Product Description

Double base Flare Relief Emollient 500g &100g | Helps Treat Eczema, Dermatitis And Psoriasis

Doublebase Flare Relief is a dual-action, steroid-free emollient specifically formulated to treat and soothe inflamed, dry, itchy, and red skin conditions, including eczema, dermatitis, and psoriasis. Manufactured as doublebase diomed flare relief emollient 500g, this advanced flare cream combines high-performance skin hydration with anti-inflammatory therapeutic action to reduce redness, itching, and skin irritation during acute flare-ups.

Featuring active Nicotinamide (2.0% w/w) alongside moisturizing Liquid Paraffin and Isopropyl Myristate, double base flare relief works directly within the skin layers to repair broken barrier function and lock in essential moisture. Highly praised across doublebase flare relief reviews, this non-greasy, fast-absorbing emollient provides an effective alternative or secondary support alongside traditional topical treatments.

Key Features:

  • Steroid-Free Anti-Inflammatory Action: Contains 2% w/w Nicotinamide to calm redness, inflammation, and itching without the risks associated with topical steroids.
  • Dual-Action Barrier Repair: Locks in essential skin hydration while restoring compromised skin lipid barriers.
  • Relieves Eczema, Dermatitis & Psoriasis: Clinically proven care for managing active dry skin flare-ups and chronic irritation.
  • Fragrance-Free & SLS-Free: Gentle, non-irritating formula suitable for sensitive skin across adults, children, and infants over 1 year.
  • 500g Value Pump Dispenser: Hygienic pump bottle designed for daily family application and complete body coverage.

Ingredients:

  • Active Ingredients (% w/w): Nicotinamide 2.0% w/w, Liquid Paraffin 15.0 w/w, Isopropyl Myristate 15.0 w/w}.
  • Inactive Excipients: Carbomer, Glycerol, Sorbitan Laurate, Triethanolamine, Phenoxyethanol, Purified Water.
  • Formulation Profile: Free from artificial fragrances, artificial colorings, parabens, sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS), and topical corticosteroids.

How to Use:

  • Dispense Emollient: Press the pump dispenser to release a generous amount of Doublebase Flare Relief Emollient.
  • Smooth Lightly Along Hair Growth: Apply gently to the affected red, dry, or inflamed skin areas, smoothing in the direction of hair growth. Avoid rubbing vigorously to prevent skin irritation.
  • Allow Protective Barrier to Form: Allow the emollient to absorb naturally into the skin surface, leaving a protective hydration layer.
  • Apply Regularly Throughout the Day: Apply as often as needed to manage flare-ups and maintain hydration, particularly after washing or bathing.

Daily Management & Precautions:

  • Daily Management: Safe for continuous daily use across active flare-ups or quiet maintenance phases.
  • Precautions: For external use only. Avoid direct contact with eyes. Paraffin-soaked fabric burns more easily; keep clothing and bedding away from open flames.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Doublebase Flare Relief a steroid cream, and is it good for eczema?

No, Doublebase Flare Relief is 100% steroid-free. It uses 2% w/w Nicotinamide (a vitamin B3 derivative) to deliver anti-inflammatory benefits that soothe active eczema, psoriasis, and dermatitis flare-ups without skin thinning or steroid withdrawal concerns.

What is Doublebase cream used for, and can you use Doublebase Flare Relief on your face?

Doublebase creams and emollients are used to treat dry, itchy, inflamed skin conditions. Yes, Doublebase Flare Relief can be used on the face to soothe facial eczema, flaking, or redness. Avoid applying too close to the eyes, nostrils, or mouth.

Can I get Doublebase Flare Relief on prescription in the UK?

Yes, Doublebase Flare Relief Emollient is available on NHS prescription, but it can also be purchased over the counter at registered UK pharmacies and online suppliers.

Is Doublebase better than E45 Cream for active flare-ups?

While traditional E45 Cream provides basic hydration, Doublebase Flare Relief contains active Nicotinamide 2% w/w.
