Cetraben Emollient Cream 150G Pump

Excellent product.

I am a 55 year old diabetes mellitus, I have varicose veins on my left leg due to martial arts in earlier life. The skin has become very thin over a section of the varicose vein. I several times have had steroid cream which works excellently and clears up the eczema that I get from time to time at a recent visit to the doctor's let's say 12 months ago he said I could no longer have steroid cream because the skin was too thin and he "was worried about it", He was worried about it ? I was definitely more worried about it! I searched online and came across this cream I tried it and to my absolute delight it works. I have absolutely no idea why the doctor didn't recommend this or similar product but like I said I am absolutely delighted and very very grateful that this product exists if you have eczema and in particular eczema on varicose veins and you too cannot have steroids and this is absolutely a life saving cream. if you try this cream I sincerely hope it works for you and I wish the makers of this product all the success. I am so grateful to you.

Excellent quality , wear over serum and it sits lovely . Only been using a short while but noticeable difference . Been using on +++ dry elbow skin and it very effective. Have some very expensive moisturisers but I’m preferring this one , excellent value for money

This cream is great for my eczema and has stopped the itch completely however I have only given 4 stars as the packaging needs some work. It’s a great size for handbags but it doesn’t always work and you have no way of knowing whether it is empty or just not pumping properly. Sometimes it’s fine and sometimes I have to pump 10 times or more just to get a tiny amount of cream out.

so far so good. Only 3 applications but redness and itching already calming down. 😀

I was given this brand by the hospital to use as a moisturizer on scar tissue after surgery. When it ran out, I tried using Nivea and Vaseline, but both caused redness and soreness. I then bought Cetraben off the Amazon site and the scarring settled down again. One day I finished work and left the cream in the office in error. When I realised my mistake, I couldn't be bothered to go all the way back to the office to retrieve it, so I thought I'd try the pharmacy in ASDA. The young bloke at the counter had obviously never heard of emollient cream and said that they didn't stock it. I told him that I thought they must stock it and he asked me if emollient was the brand name. I replied that it was the generic name and that my preferred brand was Cetraben. Before he had a chance to say they didn't stock it again, I asked him to get the pharmacist. Surprise, surprise, they DID stock it and it only costs £2.52 to buy over the counter.

This cream is the only thing that heals my hands! I'm a tradesman and so my hands take quite a bit of abuse at work which in the winter leaves them really dry, cracking and bleeding, this is the only cream that actually cures them! They were back to normal within a week. I have tried previously E45 and Sudocrem which after weeks of use did nothing. The cream itself is also a nice consistency and rubs in nicely without staying on top of your skin and making your hands greasy. For the size of the bottle too it lasts for ages!

As an eczema sufferer I have used this product for several years now and it is amazing. However, on three seperate occasions the pump dispenser has come away from the base and it's impossible to either put it back together or to even unscrew or remove the top part and therefore impossible to get to the cream in any way. It's very disappointing when the product is brand new and unusable as it's not particularly cheap.
