Frequently asked questions
What is sorbolene cream used for?
Sorbolene cream is a multi-purpose moisturiser used for daily hydration of dry skin, soothing eczema-prone and sensitive skin, as a gentle soap-free cleanser, and as a makeup remover. Its fragrance-free, non-ionic formula makes it especially suitable for people who react to harsh detergents and fragranced products.
Can sorbolene be used as a face wash?
Yes — sorbolene with glycerine is widely used as a gentle soap-free face wash. Apply to wet skin, work into a light lather, and rinse off. It removes dirt and excess oil without stripping the skin’s natural moisture barrier, making it suitable for sensitive and eczema-prone faces.
Is sorbolene cream good for eczema?
Sorbolene with 10% glycerine is commonly recommended by Australian pharmacists for daily moisturising of eczema-prone skin between flare-ups. Its fragrance-free, non-ionic formula minimises the risk of triggering reactions. For active flare-ups, follow your doctor’s prescribed treatment alongside daily sorbolene moisturising.
Can children use sorbolene cream?
Sorbolene with glycerine is suitable for daily use on children over 6 months. For infants under 6 months, consult a pharmacist or GP before regular use. Many parents use sorbolene as a gentle alternative to baby washes and lotions.
