Not sure which format to pick?

FAQs
What is Diprobase used for?
Diprobase is an emollient skincare range used to moisturise and soften dry or sensitive skin. Many people include emollients in a regular routine to help reduce dryness and support the skin barrier.
What’s the difference between Diprobase cream and Diprobase lotion?
The cream is typically richer and may suit smaller, very dry areas that need a more substantial feel. The lotion is lighter, spreads easily, and can be more convenient for larger areas and frequent daytime application.
Which Diprobase size should I choose?
The 300ml lotion is a practical option for regular use at home, while the 50ml lotion is ideal for travel or keeping in a bag. The 50g cream is compact and useful for targeted dry patches.
How often can I apply Diprobase emollients?
Use as directed on the product packaging. Emollients are often applied regularly throughout the day and after washing, but the right frequency depends on your skin and the product format.
Can I use Diprobase for eczema or dermatitis?
Diprobase is commonly used as a moisturising step in routines for eczema-prone or dermatitis-prone skin, but it is not a substitute for medical assessment. If symptoms are worsening, painful, weeping, or not improving, seek advice from a pharmacist or GP.
Can Diprobase be used on the face?
Some people use emollients on facial dryness, but facial skin can be more reactive. Patch test a small area first, avoid the eye area, and stop using it if irritation occurs.
When should I speak to a pharmacist or GP about dry skin?
Ask for advice if you have broken skin, signs of infection (increasing redness, heat, swelling, oozing), severe itch affecting sleep, symptoms in babies or young children, or if you’re unsure what’s suitable alongside other skin treatments.
Safety note: Always read and follow the label. If you have known allergies, are pregnant or breastfeeding, or you’re using prescribed skin medicines, a pharmacist can help you choose the most appropriate emollient. For persistent, severe, or infected skin symptoms, contact your GP or NHS 111 for guidance.
