Zerodouble Gel
What is Zerodouble Gel?
Zerodouble Gel is a dual-action emollient used to treat very dry, itchy, or eczema-prone skin. It combines two active ingredients 10% urea and liquid paraffin which hydrate, soften, and protect the skin. The gel format spreads easily and absorbs quickly without leaving a greasy residue, making it suitable for use throughout the day. Zerodouble Gel is steroid-free and suitable for adults and children.
How does it work?
Zerodouble Gel works in two ways. The urea acts as a natural moisturiser by drawing water into the outer layers of the skin, helping to rehydrate dry, cracked areas. Meanwhile, liquid paraffin forms a protective barrier that locks in moisture and shields the skin from further irritation. This combination relieves dryness, soothes itching, and helps restore the skin barrier in conditions such as eczema, psoriasis, or dry skin caused by environmental factors.
How to use Zerodouble Gel
- Apply a thin layer to affected skin 2-3 times a day, or as needed
- Smooth gently in the direction of hair growth. Do not rub
- Use after bathing to lock in moisture
- Safe for use on face and body, but avoid contact with eyes
- Can be used alongside other emollient or medicated treatments
Who can use it?
Zerodouble Gel is suitable for adults, children, and the elderly. It is especially helpful for people with dry, flaky, or itchy skin caused by eczema, psoriasis, dermatitis, or other dry skin conditions. It is fragrance-free and well tolerated, even by sensitive skin types.
