Some colloidal oatmeal products can be used to soothe dry skin on the face.
However, you should read the patient information leaflet that comes with your product carefully, to be sure it’s safe for you to use in that area.
If you experience dry skin on your face regularly or have eczema, dermatitis, or another dry skin condition on your face, you should speak to your doctor or pharmacist so they can recommend a product that will be right for you.
If your product is suitable to use on your face, you should still remember to avoid contact with your eyes, inside your nose and mouth, or other sensitive areas.
There are some products which contain colloidal oatmeal that are suitable for babies’ sensitive skin, for example, the Aveeno Baby range.
This range includes cleansers, emollient creams, and body washes.
If you’re unsure whether colloidal oatmeal products are suitable for your baby, speak to your doctor or pharmacist before using these products.
