How to get emollients

Your doctor or pharmacist will talk to you about which type of emollient will work best for your skin condition. Emollients are often used to help manage dry, itchy or scaly skin conditions such as eczema, psoriasis and ichthyosis.

Emollients can be applied as often as you like to keep the skin well moisturised and in good condition. Ideally, this should be done at least 3 or 4 times a day. Certain activities, such as gardening, can irritate the skin. It may help to apply an emollient before doing these. If you experience any of these symptoms, talk to a GP, nurse or pharmacist.
