General Information





Product introduction
Apply Liquid Parafin to the affected areas of the skin as directed by your doctor, usually 1–2 times daily or as needed. Gently massage it into clean, dry skin until it is fully absorbed. Regular use helps keep the skin moisturized and prevents dryness from returning. For best results, apply it after bathing or washing when the skin is still slightly damp, as this helps lock in moisture.
Liquid Parafin is generally well tolerated. However, some people may experience mild skin irritation, redness, itching, or a greasy feeling at the application site. These effects are usually mild and temporary. If irritation persists or worsens, stop using the cream and consult your doctor.
For external use only. Avoid contact with the eyes, mouth, and broken or infected skin unless advised by a doctor. If accidental contact occurs, rinse thoroughly with water. Do not apply large amounts to damaged skin unless directed by a healthcare professional. If you have known allergies to any ingredients in the cream, avoid using it and seek medical advice.
Uses of Liquid Parafin Solution
Benefits of Liquid Parafin Solution
Dry skin occurs when the skin lacks adequate moisture, leading to roughness, flaking, and discomfort. Liquid Parafin helps lock in moisture by forming a protective layer on the skin surface. This reduces water loss, improves skin softness, and relieves dryness-related irritation, supporting healthier-looking and more comfortable skin.

How to use Liquid Parafin Solution
How Liquid Parafin Solution works
Quick tips
- Apply a thin layer of Liquid Parafin immediately after bathing to lock in moisture and improve hydration for very dry or scaly skin.
- Avoid using Liquid Parafin near open flames or smoking, as it is highly flammable, and even residual amounts on clothing or bedding can ignite.
- Do not overapply or layer with other greasy products, as this may clog pores or worsen acne-prone skin.
- Tell your doctor if you have skin infections or oozing lesions, as this medicine can trap bacteria and delay healing.
- Gently pat skin dry before application, especially in skin folds, to reduce the risk of maceration or fungal growth.
