E45 (UK) Dermatological Moisturising Body Lotion For Dry & Sensitive Skin 500ml
Why you'll love it
E45 Dermatological Moisturising Lotion (UK) is a light, perfume-free everyday moisturiser for dry and sensitive skin, in a large 500ml pump bottle. This is the UK version of the well-known British skincare brand. The lotion spreads easily, absorbs quickly and can be used on the body, face and hands by the whole family. It contains Medilan, a purified, hypoallergenic form of lanolin, to soften dry skin and help it hold moisture. It is a simple, practical choice for families in Bangladesh dealing with dry skin in winter, in air-conditioned rooms or after frequent hand washing.
Key Benefits
- Long-lasting moisture: E45 says the lotion moisturises for up to 24 hours.
- Light and fast-absorbing: A thin lotion texture that spreads easily over large areas without feeling heavy.
- Gentle on sensitive skin: Perfume-free, dermatologically tested and allergy-screened.
- Softens rough, flaky skin: Helps reduce the dry, rough patches that come with very dry skin.
- Head-to-toe use: Suitable for body, face and hands in one bottle.
- Family size: The 500ml pump bottle is easy to use and lasts a long time.
Ingredients & How It Works
- Medilan (Hypoallergenic Anhydrous Lanolin): A purified lanolin that softens skin and helps it hold on to water.
- White Soft Paraffin (Petrolatum): Forms a light protective layer that reduces moisture loss.
- Light Liquid Paraffin (Paraffinum Liquidum): An emollient that smooths and softens dry skin.
- Isopropyl Palmitate & Glyceryl Stearate: Emollients that help the lotion spread easily and leave skin feeling smooth.
How it works: Dry skin loses water easily. The emollients in E45 fill in the gaps between dry, flaky skin cells so the surface feels smoother. The light protective layer from paraffin and lanolin then helps slow down water loss, so skin stays soft and comfortable for longer.
Suitable For
- Dry, very dry and sensitive skin.
- Use on the body, face and hands.
- Suitable for the whole family, including children. E45 says it can be used on babies too.
- Helpful for rough elbows, knees and legs, and for hands that get dry from frequent washing.
- Not suitable if you are allergic to lanolin or to any listed ingredient.
How to Use
- Apply to clean skin: The best time is right after a bath, while skin is still slightly damp.
- Massage in: Pump a small amount and smooth it gently over dry areas of the body, face or hands until absorbed.
- Reapply as needed: Use as often as your skin needs, for example after washing your hands.
Important Suggestions
- Patch test first if you have very sensitive skin or a known lanolin allergy.
- Use sunscreen on your face and exposed skin in the day. This lotion has no SPF, and the Bangladesh sun is strong all year.
- In hot, humid weather, use a thin layer so skin does not feel sticky. In winter, use it more often.
- Paraffin-based products can catch fire if they soak into clothing, bedding or dressings. Keep away from naked flames and smoking, and wash fabrics often.
- Store in a cool place away from direct sunlight and heat. Keep the pump clean.
- Avoid the eyes. Stop using it if irritation happens. For broken, infected or very inflamed skin, talk to a doctor.
