causes the skin to become itchy, dry, cracked and sore.

    Some people only have small patches of dry skin, but others may experience widespread inflamed skin all over the body.

    Inflamed skin can become red on lighter skin, and darker brown, purple or grey on darker skin. This can also be more difficult to see on darker skin.

    Although atopic eczema can affect any part of the body, it most often affects the hands, insides of the elbows, backs of the knees and the face and scalp in children.

    People with atopic eczema usually have periods when symptoms are less noticeable, as well as periods when symptoms become more severe (flare-ups).

    Eczema is the name for a group of skin conditions that cause dry, irritated skin.

    Other types of eczema include:

    • discoid eczema – a type of eczema that occurs in circular or oval patches on the skin
    • contact dermatitis – a type of eczema that occurs when the body comes into contact with a particular substance
    • varicose eczema – a type of eczema that most often affects the lower legs and is caused by problems with the flow of blood through the leg veins
    • seborrhoeic eczema – a type of eczema where red, scaly patches develop on the sides of the nose, eyebrows, ears and scalp
    • dyshidrotic eczema (pompholyx) – a type of eczema that causes tiny blisters to erupt across the palms of the hands
