Diprobase

Description

Diprobase is a soothing emollient cream that helps hydrate and protect dry skin conditions such as eczema and dermatitis. The active ingredient in Diprobase is Liquid Paraffin, which forms a protective barrier over the skin, locking in moisture and preventing irritants from causing further damage. This cream is suitable for anyone looking to relieve dry, itchy skin and maintain healthy skin hydration.
