E45 Moisturiser Body Face and Hand Cream for Dry Skin - Intensive Care

In this review the E45 Moisturiser is presented as a straightforward, no-frills solution for people struggling with dry, flaky skin. The bottom line: it is best for those who need a heavy-duty, fragrance-free cream for eczema-prone or sunburnt skin and who value moisturizer quality without greasiness. Most reviewers praise its emollient, protective feel and low scent profile, making it a reliable daily option, though a minority report packaging issues that affect perceived value.

Key Features

• Multiuse formulation: Can be applied to the body, face and hands to relieve dry, flaky skin and provide broad hydration for sensitive areas.
• Suitable for skin conditions: Often recommended for eczema and dry psoriasis because it soothes and helps restore a protective skin barrier.
• Non-greasy finish: Customers highlight a lack of heavy grease, which makes it comfortable for daytime use under clothing or light makeup.
• Scent-free: The cream is effectively unscented, beneficial for anyone with sensitivity to fragrances.
• Value size: The 500g tub offers a large quantity for regular use, appealing to households that need frequent reapplication.

Who It's For

This moisturizer is aimed at people with persistently dry or sensitive skin who need a dependable, fragrance-free cream for daily use. It is particularly well suited to those managing eczema, dry psoriasis patches or post-sunburn dryness, and to households that prefer a single product for body, face and hands.

Shoppers who dislike tubs or who require a pump dispenser for hygiene may want to look elsewhere, and anyone seeking a lightweight or cosmetic face-only moisturizer with added fragrance or active anti-ageing ingredients should consider specialist facial products instead.
