E45 cream is medicine that treats and soothes dry, itchy, chapped, sun burnt and rough skin.  It is clinically tested and recommended for serious dry skin conditions such as dermatitis, eczema, itchyosis and certain types of psoriasis. This also cream works like moisturizers as it prevents loss moisture from the skin.

Dry skin is caused by lack of moisture on the outer layer of the skin which causes roughness, itchiness and even cracking. The E45 cream contains white soft paraffin, liquid paraffin and anhydrous lanolin which create a layer of oil on the skin therefore preventing loss of moisture which is important for healthy skin.

Skin dryness increases with age and also worsens as a result of washing the skin with hot soapy water which cleans out the layer of oil that is meant to prevent moisture loss from our skin. E45 cream is non-greasy and is easily absorbed in to the skin leaving it smooth, soft, relieved and very comfortable. It is suitable for people of all ages including very young children and the elderly people.

Naturally, our skin is supposed to retain water and slow down the rate of evaporation to ensure the skin remains healthy and supple. Due to different reasons, different people’s skin types may not do so effectively. E45 cream comes in handy in such cases and it can be purchased from medicine stores. People who use E45 cream are advised to apply it on the affected areas especially after washing the skin.

Although there are no known harmful effects if the cream is used during pregnancy and lactation, people are advised to seek medical advice before using E45 cream. This is because it contains cetostearyl alcohol and potassium sorbate, which are known to cause skin irritation. Although it is not common, other components may cause skin irritation.

E45 cream is highly effective in treating dry skin conditions and is only meant for external use. Since people react differently to medicine, it is important to get a doctor’s advice before purchasing this cream. The E45 cream is available for purchase online in 100gms, 125gms and 500gms tabs and retails between $3 and $10.

E45 Cream is by far one of the best creams available which successfully treats most skin conditions. Doctors regularly recommend the cream if you complain of itchy, dry, peeling skin. It can even help to ease sunburn, and it protects the skin after it has been exposed to certain detergents.

If you suffer from Eczema you will know how irritating the condition can be, and the same applies with Dermatitis, Ichthyosis and certain cases of Psoriasis. The constant itching, the dry skin and the irritation can really be a nightmare, but E45 successfully eases all of the mentioned symptoms. It is not overly expensive and it does last quite a long time, especially if you buy the 500g tub! If you cannot find E45 in your local supermarket or chemist, you can get it on prescription from your doctor.

Overall E45 really is a magical cream for most skin conditions and results occur quite quickly too!

E45 cream is really great! On my cheeks there was dry skin and I put a bit of E45 cream on and when I came home from school that same day, it was very soft. I am telling you E45 cream is the best dry skin remover. It even makes removes some of the Eczema but not all I don't think.

It moisturizes and it locks in moisture. Many creams in Canada have paraffin in them which is supposed to lock in moisture, but E45 does it better for some reason.

In Canada I use Glaxal Base by WellSkin. Loblaws/ real Canadian Superstore in Western Canada have a good copy called Exact Base Cream.

My skin is unusually dry in winters and I had tried many creams till I ran into E45 at Heathrow Airport. It was like my skin was waiting to find E45. In Australia, there is no local stockist..I use fishpond to order E45 online.

I love it because its very light and provides quick relief to my dry skins around nose and cheeks.
