How it works
Emlosoft Cream is a combination of four medications. Urea provides hydration to smoothen skin's texture and helps to reduce the buildup of dead skin cells. Lactic acid removes old dull cells on the skin's surface. Propylene glycol has humectant properties. It also works as a barrier to keep moisture in your skin. It helps other ingredients make their way into your skin. Liquid paraffin prevents moisture loss from the outer layer of skin.
Quick Tips
Do not use Emlosoft Cream on deep skin wounds, blistered skin, severe burns, or large skin areas. Apply to the skin only. Avoid sensitive areas such as your eyes, mouth/nose, and the vaginal/groin area. After applying Emlosoft Cream, remember to wash your hands (unless your hands are the treated area). If you are allergic to any ingredients in Emlosoft Cream, do not use the product. If you are not sure, please consult a dermatologist. Do not bathe immediately after applying Emlosoft Cream. Leave it for at least two hours after application. If applying this product to the feet, cover your feet with socks for best results.

It is advisable to wait 5-10 minutes before applying sunscreen after applying Emlosoft Cream. This allows time for the cream to be absorbed without interfering with the sun protection.
What are the things one should do to manage dry skin?
Here are some tips: 1) Maintain proper hydration by drinking plenty of water, 2) Use lukewarm water for bathing instead of hot showers or baths, 3) Apply sunscreen with an SPF of at least 15 and wear protective clothing when necessary, 4) Avoid harsh scented soaps, and 5) Moisturize your skin immediately after showering.
What are the main symptoms of dry skin?
Dryness can manifest as itching, which may worsen as the condition progresses. This leads to the ‘itch-scratch’ cycle, where you're constantly trying to relieve itchiness but end up exacerbating it.
Does drinking alcohol cause dry skin?
Yes, excessive alcohol consumption can lead to dehydration. As a consequence of this, your body has less water available to moisturize your skin, which may result in dryness and flakiness. This condition often leads to heightened sensitivity and itchiness.
Can stress cause dry skin?
Yes, stress can contribute significantly to the worsening of your skin condition and make it appear older than its actual age.
