This Doublebase Wash Gel is a treatment that is intended to be used instead of other soaps when washing the hands. The advantage of this gel over other cleaners is the fact that this does not cause skin irritation. This is useful for anyone who is suffering from skin conditions such as eczema or psoriasis. The active ingredients in this gel are liquid paraffin and isopropyl myristate, which work by moisturising the skin and helping to prevent moisture loss and causing dry skin.
