Product Information
Alpha Keri Oil moisturises dry skin by improving the hydrating properties of the bath or shower. The stratum corneum (protective outer skin layer) is hydrated during bathing or showering. Soaking in an Alpha Keri Oil bath or applying Alpha Keri Oil to wet skin after showering leaves an emollient film on the skin that helps retain the moisture the stratum corneum has taken up during the bath or shower.
Alpha Keri Oil is a completely water dispersible bath and shower oil. Alpha Keri Oil doesn't form globules on the water surface and, consequently, it spreads evenly and uniformly over the skin to provide a moisture-retaining barrier to protect skin against dryness and irritations. In other words, the uniform dispersal of the oil in the water makes possible an even layer of oil to be deposited on the skin.
Alpha Keri Oil can be used for the relief of atopic dermatitis, pruritus senilis, neurodermatitis, ichthyosis, soap dermatitis, eczematous dermatitis and other conditions manifesting dry, pruritic epidermis. It is also suitable for Infants with prickly heat, nappy rash, atopic dermatitis and dry scaly skin.
Alpha Keri Oil also gently cleanses the skin.
The use of Alpha Keri Oil in bath water(1), and when applied to wet skin immediately after showering(2) have been clinically documented to be effective in the treatment of dry skin and in reducing the severity of xerosis.
