Fifty:50 Ointment
Fifty:50 Ointment is a highly effective, fragrance-free emollient designed to soothe, protect and hydrate dry, irritated and sensitive skin. It offers a unique blend of white soft paraffin and liquid paraffin in equal proportions—providing an intensive moisturising barrier that locks in moisture and prevents further skin dehydration.
This ointment is suitable for a variety of skin conditions, including eczema, psoriasis, dermatitis, ichthyosis, and other forms of dry or scaly skin. Thanks to its simple, preservative-free formulation, Fifty:50 Ointment is gentle enough for use on babies, children, adults and the elderly.
It is an ideal choice for use as a daily moisturiser, bath additive or soap substitute, especially during flare-ups or cold, dry weather. Its occlusive properties help soften and smooth the skin while reducing itchiness, flaking, and cracking.
Price range: £3.99 through £6.99
