Would somebody mind listing the full ingredients as the description on amazon is confusing(contains parabens) but reviewers are saying it doesn't. Ta.

white soft paraffin, light liquid paraffin, emulsifing wax, cetostearyl alcohol, glycerol, phenoxyethanol, citric acid monohydrate, trisodium citrate dihydrate, purified water

Hi if been given cetraben cream of my dry skin due to the menopause I don't think it's working could recommend something different a sits really getti

I'm an older guy whose skin is drying out and cracking, and therefore more prone infections. My GP gave me first Dermol 500 and subsequently Cetrabene when I showed no progress with the Dermol 500, after picking up a persistent skin infection in the heat of southern France a year ago.It has taken the best part of a year for the infection to completely clear while using the Cetrabene, but I was warned that it would not be quick - stick with it.On washing - I still use the Dermol for washing my hair and showering, and a simple soap for washing my hands and face (on my GP's recommendation) to avoid drying my skin unnecessarily and undoing what the Cetrabene has let my body achieve.

Hi what is the best before date on this please?

These are very well dated.. Mine is 02/2021..it is on the bottom at the back of the cannister..

Can anyone confirm that this is non sticky and will not stick to clothes and bedsheets

I've had no issues with it sticking to anything. Just give it a couple of minutes, before putting on clothes and getting into bed.

Well worth it

Really helps the eczema on my face. Easy to dispense and I can keep it on the bed side table to apply at night. Good value for money.

Great cream

Prompt delivery Great quality and good value for money. No nasty smell like others. Nice easy using bottle with cap lock to ensure no accidental dripping. After it has absorbed into the skin it does not leave it greasy. I use this daily as I have very sensitive skin and can’t have anything to really other than this. Very effective! No issues with product - would recommend 👍🏼

Amazing stuff!

I love this cream, had a severe flare up of my psoriasis and had tried many creams/steroids this was the only one that worked. Have to say keep applying every few hours but defo a thumbs up for me.

Good for sensitive skin. Also a great neutral base for essential oils!

The positives: I have very dry and sensitive skin, so got this unperfumed cream to help it stay soft. It works very nicely as a base for essential oils. I put 3-4 drops of lavender essential oil in my palm and then pump out some of this cream to mix it with and apply to my face before sleeping. So this helped with both: falling asleep (I used to have trouble with this) and keeping the skin soft and unblemished. Since the cream is a bit 'dense' and heavy, the oil also helps to dilute it and make it easier to rub in. This is a good sized bottle: it's lasted for a year and is only 1/4 empty. So the bottle probably lasts for at least 2 years, depending on how much you use it. A very useful detail in the design: the bottle has a nozzle which twists to lock, which means I can keep it in my bedside drawer without worrying about accidental spills. On the downside: Have to say the cream works nicely overnight, but skin is still dry after the next time I've taken a warm shower - so doesn't make that much of a difference to skin moisture when used long term. Can also be a bit greasy to put on in the morning before going out.
