What is Aproderm Colloidal Oat Cream?

Aproderm Colloidal Oat Cream is a daily moisturiser designed for dry, sensitive, or eczema-prone skin. It combines the soothing benefits of colloidal oatmeal with a hydrating emollient base to help calm irritation, reduce itching, and restore the skin's natural barrier. The formula is gentle, steroid-free, and suitable for all ages, including babies and children.

How does it work?

Colloidal oatmeal is a finely ground oat powder that forms a protective barrier over the skin. It contains anti-inflammatory and antioxidant compounds that help reduce redness, itching, and irritation. The cream also includes hydrating agents that lock in moisture and support skin healing, making it especially helpful for eczema flare-ups or dry patches.

How to use Aproderm Colloidal Oat Cream

  • Apply to affected areas 2-3 times daily or as often as needed
  • Use regularly to maintain hydration and reduce flare-ups
  • Can be used on the face and body
  • Gently massage in the direction of hair growth

Who can use it?

This cream is suitable for:

  • Babies from birth
  • Children and adults with sensitive, dry, or eczema-prone skin
  • Those looking for a plant-based soothing moisturiser

Side effects

Aproderm Colloidal Oat Cream is generally very well tolerated. On rare occasions, users may experience:

  • Redness or mild irritation after application
  • Allergic reaction (rare, usually in those with oat sensitivity)

Discontinue use if irritation occurs and seek advice from a healthcare professional.
